I'm now in the market for a set of bluetooth earphones (IEMs) with a budget of £150.

Are there any within this budget which can be recommended? Preferably not bass heavy, no hard 'collar' but like having a cable between the earbuds and built in remote.

I'm currently considering the Bose SoundSport Bluetooth but I'm wondering if similar or better quality can be found for less:

Thank you.

My recommendation is this:
- Buy GOOD HEADPHONES
- Buy a Bluetooth Receiver/Receptor

- Sold everything together and voilá... yout own AND BETTER Bluetooth Headphones.

That was my preferred option, except most of the adapters I've seen/tried had one flaw or another e.g. older BT standard, L/R audio flipped, no clip, no controls, volume too loud, etc.

Well yes, technical issues here and there.
But I think that, if you can solder or have decent soldering skills you can make your DREAM headphones for much cheaper than already made BT Headphones.

I tend to buy Headphones in the Flea Market near my house. Sometimes I get them much cheaper than half a dollar.
Sometimes they just need soldering. But once I fix them, I can have another nice pair of Headphones.

Sadly I'm lacking them.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
