Newport 2014: Pendulumic, making good things easier?
I’m currently using a wired headset at work for conference calls and other pursuits that require headphones, and trying out the Stance S1 definitely had me contemplating whether it might be time for a replacement. Frankly, even if they didn’t sound that great, the comfort and ease of use in comparison to my current headset would be seriously tempting: the headphones sat comfortably on my head with just the right amount of squeeze, and I had no sense that I was going to lose them if I turned around too fast or ducked under my desk for a dropped pen. With the limited listening time I was able to dedicate to them at the show, however, I feel pretty comfortable in saying they are very much competitive with other similarly priced headphones out there, and definitely offer a crisper and sonically richer listening experience than other wireless headsets I’ve tried. As shocking as this may sound coming from a self-professed audiophile, I LOVE products that make my life easier, and the ease of use and flexibility here make these headphones a very appealing tool.
