Eeeehhhhh that depends.
I work delivering food on a bicycle. I need to be able to hear things. Would be nice if I could listing to my playlists and not drown out the car coming my way.
May I suggest checking these out? https://shokz.com/products/openrunpro
Not affiliated, just like mine for when I need to keep my ears completely open. Audio quality is surprisingly good, but also never going to compete with something whose sole purpose is to sound good i.e. non-sporty headphones.
Bike riding is perfect for these bone conducting headphones, you can listen to tunes while hearing absolutely everything.
180 US for 10 hours of battery life and, allegedly, a full titanium body. That’s honestly reasonable.
Now the real question is; do they ship to Denmark? I’ll have to check that out after work.
Seems like only the US is available. I am also curious about a product like this that’d deliver to Sweden.
The bose quietcomfort ones do that and more. You can choose if you want to block out external sounds with ANC or enable pass-through so you can hear the world around you. Not sure why they needed to make this product.
Passthrough doesn’t work well on a bike when there’s wind rushing past the microphones that record the passthrough sound. This product fixes that.
