Bluetooth Stereo Headphones

The ability to privately listen to music or spoken word via headphones wherever you go is one of life’s great luxuries. Making mobile audio even sweeter however are the Plantronics Pulsar 590A Bluetooth Stereo Headphones. Operating on bluetooth technology, the Pulsar 590A is essentially a wireless stereo device that lets you hear stereo audio without the usual hassle of cords. In addition, the wireless headphones can function as a hands free cell headset which allows you to answer calls without touching your mobile phone. It’s about time… I’ve waited for that feature for along time now.

The Plantronics Pulsar 590A comes in two basic easy to setup parts. The main section is a beautiful over the head unit made from silver and black plastic (says the box). The right ear cup has the call answer, mute, and volume up/down buttons along with a telescoping microphone which is neat. Backing this up is a universal bluetooth adapter and also a small, flat cradle with power cord to charge the rechargeable batteries for the wireless stereo headset and the adapter.

The Plantronics Pulsar 590A is very easy to use. First, we followed the simple directions/manual for pairing the bluetooth device wireless headset , then the set to my cell phone (you’ll need to do this once when first using. With that finished, we connected it to my MP3 player using just its standard headphone jack. With all devices involved on and linked, we casually put everything in my pocket and walked out the door. While walking the streets of New York, I was grooving and able to listen to all my music in stereo with surprisingly solid audio quality. The two volume buttons are a tad small but didn’t come up as a big problem and I got a big hand. When a call came through, the Pulsar automatically cut out the music and chimed a unique alert. I just simply answered by pressing the answer button once. Once the call was done, the Pulsar resumed music playback by itself which is perfect for many situations such as in the gym and etc… Battery life also proved to be good in testing. The audio played with perfect clarity through the Plantronics 590A continuously over a period of about 11hr without having to recharge. This is not to shabby at all if you ask me especially for the cost of the headphones – one of the best bang for your buck.
