H2O Audio, a specialist in waterproof audio technology, has unveiled the TRI 2 Multi-Sport Series – billed as ‘the most advanced bone conduction waterproof headphones to date.’
Available in two models – TRI 2 and TRI 2 PRO – the range features a new proprietary bone conduction acoustics design, extended battery life, and a lightweight, soft silicone finish. The headphones also feature improved button placement among other advancements.
The TRI 2 PRO includes H2O Audio’s patent-pending PLAYLIST+ technology. This allows users to download and store streaming music directly onto their headphones for offline play, even underwater.
The TRI 2 Multi-Sport Series is available on H2O Audio’s website and will be at Best Buy and Amazon in September. The TRI 2 is priced at $179.99 and the TRI 2 PRO at US$199.99. Both models come with a protective carrying case.
