You're looking at the world's first in-the-ear, high fidelity, [noise-isolating, wireless Bluetooth stereo earphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ath-cks50tw2); yeah, that's a mouth full.

The **[Etymotic Ety8](http://www.etymotic.com)** claims to have highly accurate sound reproduction and unsurpassed noise exclusion. The ety8 earphones have a Made-for-iPod adapter that is compatible with most iPods. These earphones support A2DP and AVRCP profiles and Bluetooth 2.0, and they can be paired with Bluetooth stereo enabled computers and mobile phones that have these profiles.

It's exceptionally small and believe it or not, the battery's charge lasts 7-10 hours.

You can listen & control your iPod from up to 30 feet away.

This is something motorcycle riders like me crave for. I wonder if I can both play music from the Ipod and get a phone call from my cell at thesame time... Very neat! I want one.
