CONCLUSION

   Our testing methodology used to test wireless headphones is pretty much the same with the one we use to test normal headphones so once again we used two Audio/Video Amplifiers, 2 MP3/4 players, the Creative X-Fi Titanium HD and several smartphones to test the Pulse Headphones both in wireless and wired mode. The Pulse produced very clear and crisp mids with quite good highs and equally good and deep bass (more would be nice however) but compared for example to the Revo Wireless by Jabra it does fall short and that also applies for its build quality. However that's quite normal since these two headphones belong in different price categories so the results didn't really surprise us. Moving on surprisingly enough the microphone worked extremely well and almost on par with some of the best we've tested including that of the Jabra Revo while the Lithium Polymer battery did manage to keep the Pulse going for a total of 6 and a half hours which is much better than most wireless headphones out there (A.M.P says 8 hours but obviously not at the same volume levels). The only slight problem we came across with the Pulse Wireless Portable Headphones is their joints which are very soft so even if you just hold the set from one side chances are that it will fold and that may get even worse after a long time.

   Bluetooth wireless headphones don't come cheap most of the time and that applies even more for brand new ones like the Pulse Wireless Mobile Headphones which currently retail at USD149.95 inside the USA (Amazon.com) and 105Euros inside the EU (Amazon.co.uk). For some people even this price tag will look hefty but considering that for example the Jabra Revo Wireless costs almost twice as much we think that for people who are not looking to spend that much the Pulse is a very nice alternative not only because of their audio quality but also because of their size and weight. Overall the Pulse Wireless Mobile Headphones may not bring something new on the table but they look very nice, are quite small, have very good battery life and offer good balanced audio and these are more than enough for us to give them our Golden Award.
