THUMP PRO Black 1GB/Black Iridium (05-173)

THUMP PRO Black 1GB/Black Iridium (05-173)

h2. THUMP PRO MP3 Sunglasses We took the premium sound, patented optics and all-day comfort of THUMP 2 and engineered them in a completely new architecture. This sport design is even more lightweight, and it adds the durability of sweat resistance and the convenience of interchangeable lenses. THUMP PRO launches a new era in sport training. Coaches and trainers know that athletes have one-track minds — at any given moment, the human brain is focused on a single thing. Divert attention from the burn of exertion and your training will find a whole new level. That's why we invented THUMP PRO, digital music eyewear in a sport design that fuels your training session with the music that moves you. Whether you're running, biking or pushing your potential with any kind of workout, THUMP PRO sunglasses will help you find your limits and just as easily ignore them. Athletes have endured the “ball and chain” of portable players for a quarter of a century. Cords dangle. Wires tangle. The base unit knocks around. The speakers jam into the ears and completely block out the environment with an all-or-nothing design. Oakley solved all these problems. THUMP PRO combines three decades of Oakley optical innovation with the convenience and performance of cutting-edge audio. This isn't just a state-of-the-art song player or a world-class optical instrument. This is a training tool that brings out the athlete in you. Its crystal clear sound bathes the brain in music that lets you endure the burn and take your training to the next level. MEDIA The ability to store up to 240 songs on the 1 GB version, 120 songs on the 512 MB version, or 60 songs on the 256 MB version. Supported storage of data files along with song files. Compatibility with iTunes®, Windows Media Player®, WinAMP® and other popular music jukebox programs that use AAC, MP3, WMA or even Audible® file format. Included Hi-Speed USB 2.0 cable for transferring song files from Mac® or Windows® PC AUDIO 75MHz DSP with 18-bit Sigma Delta DAC for premium audio fidelity. Custom Mylar® speakers with six directions of movement Fully adjustable fit that lets you control the balance of music and environment. OPTICS HIGH DEFINITION OPTICS® (HDO®) offers unbeatable clarity, backed by patented innovations that serve the world's best athletes. Impact resistant PLUTONITE® lens material filters out 100% of all UV, and the rimless design means there's nothing to block your downward view. That's a critical advantage in activities like running and cycling. Lens contours that maximize protection against sun, wind and side impact. Materials and geometries that meet or exceed all ANSI Z87.1 standards for optical clarity and impact resistance. Adapt to any sport environment with user-changeable accessory lenses. FRAME 5 control buttons, intuitively placed for fast easy access Sweat resistant frame features UNOBTAINIUM® components that actually increase grip with perspiration. You no longer have to worry about your music player moving when you do. Durable and lightweight O MATTER® frame material for an overall weight that's about half as much as ordinary players. BATTERY Up to 6 hours of playback time on a single charge, enough to power you through your most grueling training session. Charge Time 3.0 hours. Fast charge (80% capacity) in 1.5 hours Three-color indicator light to show battery level.

A Wise Investment
Date: August 14, 2009
Pros: Optimal clarity, Great sound quality, Ample storage, Good battery life

I purchased these sunglasses a little over a year ago, and I've been extremely satisfied with them the whole way. In the beginning, the ear buds and arms take a while to get used to, as they exert some pressure, but once you get used to it after nearly 24/7 use, the real journey begins.

It holds more than enough songs to listen to while on a day trip, but I just keep different folders on the computer to exchange the selection once in a while to counteract the 'not enough songs' issue.

The only flaw I've noticed with these is that the sockets for the ear buds are prone to wearing out, and won't stay in your ear for long, but I shipped them back out to Oakley, and with their excellent customer service, I received them with new lenses (to replace the ones I had scratched to bits with extreme use) and BOTH arms and ear buds replaced for $50.

In all, a great investment for the active lifestyle.
