The Sol Republic Relays have it all. You can wear them during extreme activity and not worry about them falling out or breaking from sweat, and you can wear them any other time and appreciate their rich audio experience. There’s a one-year warranty so...

Clear and articulate ; Low price ; Sweat resistant

Slight hardness to upper mids/treble ; Cool mids
