 No self-destruct so farAug 24, 2010
Having shorted out the Plantronics and Motorola S9-HD Bluetooth headphones in fairly short order, I've spent the summer running with the NuForce BT-Sport pair without difficulty. They sound fine, they're actually pretty comfortable, and the sensitive electronics (so far) seem to be far enough away from the rivulets of sweat I produce huffing up the hill that I have not yet fried the circuitry. I find the buttons a bit non-intuitive (hold down the power button to get the phone in voice command mode, and really hold it down a long time to shut the headphones off), but that's a bit of a quibble.
Near perfectJul 11, 2010
I was quite pleased with these headphones after having trouble with other brands. Most importantly, these hold the bluetooth connection well with no dropouts when on the treadmill or in other noisy RF environments. Additionally, the connection which goes around your neck is very flexible, meaning these will fit heads of many sizes. I also like the way the strain reliefs are built for the speakers - they seem like they will last longer than other headphones, but only time will tell.
I have few complaints about these. They do flop around a bit more than I would like, although I think that's a curse of most bluetooth headphones, since they must have a receiver and battery on board. Additionally, the microphone for the headset functionality is extremely quiet, but I bought these only to use as headphones so that's OK with me.
Bravo! I hope NuForce keeps improving and there will be something even better in a year or two when I buy a new pair.

The way to go for BT headphones.Jun 07, 2010
I burned through pair after pair of Apple headphones because the only time I wore them was while working out (and they would get sweat in the switch, causing them to short). After owning (and loving) a pair of Nuforce NE-7M's (although I'd never wear them while working out, because I'm sure they'd short because of the switch), I turned to Nuforce for some BT headphones. I assumed that since they were being touted as BT-Sports that they'd be water resistant enough to withstand workouts. The build quality of these is superb, as is the quality of customer service. The sound quality is as good as I believe it can be over current BT standards. The one shortcoming with these is their lack of full iPhone, but obviously I can get over that since they clearly said so when I purchased them. Overall, I'd highly recommend these if you need a pair of headphones whose wires won't get in the way, and if you need something to withstand working out, working outdoors, or doing anything that'd cause other smartphone headsets to short.

 Great performance and valueMay 05, 2010
These bluetooth headphones are a perfect match with the iPod Touch. Once unpacked and charged, the iPod immediately paired with the headphones and I was listening in under a minute.
Note that there is a volume adjustment on the headphones as well as on the BT-device (iPod) -- use the two to find a "happy setting" so that there is no audible hiss (took less than 2 minutes to tune once I realized that I should adjust the volume on the headphones).
About the only downside is that the 'phones don't come with a case, but that is probably best left to personal taste.
No BT range issues around a room/office.
While not true "audiophile", these headphones are a significant cut above typical headphones -- NuForce makes some very high-end audio equipment and the attention to sonic detail is carried through into these headphones.

Nuforce BT-Sports (White)Apr 15, 2010
I bought these knowing that Nuforce made high-end stereo equipment. I also own wired microphone stereo earphones, which easily beat out anything I had heard before. The BT-Sports came with several rubberized ear-pieces, I use the small, so they fit snugly and don't wiggle about. I use them almost everyday, they are extremely handy. Big enough, to not misplace them, unobtrusive enough laying on the back of my neck that they do not hinder movement, unless you are wearing a heavy winter jacket. Collared shirts are a breeze. The sound of music cannot compare to the wired pair, but what does come forth is quite nice. The controls on each side are easy to manipulate, and worked flawlessly right away with my 8230 Blackberry. It holds a very long charge, and cannot argue with the manufacturers claim. I have had some sporadic problems with dropped notes when the BT loses the signal during music sessions, and some lost words in conversations. I cannot be certain it is the Blackberry or Sports.
