In case you missed it, Polk Audio, which made a name for itself in the speaker world, announced a new line of UltraFit sports headphones
back in June. Now all four new models have started shipping to
retailers and should be available by the end of this month, if not
sooner.
The line includes a mix of in-ear, on-ear, and in-ear-canal models that
come in a variety of colors and range in price from $49.95 to $99.95.
The three in-ear models look fairly similar but simply get swankier (and
presumably sound better) as you step up in price.
Polk is touting the 'phones sturdy design, good sound quality, and
touches like "tangle-free contrast-colored cables for instant left/right
recognition" and an iPhone-friendly integrated three-button remote
control and microphone (should work with
Android models, too). No models, however, offer wireless Bluetooth connectivity.
