DESCRIPTION
The SwiMP3 v2
underwater MP3 player is an incredible audio experience. Imagine listening to hours of your own music during your swim workout. The SwiMP3's innovative sound transfer technology offers exception underwater sound quality. Standard players rely on the transmission of sound through air or water causing the swimmer to perceive only muffled noise. The SwiMP3 uses bone conduction - the direct transfer of sound vibrations from the cheek bone to the inner ear - to provide the swimmer with exceptional sound clarity. The SwiMP3 is fully waterproof and can be used with all the competitive swim strokes.

How Does It Work?
The new SwiMP3 is revolutionary in that it relies on bone conduction of sound. When the device is placed on any bones of the skull (i.e. the cheek bones or the mastoid tip) it leads to vibration of the fluid in the inner ear. Thus swimmers can enjoy clarity of sound with the SwiMP3 device that was never before possible. Bone conduction hearing is a safe, well-established hearing mechanism in humans that the SwiMP3 player leverages to enhance aquatic activity. Finis's application of the technology brings an entirely new level of experience to swimmers, either while working out or taking a leisurely swim.

Safe and Proven Technology
Bone conduction hearing is essentially an ancient sensory capability that the new SwiMP3 leverages to enhance the experience of swimmers, triathletes, surfers, synchronized swimmers and anyone involved in general water activities. It is a safe, proven technology that the SwiMP3 offers to the wide audience of aquatic athletes.

    Bought for a child that swims competitively, but too heavy for goggle straps. Works better on adults.
    Only good to 10 feet, not for diving.

    Comments about Finis Waterproof Swim MP3 V.2:

    Trying to get into swimming. Running is alot easier with an ipod, so why not swimming.
    after lots of research i found this.
    it doesnt nearly have the best audio, but definitely works. I can swim 30 minutes now without paying attention to the clock.
    so definitely worth it.

      Comments about Finis Waterproof Swim MP3 V.2:

      I use my SwimP3 v.1 several times a week for 30-45 minute lap swimming sessions. I find that it improves my lap counting and rhythm. I seem to have fewer periods of mind-wandering, and I know by the music where I am in my workout. I have had excellent battery life by waiting until the SwimP3 stops playing, then allowing it to charge for several hours. I usually get about four to five hours of play time per charge. My version 1 is wearing out, so I'm shopping for a v.2!
