Soundwave MP3 Player is Waterproof

by Mark R

Sure, everyone loves their iPod or MP3 player, but just in case you want to take your tunes swimming, water-skiing, or any other aqua sport, you will need something that is submersible.

Fortunately, the Soundwave from Freestyle Audio has you covered. The Soundwave is an MP3 Player that can go underwater for about 10 feet. It is also shock-resistant, yet is lightweight enough to float in water.

The Soundwave supports MP3, WMA, and protected WMA (DRM) files. It has 2GB of flash memory, which is sufficient enough to hold about 600 songs. It even has an FM tuner with both channel and equalizer presets. The Soundwave also has a built-in rechargeable battery that makes it capable of up to 18 hours of playtime per charge.

Well all that is well and good, but in order to have a water proof MP3 player, you need waterproof headphones, right? Fortunately, the Soundwave is also covered for that with waterproof earphones good for 10 feet of submersion. It also has an armband so you won’t lose it in the water.

So if you’re the type that likes a little “water music”, you should be able to purchase the Soundwave waterproof MP3 Player for about $90.

Might be cool for swimming. Kind of silly that this company does not have a pair of water proof headphones to go along with it.
