Sol Republic Tracks Air

Cordless ; Customisable due to removable band ; Soft speaker pads

Struggle a bit at loud volume ; Overall emphasis on mid-range

The aim of the Tracks Air headphones is to offer a better overall listening experience through wireless connectivity, and to allow users the freedom to customise their look via different coloured headbands. As for sound quality, they are decent, but...

Sol Republic’s Tracks Air lacked the kind of finesse we look for in a $200 pair of headphones. But for the casual listener, they offer plenty of clarity up top, a full midrange, and that warm, punchy lower register that made the original Tracks such a...

Powerful audio performance with no distortion on deep bass at high volumes. NFC and Bluetooth enabled. Comfortable design. Detachable cable with inline microphone and remote for mobile devices. Solid battery life.

Boosted bass is a bit over-the-top, and the highs are pretty sculpted, too, often resulting in an unbalanced mix.

So, if you love seriously boosted sub-bass, you will like the Tracks Air. If you'd rather have a slightly more balanced approach to bass response in a Bluetooth pair, both the Harman Kardon BT and the in-ear JayBird BlueBuds X offer solid low frequency...

Modular design sprinkles a level of personalization ; It’s a hip looking pair of headphones ; Tight fit makes it great for physical activity ; Strong emphasis with the low audio range

Prolonged usage makes it uncomfortable to wear ; Sound engine speakers can’t be placed too low on the headband ; Requires separate left & right speaker cables for wired connection

Priced at $199.99, the SOL Republic Tracks Air is right there in the thick of battle – where it’s competing against an assortment of similarly priced, stylish models. Undeniably unique looking for a pair of wireless Bluetooth headphones, its modular...

On tracks with tremendous sub-bass content, like the Knife’s “Silent Shout,” the Tracks Air does not distort, even at top volumes on both the headphones and the sound source (in this case an iPhone 5s). As we have learned to more or less expect from...
