The verdict
The House of Marley Uplift 2 Wireless is one of few neckband style earbuds still floating around, and if you can find it, the Uplift 2 Wireless is a good deal for $59 USD. The IPX4 rating makes it resistant to sweat and the lightweight build makes it easy to travel with. Still, not all is perfect here: the cables dangle freely, which gets annoying fast.
