I bought these headphones to use with my Bounty Hunter Metal Detector. They do what they are designed to do. They help cut out outside noise and make it easy for you to hear those faint noises that are important when hunting for underground treasures. It takes a little bit of getting used to, but after a few days they are quite comfortable. Remember, they are for use with a Metal Detector only.

When researching metal detectors before buying a Bounty Hunter Tracker IV for a Christmas gift, I learned that using earphones with the detector not only makes hearing the "beeps" much easier, but also extends the battery life of the battery in the detector. We live in a windy, windy canyon area, so I knew the earphones were a necessity because of the constant wind noise. My husband says that the earphones effectively screen out noise that would overpower the emissions from the detector if he weren't wearing the headset. He's a happy camper with his Bounty Hunter Tracker IV and the Bounty Hunter stereo earphones.

I have only been metal detecting for a few months now, but with these new headphones I have found coins and rings on places I have already gone over. Check them out you'll love them.Bounty Hunter Metal Detector Headphone

Good fit and adjustable for any one. Very sensitive and volume control is easy to adjust to the outside noises.

Ordered this product to go with the Bounty Hunter Fast Tracker Metal Detector. If you don't want to disturb the neighbors when searching for treasures in your back yard, this is the product for you.

These headphones have great sound allowing you to here what your detector picks up.
Three things I did not like about this product are:
1, The cups hirt my ears, they dont fit completly over your ears instead they press down on you ears to seal out outside noise. after wearing them for a while they got to be uncomfortable. i suppose if you have small ears that would not be a problem.
2, The headphone cord is not a coiled type and It yanked out of my detector several times when I went down to retreive my targets.
3, The volume control is in a location that was not convenient for me to clip it so It stayed out of the way. I had to re-clip it on my pocket several times as the clip tention did not seem strong enough to hold it securly.

Bought a pair for use with my Bounty Hunter metal detector. On the plus side they are very comfortable and have good sound quality. The cord is a thin wire without coils. The volume control hangs up on everything it gets close to, including the detector. If the volume control was closer to the headphones and it had a sturdy coiled cord, it would be a great headphone. But as it is it is not worth the aggravation.

We bought these headphones to go with our Garret Ace 250 metal detector that we purchased for our 9yr son.

These headphones fit his head nicely. The connector has an adapter for the larger headphone jack required by the metal detector, but when you take it off, the headphones can be used with iPods, DS's etc. Sometimes, our son plugs them into his Nintendo DS. The ear-covering headphones are more comfortable for him than ear-buds.

Sound seems good enough and they feel well made.

I recieved the headphones this week and hooked them up to my fast tracker and went out into the yard looking for treasure. They work great and I was very pleased with the quality of the product and the sound.If you have a fast track metal detector you need to purchase this accessory it is made to adapt to all bounty fast track models.

This isn't really a review of the product, but just as a warning, don't buy these headphones thinking they're for stereo equipment. These are metal detector headphones - I have no idea what the previous reviewer was talking about..Consider this a fair warning for otherwise dubious equipment.
