Burton Audio Stroll Down Speaker Jacket: Snowmodo Review

The Gadget : It ’s a wonder that the shoulder mounted manna from heaven box did not evolve into the music acoustic projection cap . Either means , here ’s a puffy one for snowboarding , with a mini amp and speaker system in the hood .

damage : $ 419

How it savor : The speaker system is loud enough to share music with those in faithful proximity on the slopes , or a couple of seats over on the lift . The 3AAA powered camp sits in a pocket and sends up conducting wire to the footling flatish egg like speakers on both sides of the hood . They seem very weather resistive , from the cloth covering to the little speaker system holes . electric battery lifespan is 10 hours , but good news — when your battery pack dies , your ipod or whatever you ’ve got plugged into the mini jack , will still be as tacky as a set of earpiece , without gain . At this volume , only the people next to you will hear the sound , about the volume you get when you ’re on the coach and a person ’s headphone are crank up . This is a far better and simpler solvent — things necessary on the mountain — than the old complicated ribbon cable and bluetooth motorola audex jackets which fundamentally unplugged when you moved too much and ran out of batteries and conk out on you often .

The jacket itself is down filled , and waterproofed on the outside . It ’s very very fond and better for tedious movers on cold low raspberry days where you do n’t have any chance or occupy about lather build up . There are nether region zips for cooling , of course of action , but down is hot , and this crown is no exception . You ’ll have to grapple with the drafty pits and the heating build up on your core in sure places wearing this jacket , like with any down shell . The waterproofness and breath factor are rate at 10,000 mm 5000 g , which is mid eminent on waterproofing , using Burton ’s 3 level dryride shell but the breathability , as I pronounce above , is not as great as you ’d get on a unlined shell . There ’s a zip and snap jacket to pant interface to avoid snowfall wedgie on pow day . I love riding in tempest , when the tourist go home and the overpriced waterproof outdoor crown I have are test , so this one is n’t breathable enough for me . It also make me look even more like a teddy bear than I do naked . But if you demand to stay warm and listen to tune on the mountain , there are very few crownwork that do audio recording so well .
