The Opera S2 and S5 wireless headphones are certainly unique in that they don’t actually use bluetooth, but rather a modern technology known as Clear, created especially for streaming music wirelessly. What this means is that you will need an adapter to be able to connect to the drive, which may or may not be appropriate for your situation. Today we will take you through step-by-step installation instructions on how to install your headset.
Both versions are almost the same and have a range of 32 feet plus ten hours of playback. However, the S5 model type provides an iPod-compatible transmitter plus some control keys directly on the headphones, while the S2 opts for a basic 3.5mm-based transmitter to accommodate your non-Apple accessories.
The S2 and S5 headphones are conveniently recharged using the supplied USB cable. The S2 adapter is additionally charged via USB. A double-ended cable is included to allow charging of the headset and adapter at the same time. The electronic Opera S2 and S5 benefit from the Clear wireless system. Unlike Bluetooth, Clear was made especially for music, providing CD-quality audio, very low power (thus longer play time), and minimal interference.
To power on your S2, simply press and hold down the push button on the top of the earpiece as well as the bottom of the adapter. Release the push button once the respective LEDs for each start flashing. After a while, they will blink in unison.
The S2 comes with a 3.5mm stereo audio jack that can be used with a number of different things including audio players, computer systems, televisions, and stereo systems to name just a few. Simply plug the adapter into the headphone output of the unit you want to tune and you’re ready to go. Using the S5, simply turn on the headphones, plug in the adapter, and when the two units flash together in symphony, you’re good to go.
Whether you’re at the gym or at work, Opera S2 and S5 give you the versatility and security to ensure your iPod device is in a safe place while you adjust the volume level and tunes through the headphones. No longer will your headphones be pulled out of your ears on a crowded bus or train. Outside of a gym, safely tune in to your own favorite tunes when using your weights and exercise equipment. The uses are countless.
The S2 and S5 come with volume level controls around the earpiece and the S5s also have a track control around the earpiece. To use, simply place them over the back of your neck, then place the earphones securely and comfortably in your own ears. Now you are ready to go.
