Key Features

The essence of sound and style

From its custom machined stainless steel in-ear sound tunnels for the signature MOMENTUM sound to its luxurious leather carrying case. A delight to see, hear and feel. Liberate and enhance your listening experience!

Smooth passage for outstanding sound
A premium product in every detail the MOMENTUM Free features custom machined stainless steel in-ear sound tunnels that channel the sound from its high-quality dynamic speaker system losslessly into the ear. Resulting in superior acoustic precision and that satisfying signature MOMENTUM sound: powerful bass response, detailed vocal projection and a great sound stage. Enjoy your music to the full.

Latest wireless technology for enhanced gaming and sound
You may wonder where we put it, but it is all there: Bluetooth 4.2, AAC codec support and Qualcomm® apt-X™ support. Together they ensure crystal clear wireless transmission in true hi-fi sound. Also, apt-X™ Low Latency lets you enjoy your videos more, by keeping audio perfectly in sync with the visuals.

Communication is all around your neck
The MOMENTUM Free offers all the amenities you would expect from a premium headset. It communicates seamlessly with your mobile device thanks to a three-button remote and high-quality in-line microphone between the earpieces. So, you can make phone calls and control music on the go with ease. For ultimate convenience, multi-connection with up to 2 devices at once and 3-way calling support are also provided. An intuitive system of voice prompts notifies you about the pairing or battery status.

You’re welcome to listen longer
Once you listen to the MOMENTUM Free you are not inclined to stop any time soon. Not least because of the supreme comfort the included ear adapters – in four different sizes – provide. Ensuring a snug and secure fit they also block ambient noise quite effectively. Accordingly, the battery lasts for six long hours of listening pleasure. It can be charged via the supplied USB cable.

Street-smart stylishness
Built with uncompromised craftsmanship from premium materials including stainless steel and featuring chrome accents the MOMENTUM Free is both sturdy and stylish. Well-conceived down to the detail its earpieces are magnetic so you can elegantly join them together and wear them comfortably around your neck when they are not in use. Of course, you can also put the MOMENTUM Free in the premium leather carrying case it comes with.

  "Latest wireless technology for enhanced gaming and sound"

  These are great headphones, but bluetooth 4.2 is not later than bluetooth 5.

    To be fair though, there is nothing in bluetooth 5 that would actually contribute to "enhanced gaming and sound" really. (The biggest changes are low power mode, higher data throughout and range, none of which really matter to gaming or sound quality)

    It DOES have the latest technology for gaming: AptX-LL. But what you SHOULD have pulled it up for is the lack of high def codec support (AptX-HD, LDAC, LHDC). I would say those are the latest wireless technology for sound (quality).

    So yeah, you are right to pull it up for that statement, but you pulled it up for the wrong thing! :)

      This was released late 2017, so at the time it was the latest, BT5 headsets didn't come into the market till this year. They unfortunately don't reprint boxes to repackage all the stock.

        caprimulgus on 20/09/2019 - 22:00

        Yeah that too! :)

        (FWIW, both AptX-HD and LDAC were released before 2017, so what I said is accurate!) :)

  At this price point should really be getting IEMs.

    Luckily, these are IEMs! ;)

      my bad, just don't like how the cable can't be separated from the about ear piece. always had the cables breaking and having to chuck away a good pair of earphones.

        caprimulgus on 20/09/2019 - 22:23

        Yeah, in that case you want an IEM with detachable cables.

        Sennheiser actually just released a new neckband style bluetooth IEM with detachable cable (IE80s BT), but it’s pretty pricey!

        Otherwise there are heaps of regular detachable IEMs which you can buy Bluetooth cables for! (Even cheap “chi-fi” options can be Bluetooth-ified)

          @caprimulgus: Yep, defs wouldn't mind this model if there was detachable cables and I'll just put on my own bluetooth cable.

        Wait, so now you don't like IEMs anymore? Unlike high-end full-size headphones, even expensive IEMs typically use a fixed cable.

          POSITIVEVIBESONLY on 20/09/2019 - 22:32

          @elektron: haha, I still do. just really like how I don't have to throw away something that works perfectly fine when a flimsy cable breaks.

                  @elektron: There's a variety of companies that sell the standalone bluetooth cables like elecom LBT-HPC1000RC. So you can hold onto your fav earphones and get any cable you want, wireless or non-wireless. It was a game changer for me, hope you try it out.

                    @POSITIVEVIBESONLY: Thanks for the advice - will keep it in mind. I haven't had your bad luck though, and I've used a lot of mid-range and high-end (over the ear, around the neck, and true wireless) bluetooth headphones over the years. In most cases I've upgraded as the technology improved and sometimes just for the heck of it, before they stopped working.
