JBL Endurance Race TWS Review: Durable sports earphones with ... (Firstpost)

These wireless earphones from JBL may not produce the most detailed sound in the segment but serve their purpose well.

The charging case managed to charge them fully twice more, taking the overall battery backup of close to 27 hours for the buds and case combined, which is excellent. For that price, you get a pair of rugged TWS earphones with IP67 ingress protection, a lively sound output that can be tweaked further from the companion app, transparency modes and of course, impressive battery backup. The call quality on the JBL Endurance Race is average. The battery backup of the JBL Endurance Race is quite impressive. With the loudness close to 75% during the test process, the earbuds managed to go on for close to 9 hours before one of the earbuds ran out of juice, while the other still had 20% left. The wireless range is pretty standard with the buds retaining a strong connection up to 10 metres with a clear line of sight. Boosting certain midrange and high-end frequencies in the equaliser does bring a better balance to the overall sound without compromising on the bass. Thankfully, the companion app offers you a 10-band equaliser to tweak the sound to your liking. Yes, it is bass heavy, but given that one is expected to mainly use these earphones during a workout or a jog, the extra punch is not a bad thing. You get access to various settings of the buds after you install the JBL Headphones app and sync the earphones with it. The earbuds have touch enabled zones at the back, and the touch sensitivity isn’t the best I have come across. The charging case is also on the bulkier side and weighs close to 45 grams.

The National Archives helps reveal the great myth of American sports (The Washington Post)

A new exhibit, culled from U.S. government storerooms, helps expose the mythology of sports as the pillars of a pluralistic democracy.

“It was a means for these people to try to maintain a sense of cultural identity while attempts were being made to strip them of their dignity and, in some cases, entire way of life.” “There were these situations where sports was used to try to control the behavior of certain groups, or to cultivate certain traits,” explained Kamps. In some, he demanded his pay from a contract he signed that, like so many treaties indigenous people signed with the federal government, was not being met. It came mostly from the storerooms of the government. Many thought he suffered the indignity because he was Indian. For example, on display at “All American: The Power of Sports” is a photo of an all-Black Army football team from 1926. Like, there’s a poster in the exhibit that says, ‘This is America.’” The Secretary of War. And another poster of a Pvt. The exhibit’s curator, Alice Kamps, admitted to not being some rabid sports fan.

To interview him and then work with him was one of the highlights of my career. But I love the fact that my time in the studio allowed me to sit next to someone like the great Sir Bobby Robson or people like Ian Rush and Bryan Robson, guys I grew up idolising as footballers. That’s the essence of great live television, when the audience has not only watched something, but also heard it contextualised, summed up and delivered to them comprehensively. A lot of people that do the role that I do tend to be overtly opinionated, even biased, these days. As a journalist, I always prepare to the best of my ability, but there’s still that fear at the back of my head of having a gap in knowledge at a crucial time when covering a sport that I haven’t grown up watching the ins and outs of. The thing about the Champions League is that it’s invariably the squads with the most depth that go the deepest. Sony had to get everything ready very quickly and they did a great job of it. I had spoken to Steve McManaman a day before the game, and it was special to see him score in the final (for Real). To suddenly find myself in my home country for the entire duration of the World Cup working alongside legends like Sunil Gavaskar, Geoffrey Boycott and Tony Greig was mind-blowing. Across media, shows and networks, Dykes has been a mainstay in sports broadcasting for the best part of this century. I’d say the first UEFA Champions League final that I covered on site, when Real Madrid beat Valencia in Paris (in 2000). For a generation of sports lovers, the answer is simple: John Dykes.
