Our Verdict
Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Bone Conduction
SoundPeats PearlClip Pro
The Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Bone Conduction and the SoundPeats PearlClip Pro take different routes to accomplish similar goals. They're both designed to sit outside your ear canal, leaving it unsealed so that you can better hear your environment. The SoundPeats use fairly standard dynamic drivers that are aimed at your inner ear, while the Shokz add in bone conduction drivers to try and better reproduce the whole frequency range. Unfortunately, our testing rig can't quite capture the effects of bone conduction. But you'll probably make your choice between these two based on budget. The more expensive Shokz have a flatter mid-range that doesn't add harsh resonances to vocals, while the cheaper SoundPeats do the job well enough given their affordable price point, but do make voices sound a bit harsh and nasally.
