Nokta - Underwater Bone Conduction Headphones

The Nokta - Bone Conduction Headphones – are purpose-built for underwater metal detecting with the Nokta - The Legend 2.

Unlike conventional headphones that use speakers positioned over or inside your ears, these headphones use bone-conduction technology to transmit detector audio through vibrations against the bones of the head. This makes them especially useful when detecting underwater, where traditional headphone audio can become more difficult to hear.

Combined with the Nokta The Legend 2's fully submersible 5 m / 16 ft design, the Bone Conduction Headphones provide a dedicated audio solution for detectorists searching beaches, rivers, lakes, swimming holes, surf, and completely submerged environments.

Built for Underwater Metal Detecting

The biggest reason to choose Nokta's Bone Conduction Headphones is underwater use.

They are designed to complement the underwater capabilities of The Legend 2 and provide detector audio when you're hunting beneath the surface.

They're an excellent choice for:

• Underwater metal detecting

• Snorkeling

• Swimming-hole detecting

• River and creek hunting

• Lake detecting

• Beach detecting

• Surf hunting

• Shallow-water hunting

• Freshwater detecting

• Saltwater detecting

• Underwater jewelry recovery

• Submerged relic hunting

For Legend 2 owners who plan to take their detector underwater, the Bone Conduction Headphones are one of the most important accessories to add to the system.

Bone-Conduction Technology

Traditional headphones create sound through speakers that transmit audio through the ear canal.

Bone-conduction headphones work differently.

Instead of covering or plugging your ears, the headphones transmit vibrations through the bones of the head toward the inner ear.

This makes bone conduction particularly useful for underwater metal detecting, where water naturally fills the ear canal and can affect conventional headphone audio.

The open-ear design also allows you to maintain greater awareness of your surroundings when detecting above water.

Designed for The Legend 2

The Nokta Bone Conduction Headphones were introduced as part of the new accessory ecosystem for The Legend 2.

The Legend 2 includes a dedicated Bone Conduction Headphones audio-output option in its operating system.

When the Bone Conduction Headphones option is selected, detector audio is routed through the connected bone-conduction headphones.

Official Product Compatibility

Nokta currently officially lists Part #17000576 as compatible with:

• Nokta The Legend 2

Important Compatibility Note

These headphones should not be assumed to work with every waterproof Nokta detector.

Nokta's official product listing currently specifies The Legend 2 as the compatible model.

The original Legend, Score series, Simplex Ultra, AccuPOINT, and other Nokta products use different headphone/audio configurations and are not currently listed by Nokta as compatible with Part #17000576.

The Legend 2 Underwater System

The Nokta The Legend 2 is fully submersible to:

5 meters / 16 feet

The detector is designed for use in:

• Freshwater

• Saltwater

• Beaches

• Rivers

• Lakes

• Surf

• Shallow water

• Underwater environments

Nokta specifically lists the Underwater Bone Conduction Headphones as a recommended accessory for The Legend 2.

Together, they provide a purpose-built setup for detectorists who want to take their Legend 2 beyond the shoreline and actually hunt beneath the surface.

Dedicated Bonephone Audio Mode

The Legend 2 provides multiple audio-output options, including:

• Built-in speaker

• Bluetooth headphones

• Bone Conduction Headphones

• Wired headphones

• Multiple audio output

When the Bone Conduction Headphones icon is selected in the Legend 2's audio settings, detector audio is routed through the connected bonephones.

This dedicated audio setting helps distinguish the Legend 2 from previous Nokta detector platforms.

No Bluetooth Required Underwater

Bluetooth works extremely well for land detecting, but Bluetooth radio signals do not transmit effectively through water.

That's why conventional Bluetooth headphones are not the ideal solution when the detector's control unit and headphones are submerged.

The Nokta Bone Conduction Headphones provide a dedicated physical audio solution for underwater Legend 2 operation.

This allows you to continue receiving detector audio when hunting below the surface without depending on a Bluetooth connection.

Excellent for Beach & Surf Hunting

You don't have to be snorkeling to benefit from underwater headphones.

They're also an excellent choice for surf hunters.

When you're working in breaking waves, conventional non-waterproof Bluetooth headphones can become a liability.

With a dedicated underwater headphone system, you can move between:

Dry Sand → Wet Sand → Shallow Water → Surf → Underwater

without needing to switch to a different audio setup.

Excellent for Swimming Holes

Swimming areas are some of the most productive locations for underwater jewelry hunting.

Rings, chains, bracelets, earrings, watches, coins, and other items can be lost while people are:

• Swimming

• Diving

• Playing in the water

• Entering and exiting boats

• Jumping from docks

• Using beaches and swimming areas

Combining The Legend 2 with Nokta's Bone Conduction Headphones gives detectorists a purpose-built setup for searching these submerged areas.

Open-Ear Design

Bone-conduction technology doesn't require conventional speakers to cover your ears.

This open-ear design can help you maintain awareness of your surroundings when you're detecting above water or in shallow water.

That can be useful around:

• Boats

• Other swimmers

• Waves

• Other detectorists

• Wildlife

• Busy beaches

• Rivers and waterways

Freshwater & Saltwater Hunting

The Legend 2 is designed for both freshwater and saltwater environments, making the Bone Conduction Headphones particularly useful for detectorists who regularly search different types of water.

Potential applications include:

• Ocean beaches

• Saltwater surf

• Freshwater beaches

• Lakes

• Rivers

• Creeks

• Swimming holes

• Resort beaches

• Boat launches

• Docks

• Recreational swimming areas
