Description
Wireless freedom on a detector only works if the beep arrives while your search coil is still over the target - and that is exactly what the Nokta BT Low Latency Headphones are built for. Standard Bluetooth audio lags behind the sweep. These run Qualcomm aptX Low Latency, which Nokta states delivers faster, better quality audio and more precise, faster target responses on your machine. One pair covers the whole modern Nokta lineup, from The Legend and Legend 2 to the full Score series, the Simplex ULTRA, and even the AccuPOINT pinpointer.
At a glance
The Nokta BT Low Latency Headphones are over-ear wireless metal detector headphones with Bluetooth 5.0 and Qualcomm aptX Low Latency. Nokta lists compatibility with The Legend 2, The Legend, Score, Double Score, Triple Score, Simplex ULTRA, and the AccuPOINT pinpointer. Rechargeable 1200 mAh battery, 10 m (33 ft) range, wired 3.5 mm (1/8 in) input, adjustable headband.
Why the BT Low Latency over its siblings
This is the one wireless headphone Nokta lists for its current Bluetooth generation of detectors. If you swing a Legend, Legend 2, any Score, or a Simplex ULTRA, this is your wireless match - the 2.4GHz Green Edition serves a different, older group of machines (Kruzer, Anfibio, Simplex+, Impact and others) and is not listed for the Legend or Score series. Most dealer listings still describe these as a Legend-only accessory; Nokta's own compatibility list is seven machines deep, and it includes the AccuPOINT pinpointer, so your pinpointer tones can land in the same ears as your detector tones. For hunts that end underwater, step to the Waterproof Headphones instead; for the open-ear option on the Legend 2, see the Bone Conduction Headphones.
Technical specs and what they do in the field
| Bluetooth 5.0 with Qualcomm aptX Low Latency | Target response stays synced to your sweep; Nokta states faster, more precise responses than standard Bluetooth |
| Over-ear cups, adjustable headband | Blocks wind and field noise so faint, deep tones stay audible |
| 20 Hz - 20 kHz, 32 ohm, 106 dB sensitivity | Full tone range for machines with rich audio profiles like the Legend and Score series |
| 10 m (33 ft) effective range | Set the detector down to dig; audio holds |
| 1200 mAh 3.7 V lithium polymer battery, USB charging | Solid red LED while charging, off when full; charges from any quality USB charger |

| MODE and volume buttons with microphone | Pairs with your phone too: calls, music, and voice assistant between targets |
Pairing is automatic: power on, the headphones broadcast as "NOKTA-MAKRO", switch on Bluetooth on the detector and they connect, then reconnect on their own every hunt after. These headphones are not waterproof; keep them out of the rain and off the dive list.
