A2DP Stereo Bluetooth Headphone review part 1

[ns86elvn]

Thanks. Really helpful..

[MrThumperDaRabbit]

do the altec lansing back beats work on the ipodtouch with out the adapter? 

[TariqTaylor]

What about the Sony Ericssion (OEM) HBH-IS800 Bluetooth Stereo Headset

[Barbossapasa]

Don't buy the Altec Lansings!! They are shit!! Won't even fit in the ear properly.

There are no good bluetooth headphones on the market atm, the best ones I had were the Sony DR-BT21G but there must be some sort of a shortage or something because few places sell them now, and the ones that do, sell them for A LOT of money, probably because of a lack of competion as companies don't feel the need to reduce the price as there isn't any1 selling them!!

[MILLIONDOLLARMINE]

THATS HOT !

[Karlos11188]

I know the jaybird sit very well if they fit your ears and most importantly wont move... but do the altecs? I need to be able to do everything at the gym without them moving at all... ie sit ups, skipping, push ups & chin ups... once they start to move im gonna start getting annoyed to shit and if that means the sound isnt just as good as the altecs then so be it but if the altecs dont move when i do all that stuff then ill take them over the jaybirds for sure.

[luigi6478]

on your iphone.. can't you skip track with Altec??

[dRuEFFECT]

@luigi6478 no you cant.. it's the iphone's design that doesn't allow it.. can't skip tracks with any bluetooth model..

[luigi6478]

@luigi6478 oh thanx.. umm what about the volume controls? the same issue?

[Kstith20]

can i have your s9hds

[njdenis1]

The s9-hd's are complete garbage

[argoscatalogue1]

why?

[idigcars]

I returned a total of 3 sets within 6 weeks..nothing but problems. Some days they wouldnt even power up. They had constant loss of signal...ive never had so many problems with any product in my life. They were recalled quickly at a lot of retailers

[dietpepsi01]

i think the sound quality is great on the hd's,

and they're very comfortable after the initial pinching. easy to pair too.

and i hate to agree, but they're garbage. i had 3 sets in one year, every 3 or four months the set would go bad. granted motorola warranty held and the 2 extra sets where free, with the exception of shipping.

motorola needs better hardware

[py6wo30]

Hi, My ear is small...what kind do you recommend?

[Northernkingdom]

Keep an eye on the Budsgoblue. These could possible be the best all around bluetooth headset for the gym freak and audiophile.

[fishmacblack]

what's with those? aren't they 3 months overdue by now?

[colinmc81]

@Northernkingdom Thanks for the heads up, just saw a video they look really cool, by the way they are Jaybirds.

[dougnys]

Hey there,

Has anyone had experience with the Motorola S7-HDs? I'm interested in how they compare to the Altec or the S9-HD?

Thanks :)

[LaneCh]

The night before I was going to get the Motorola S9 HD's, I came to the net to see if anyone reviewed them. I stumbled across your video and had no idea that the BackBeat 903s existed. I listened to your review then went to Fry's the next day and bought both. I ended up taking back the S9s. Thanks for doing this review. If it weren't for your review, I wouldn't have a great pair of A2DPs right now!

[fenlightle]

Since you're reviewing A2DP bluetooth headphone... have you ever tried using Sony Ericsson HBH-IS800 ?

[dRuEFFECT]

no i havent, but those look interesting... thats more ideal of a design.. if you wind up trying them please let me know what you think of them..

[Northernkingdom]

The Sony Ericsson HBH-IS800 is a POS. Sony never makes good bluetooth headphones. How does the Jaybird sound with the acoustibuds on it? Does it sound better than the altecs with the acoustibuds?

[dRuEFFECT]

nope. still crap.. the acoustibuds are too big for my small ears anyways

[TheMRamstaff]

why is that sony ericsson shit ? can u argument y wanna buy it so need arguments if u have a pair

[dRuEFFECT]

I ordered a pair of the IS800's recently... they have no volume controls so the a2dp sound output is at a fixed volume since you cant control a2dp volume from the iphone.. not too big a deal since the volume is at a good level for me (some complain its a bit loud, but i prefer that..) After a full charge I'm getting random disconnects from these.. Bought them on ebay so it might be a bad set that I got suckered into... otherwise theyre not so bad..

[RichieSambuca]

@Northernkingdom I disagree, I've got some Sony DR-BT22 bluetooth headphones - they're rugged, work great with my iPhone 4 (including all controls) and the sound and battery life are great. The only thing I hate about them are they're a bit plasticky and don't sit well on my shaven head (when I say shaven, I mean bald ;)

[arjunn7]

Are the Altec 903 completely sweat resistant ?

[ZoldierrZzz]

UUUHM!

[rdt1970]

hi all please can you advise i just got the Jaybird 200I headset and they are utter crap. BT dropouts, earbuds poor fit and general uncomfy hate them. So i go the gym and workout so i need a good set that are comfy cant decide Moto S9-HD or Altec Lansing 903 i have a n97. which will be best when bench pressing, running etc..thanks all

[dRuEFFECT]

get the altec lansings... especially if you'll be laying on a bench press since you wont be able to lay your head back with the s9-hd's... I use the altec lansing backbeats every day..

[rdt1970]

thanks ordered them tday

[rdt1970]

hi they finally arrived had to wait 2 dam wks from seller! but tried my AL 903s in the gym today and here is my findings compared to the Jaybird 200i. AL903s nice build thought the wire was going to be to small but fits perfectly. My god the sound on the lansing is fab. Also the fit is really good the JB200 made my ears stick out. And yep you can wear the ALs with specs. Charge very good and i love the controls to. I cant track fwd/rev with n97 using the 903 but not a show stopper so thanks

[surfs1man]

my sony bluetooth headphones i hate them they sound like crap dont work all the time, no true audiophile would use bluetooth headphones period. my $5.00 earbuds sound better then sony bluetooth headphones

[shk2006]

good info man. great review and comparision of these brands. I rate this awesome :)

[shnitzel12]

Is that an MX1000 mouse? :)

Just bought the Motorolas last night...won't pickup even in back pocket. Enjoying your review.

Great job showing the headphones on your head..heard about the Dumbo ears as well.

Great review..probably returning the s9s.

Do you return the losers or do you collect them? :)

[dRuEFFECT]

mx1000, yes... got it with my dinovo setup, too bad the logitech back/forward buttons dont work natively with my macbook =(

yes, i collect all the loser headphones and burn them in a bonfire.. lol, no i returned them of course!

[riceanony]

Where did you buy the Altec Lansing?

[chucktaylorfan92]

it'd be better to keep the camera on the headphones bc when youre trying to point it at yourself its really shaky...still, 5*

[GuidoAC]

Thanks a lot for this!
