I ended up getting this Anker Portable Speaker after some great reviews on Amazon. I've had a couple generic no names that broke or blew out quickly.
http://www.ianker.com/product/99ANSP9901-BSA
The MP141 is very nice looking and super easy to pair. The speaker is very heavy-indicating a large magnet, and has a nice matte rubber exterior. There is a micro USB charge port, aux stereo jack and a charge light indicater. Apart from thevolume switch, the buttons operate the speaker. Volume up/ down and a play/pause. All the parts appear to be of the highest quality. Most importantly, the sound is very rich. I use it in my office which is about 12 X 12. I can walk out about 15-20 without losing connection. What's more impressive is I can still hear it well out side. Unfortunately the unit does distort at the highest volume- but most speakers do. The company boasts 20hrs. I have used mine for over 25 and is still going!
The speaker also has a microphone to answer incoming calls. The mic. quality is good and almost none of callers could recognize I was using the speaker. There is also a sound that indicates a successful connection or incoming call. One drawback is that for some reason, this notification sound is always super loud-regardless of the volume seting on the speaker. It can be startling if you have the speaker volume low. Overall I am very pleased with this product and feel comfortable recommending it to anyone looking for a high quality speaker without the high end price.

I bought a Jawbone Big Jambox about 1 year ago. Absolutely LOVE it! Incredible sound, battery life, call quality on both ends, etc. There isn't a single thing I can say bad, or even slightly negative, about it. I highly recommend it to anyone who has $300 to spend on bluetooth speaker!

Did I mention this one is only $35?
I think it's a great product for the price. :sly:

+ 1!! Terrific speaker..
The JBL Flip is amazing.
The sol deck is my favorite by far. Made by sol republic with motorola. It has an audio in port and audio out port comes with aux cable. The look and feel of it is great, and sounds amazing. It actually has bass too. Also the connectivity is very long range

I'm using a regular Jambox (not mini, not BIG) and I really like it. Honestly the sound is great for it's size and the battery is superb. Paid 85.00 for it on eBay.
There are now a LOT of players in the bluetooth speaker market.
If I were buying now I would make sure I got one with bluetooth 3.0 or higher, Apt-X, and ideally NFC also. Some degree of protection from the elements is included with an increasing number of these too, well worthwhile if you can get it with the other features and within your budget.
Braven have some very nice ones, I have the 850 which has Apt-X, BT 3.0, 20 hour battery life (or less if you want to use it to charge devices, it has a 8,800mA battery inside that charges at 2A), stellar build quality, very good sound. They also have a smaller form factor one, the 710 that adds the NFC and splash/dust resistance.
I also have the Loewe Speaker 2Go, which is the best I have ever heard and has BT 3.0 and Apt-X and NFC and an 8 hour battery (again one that can be used to charge other devices, although that is less practical than with the 850 as the battery capacity is much smaller).
there's two which i've purchased. the first is the tdk life on record:
http://www.amazon.com/TDK-Life-Record-Wireless-Weatherproof/dp/B008VMT2HQ
this speaker gets LOUD and doesn't distort in the higher volumes. for the price, it's a VERY GOOD speaker. it's weatherproof so if you're active and need something that can be taken to the beach or beside the pool, this is the speaker for you.
it has an audio in port for non bluetooth devices, a usb port for charging your phone / mp3 player, and is usable as a speaker phone. even though it's small in size, the speaker has some weight... which is generally a sign of good materials used and good construction.
i would've kept that speaker if i never heard my current speaker. the sony srs-btx500:
http://www.amazon.com/Sony-SRSBTX500-Portable-Bluetooth-Wireless/dp/B00B2G3R5G
i don't need my speaker to be outside, it's just indoors. as far as sound... this has enough bass to make it enjoyable, without it being overpowered. with some speakers it's just ALL bass. you get no lows, mids, or highs. you can hear everything on the sony. there's different audio modes (normal, bass boost, and bass boost w / surround). depending on what i'm listening to, i switch the sound mode.
the speaker has nfc, it's bluetooth compatible (of course), has an audio in port for non bluetooth devices, has speaker phone capabilities, and also a usb port for charging your phone / mp3 player.
the one thing i LOVE about the speaker is the surround sound. no matter where i place it, i hear equal sound in both ears. normally when you place the speaker on the left hand side, you can tell that's where the speaker is. with the sony, i can place it on the left or right hand side of my desk (where i keep it) and the sound is equal. really amazing.

Yeah im in the military and on any military installation you are required to use hands free. I use a Motorola T505 for in car, it has a pretty loud speaker and can be played through your radio. I use a BlueAnt Z9 for in ear bluetooth. They are both pretty damn good and can be found on Newegg dot com.
Good post
I use the Jawbone its good !!
looking for good excuse to buy new one one plus is the noise cancellation option works
i have first version one new ones thiner
http://www.jawbone.com/
thanks for the replies. both are very good. the jawbone looks nice but how does it function? i'm trying to compromise looks and functionality as much as i can
noise-canceling technology is great
here a good place for some reviews of different ones
it hot don't want to type 104* off to pool
i use the big clunker
http://www.welectronics.com/Bluetooth/motorola_ht820.jpg
but i love it.. when im on the bus i hear no sound when i have the volume up at a good level.. if i want ot hear i lower it and can hear almost everything and my music
there big there ugly
i use them for 45 minutes to a hour a day and charge then every 3 weeks..
but thye are kick a$$
I use Tritton TRI-BH102 it has been pretty good to me. Battery life is 4hours+ constant stream range is limited to 10' anything more than that is most likely to disconnect. The thing I like about it is the 3.5mm jack.
I use the Jabra BT250v for talking. It's not the one in the link, but it looks just like it. It's the loudest and clearest one I've found in the store. It's very comfortable despite the way it looks. I've forgotten that I was wearing it quite a few times. It has an earpiece that goes into your ear and it sounds like the caller is standing next to you. I talk for about 3 hours a day, and I charge it once a week. It was $50 at Best Buy. I liked the SE HBH-610 more, but I don't think they make them anymore. I've heard really good things about all the Plantronics, but they were too expensive for me.
I use the SouthWing SA505 for stereo music. It's loud, music sounds good, and the battery last for months. I use it in the gym for 2 hours a day, 6 days a week, and to talk when I forget to charge my Jabra. I charge it about once every other month, but it's never actually died on me so it could probably go longer. And it was only $23 with shipping on eBay!
I have one by caselogic, a CLST-100
It cost $16 on double clearance, and it works about as much as it costs.
But the fact of the matter is that it works
I'm using both Jawbones (new and original) I find the new one to be more comfortable
man some dope head phones here, made it even harder for me to choose lol .. i was going to stick with a simple motorola but dam hahaha i have more options now
thanks guys keep em coming!
Out of the few BT headsets I have I find I really only use my JVC HAW700BT set anymore. It's got a stereo jack so I can use whatever headphones I like and when not on the phone I can move the main body of it to my belt. This one can also connect to your car stereo if it's got an Aux input and you can use it as a hands-free set. The battery life is excellent... at least for me.
The only "con" for me is that the charger's connection at the bottom of the main body isn't miniUSB, just some plain two pin connector. Gonna make my own adapter for it so I can charge on the go.
http://www.gadgetell.com/tech/comment/jvc-intros-new-bluetooth-transmitter-and-headset/
I haven't looked to see if it's more common now. When I got mine i had a very hard time finding anyone who even had it in their computer, much less in stock, and it wasn't on JVC's site either.
I use the jabra bt8010 stereo headset. I'm simply in love with this thing. the sound quality is outstanding. I find myself using my wing for music more than my ipod because of the headset. If your wearing both pieces phone calls sound as if you are in the same room with the person. check ebay they used to go for between 90.00 and 110.00$$ but now you can find them for as low as $40.00. Now if I could only figure out how to setup my voice command to be used on te headset?
I use a Motorola. Excellent sound quality, And compatible with A2DP ( Music via Bluetooth thing ).

i was looking into this one because of the simplicity of it. right now it seems like the best bang for the buck.
I use the Motorola H700 with no problems
Motorola H700 for me to very good, talking on phone is good, music sounds good ... MSVC sucks big time, i got mine off ebay for 22 bucks
I have the cheapest Jabra I could find in the shop, 10 UK pounds.
It's rubbish. I bought it just to try how bt headsets work.
Interestingly (although maybe I'm the last one to find out), using the attached cab I can send all sound through it whether it likes it or not (it would only work when there's a call otherwise).
What is the model number for Motorola BT head set
Hey guys, been digging through the threads and found a couple on earphones, though not exactly what I was looking. Looking for your opinions on best earphones with a microphone for about $35-$65. Comfortable, preferably in ear design. Hoping for a pretty good microphone so that people can actually hear me, especially outside, though I don't want the mic to be huge (that's one thing I liked about the stock headphones till they broke; the mic was discrete). Also, I would prefer one of the earphones to be longer than the other so that I could have them hang around my neck when not in use. All opinions welcome.
So far I've looked at:
Sennheiser MM50
MetroFi 170vi
-Thanks
Hi,
You can try
remote control with HTC ExtUSB
which has: mic+vol up/down+fward/bward
and 3.5 connector
and get an CX 95 style
I order this combination and they are on the way.

Does this headset works the same way as the htc headset that was supplied with the phone?
thanks for the picture. Too bad it's not an around the neck design. And yes, I believe all the headsets will work like the original one. Though I should note that none of the headsets will give you extra functionality like changing songs/volume, but you can still pick up/hang up calls.
I brought a nokia headset hs47 and that does not work well with HD

I was just about to buy those last night but then I saw that there were alot of fakes floating around and didn't want to get ripped off. Also, I found reviews for the "nuforce ne-7m" and they're all extremely positive. Everyone saying that they're better than the MM50, though, unfortunately, they're not around the neck design. I still ended buying them, if I don't like them I'll just return it and get the MM50s.

Got them on tues (very fast shipping as monday was a holiday). First of all, I'm no audiophile but here's my best 'imho.' Compared to the stock headphones, well, you really can't compare them. It's like listening to music in 3D; there's depth to the sound. The mic is in a good position and tiny. So far, everyone has said that they've had no problem hearing me and I've never heard the wind blowing in my earphones (which use to happen all the time on the stock ones). They block out sound very well and don't disrupt others since you can't hear the music unless u have them on/are really really close. If you turn up the volume (on the HD) all the way up, it gets ridiculously loud, but remains high quality. The cable is nice and long (sometimes that's an issue for me since I'm like 6feet 4in (1.93m). Extremely comfortable!
Cons(?): Not around the neck design. 'Bent' (L shaped) jack vs the stock straight jack. The sound carries through the wire into the headphones when they hit/touch something (like a zipper on a sweatshirt); however I think this might be true on all in-ear headphones? If anyone can comment on that, especially on the MM50 in that scenario.
3 other notes: It has one of those sliders were the line separates into the right/left headphone to help keep them from tangling. Came with a pouch and 3 other sized ear pieces. It has a 'clip' to clip the headphones to a piece of clothing so that they don't bounce around.
If you have any other questions or I missed something let me know and I'll try and get it answered for you.

Good review IMO. Sounds similar to MM50, though lacking around the neck design would put me off them.

All others should probably check out this thread:

They also have a black version. These earphones are pretty cheap ( I bought them for 20 euros, they sound good , nice deep tones and bass)
Ouch, Sennheiser. They make great headsets but for me those bass-tones is way too much. Personally I use d-Jays. Crisp yet powered sound. I love them. Edit: Forgot price. Lol. In Sweden I can get them for about $100 and that's pretty nice. But yeah, it's way more than €20.
Looking to get a set of BH-905's when I get a free bit of cash!
Seemingly I cant post a link to them as thats not permitted for newbies
Just to help you out, here's a pic of them.
Are you guys able to speak into the phone's Mic when using your own earphones during a call? Mine can't and I have to plug them out when a phone comes in.
Im thinking about getting the CX500 earphones... got a price of £29.99... which seems to be good...
I want to have bassy sound but want my mids and trebles...
I am currently using boss earphones...
CX500's sound good. I can't remember what mine are, but they are Sennheisers that have exactly the same buds as the Sennheisers Sony Ericsson use on their HBH-DS970 bluetooth headphones.
For arguements sake, the DS970's go louder than when using the headphone socket on the X10, but the headphone socket sounds nicer.
Been doing some comparisons Nexus vs X10 vs iPod Touch 3G with the same headphones.
Nexus goes louder than X10, quality doesn't sound as good, but it's rooted with Cyanogen which makes the volume louder.
Touch goes a lot louder than both devices, enough to hurt my ears, but does so with high quality. I can't decide whether or not the quality is better than the X10, it's very close.
My headphone tastes are bias towards bass, but I do like the mids and treble to remain...just like to have a thump also!

Is it a european or american touch?
The european union puts a volume restriction on the iPods sold in europe, therefore an american (or asian or whatever) iPod Touch would be louder than a european one.
(just thought that might be a factor in the volume department)
Not all european iPod's are subject to such measures IIRC. I know france is, and it is something I checked before purchase, as a 85dB limit would have been no good!

I can't wait to get mine. I sent in the Rogers promo claim form on Monday, so it'll be a few weeks at least.
I'm using the included X10 headphones right now, which are decent. I'm surprised that for earbuds that don't go into the ear canal, they actually stay in my ears pretty well (most such earbuds I've tried don't).
I did take a quick look at the local shopping center today while I way there for some buds that wrap over the ear, as I find them more comfortable and they stay in my ear better. However, I couldn't find any headphones of any style that had short cords like the ones included in the X10. Since the X10 has the mic dongle (which I use) I don't want to have an extra few feet of cable hanging around.
Anyone found any decent headphones that are on a short cable like those included with the X10?
I am using MW600 too.
I find the volume control is not that sensitive.
I have to swipe a couple of time before I can get it working.
Is it normal?
Hi, I thought it would be cool to see what kinds of headphone setups we're using. Here's mine:

I love them- for under 60$, they are the best phones I've found...I've been through a few different sets, and have returned them all, until these.
And I run them through the Fiio E5 amplifier.
http://www.amazon.com/FiiO-E5-Headphone-Amplifier/dp/B001P9EQH8
This little thing is awesome. If you don't use one of these, get one! I can't believe the difference it makes in my listening enjoyment. On headphones, or through a 3.5mm to my car stereo, this thing gives a richer sound, more bass- (lots, if you turn boost on) and a lot more volume. I used to have to turn my car stereo up pretty loud to get the volume I wanted out of my portable sources, and it would mean that I'd have to deal with some degree of electronic hiss- That's gone. Also, sometimes I like to listen to music at ridiculous, ear damaging volume- and I would turn the volume all the way up on my Ipod or tablet, and it would be loud, but not really loud... Now, with the amp-I can turn it up till it hurts... and I'm afraid to go louder... It's awesome.
I bought a 3.5mm Monster cable with these , and I gotta say I LOVE the sound now..
What do you guys use?
Koss
I use Koss Porta Pro. I love wearing these headphones. Excellent sound and cheap.
I use Koss Pro DJ100's, which I bought at Best Buy a few months ago when it was on sale for $45-50. I love them. The sound is very detailed, with good depth, bass and soundstage. You really have to run them through an amp, though, otherwise they don't sound as good. I run them through a Fiio E7.
I also use Monster Turbines for earphones when I dont' want to carry my full sized cans around.
For portability I use the Sansa Clip+ with Etymotic ER4Ps. At home I use ER4S or AKG K702 with my HeadAmp Pico DAC/amp.

I have a now ancient Plantronics Pulsar 590E Bluetooth stereo headset that works well. There is a slightly noticeable audio lag when watching movies, but it's not enough to be a problem for me. Amazingly, this last week, I was able to get factory replacement ear pads when mine disintegrated from age.

Now that I've seen what a difference an amp makes, I can really see myself upgrading to this one- do you love it, or is it better to go straight to the REALLY expensive units?

Damn, That's a nice piece- SO pricey though- I bet it's amazing!
At home, I use ( Senn hd595s || Beyer DT770 250ohm )->GoVibe v4->XFI on my desktop; at work I use a pair of MX880s into whatevers handy (laptop; Sansa Fuse, Nexus One, or my tablet)

That amp he mentioned is decent for IEMs but if you want to properly power over the ear headphones you may want something a little bit better.
I went with the Pico brand because I couldn't find anything else that could have that much power AND output a flat frequency response.

I use Teufel Aureol Massive headphones on my Transformer for Rock and Metal
I plan to use both my MEElec M6 and Nu-Force 700x IEMs. Here's a pretty in-depth read/review of 170+ IEMs:
Multi-IEM Review - 172 IEMs compared (Xears XR120PRO II & Kozee E100 added 06/01)
This is what I used to choose my new pair of earphones. Get something to drink.. relax on the couch with your TF and enjoy the read.
I use my Diddy Beats, Solo Beats by Dre, S10HD, and another BT Motorola set. They are great

i use a pair of recabled sennheiser ie8's. They are perfect for a device like this.

I had a pair of those, they were nice.
Lots of serious eadphones around here!
I nearly spent the cash for the Klipsch image one phones today... my kicker cans have good bass, but aren't overly "punchy"... i listened to the KI1`s, and I liked th bass response but I wonder if the punch would become overbearing on certain music styles without constant e.q. tweaking...
What do you guys think are the best over/on ear phones for 150 or less?
Koss Porta Pro. They seem to be very popular.
Hey, here is a quick review for the Kmashi Arma K1 Bluetooth Speaker (with a twist). I just had the chance to try this speaker out and I must say I'm pleasantly surprised with it. Bluetooth speakers are so awesome because of the ease of use, and also because they kind of broke the Apple monopoly on speakers of the phone. Before you could only use the Apple Docks which never worked with any Android phone and it also had so many other problems, like broken ports etc. I'd say this speaker in particular is perfect for camping trips, beach bonfires, and also Jamming out on your bike. My favorite part is the insane battery life of 35hours because the standard now a days is about 10 hours or less. Heres what I like about them:
Pro:
-Pretty good sound even when its loud
-Insanely long battery life (probably due to the speakers feeding off the 4800Mah battery which is used for the battery pack portion of this device)
-USB battery pack charger
-Water/ Sand/Dust proof. Also shockproof
-Good Wireless Range
-Grippy rubber exterior
-Flashlight. It's quite bright
-Can play straight from MicroSD cards. Great for when you don't want to deal with bluetooth pairing etc
-Comes with bike mounting kit
Cons:
-When the device is turned on it speakers, "Connection" which I found cheesy. It also says "Dis-connection" when bluetooth drops off. I think a beep would have sufficed
-No AUX in port
The fact that it is a 3 in 1 allows me to pack lighter because the flashlight is actually bright enough and the battery pack packs quite a bit of energy. It's cool that it allows me to keep my phone plugged/charging while I am playing audio from it. Kmashi sent me this speaker to provide an evaluation for them, and I would say I am very please with it. It sells on Amazon for $37 normally, but its on promotion for $22 ($15 off) if you use this coupon code : IFUJLMOX with the seller eCase. At that price I'd say its a steal.
