I think the Aliph Jawbone is the best by far. Noise cancellation technology that originated in Department of Defense Advanced Research Projects. I have conversations while I'm driving and the other party has no idea that I'm on a cell phone.
Jawbone has received topnotch ratings in every review I've seen.
I absolutely love the motorola s9!
Jabra bt8010 is very good, but volume is low like others
I also recommend the BT8010 -- but wait until the weekend, as Fry's has had half-price weekend deals on the headset a couple times over the last month or so.
If you have Money and you like Cristal Clear Sound ... buy Sony DR-BT50. Its the only Bluetooth Headset with a Semi Profisional DA Converter. It works with 24bit and you hear the different!!!! 17 hours runtime is the next point.

Concur...This is what I use and it works great!
I have the jabra BT620S stereo bluetooth headset...just got it and paired it up this morning...seems to work great, volume can get decent but not as loud as my wired sennheiser, hopefully i can find a bluetooth hack to boost it somehow
I use the S9 and they work great for me. I have a friend that can't stand them, I think it is pretty hit or miss on how they fit your head. Some people love em but I htink if you have average size head you are fine, too big or too small and they don't fit very comfortable.
The battery life on them is fine, I use em a few hours a day and I plug it in once a week with no problems.
The sounds quality is good and volume is ok but not as loud as wired.
the jawbone, is it stero? the one I glanced at only was bluetooth headpeice not a headset. did I find the wrong one?
Thanks for the input so far guys... But I'm looking for more of call volume and being able to hear nice and loud.. I need this more for work and really am not using it for music... I too heard the Jawbone was suppose to be good but the Tilt is bluetooth2.0 and the jawbone only supports 1.2 or something like that.
for some weeks i use this
http://www.accessoryjack.com/servlet/the-570/i.Tech-Clip-Radio-Bluetooth/Detail
and i am very very happy
excellent quality in music listening
good fm receiver
more than 9 hours battery and bl handsfree in one pack
S9 Is great, just bought a Jawbone...charging now
Love my Jawbone.
I have had very bad luck with the Jawbone. They seem quite delicate. I had one fail and a friend also had his fail. In addition, they are terrible in the wind. The other party cannot hear you at all if there is any wind, so use outside is limited at best. If you will only be using it inside, then the Jawbone is OK.
I recently got a BlueAnt Z9. It also has good noise cancellation technology, seems more robust, gets plenty loud even with tht Tilt and does not have big wind problems. Also, BlueAnt is continuing to refine the firmware and provides free update.

I use Plantronics Discovery 665 and it is great. AudioQuality is absolutely amazing. the best I've had so far. For stereo I use Plantronics 590E witch is also very good, but gives a little to much bass i think. That can be fixed by using PocketPlayer 3.51 witch by the way is the best musicplayer I've ever used on a pocketPC.
Just my two cents anyway
Moby
Yes I'm just using this inside with no wind.. I need one with the volume loud enough.. I just got the Jabra bt 8040 and the volume is so low... I will be returning this.. So the jawbone works...? I heard that the jawbone is only bluetooth 1.2 or somehting like that and the Tilt supports bluetooth 2.0.. I just hate having to try out a bunch of different headsets and returning them for another... I use it quite a bit for work, so need one with LOUD volume
BlueAnt Z9
I have a few headset's that I've tried with the Kaiser (running XDA V1.2 w/volume patches). I know I have more in boxes, but these are the ones I could find.
I purchased a BlueAnt Z9 because it runs BT V2.0 and it fits my ear better than the Nokia BH-900. IMHO the Z9 is clearly the better headset for volume on the Kaiser It's a bit tinny to listen to, but I can get the volume very loud with this headset.
I have tried the following 5 headsets:
Nokia BH-900, Wireless - Bluetooth 2.0 EDR, good volume and no cutouts
JawBone, Wireless - Bluetooth 1.2, low volume and background hiss
Motorola HS850, wireless - Bluetooth 1.2, low volume w/hiss
BlueAnt Z9, Wireless - Bluetooth 2.0, good volume, no cutouts
Sony HBH-300, Wireless - Bluetooth 1.1, low volume
My limited experience with headsets seems to show that BT 2.0 headsets function better with the Kaiser the BT 1.x headsets.
Anyone else find this to be true?
I've been using the Plantronics 665 for months and it's great. A friend has used his for over a year. It has good noise cancellation, good volume, and it is very light weight.
I use a Jawbone on my Wizard and now my Tilt. It actually has better sound on my Tilt now, and people I talk to have asked me if I got a new headset when I switched to the Tilt.
The Jawbone is better than the Plantronics 510 I had and the old Jabra 320 (I think, older version of what is now the Jabra 500) for me with sound quality.
I do a LOT of conference calls, and am on the phone for sometimes hours dealing with system issues. The Jawbone has been great. I have even walked out of my office and gone downstairs to the kitchen before I started hearing cutting out and realized I had left my phone upstairs (so the range is great with the Tilt).
YMMV, but I recommend the Jawbone with the Tilt based on my experience.
Jawbone automatic gain?
When I first hooked up my jawbone to my 8525 the first thing I did was turn on the vaccuum and was amazed that it actually did ratchet up the volume. Shortly after that, it simply stopped adjusting. Now on the 8925, no change.
Happy with the jawbone, but it certainly doesn't do well with direct wind though.
My last headset I loved was my Bluetrek G2, comfortable beyond belief! Did fairly well in the wind as well...
Just received my Sony Ericsson HBH-DS980 Stereo Bluetooth Headset. It's being charged up right now. I'll let everyone know hows the sound quality tonight.
Paid: 99.99 + 5.95 Shipping = 105.94
Edited: Here is what i have experienced with this unit.
Here are the Specs: http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/products/accessories/overview/hbh-ds980?cc=&lc=
Sound: Great Clarity and rich Bass( Sounds like your in a car thats equipped with Sound System)
Range: Since it is Bluetooth Version 2.0 , it has better range than any other bluetooth headset Version 1.2. ( My previous Stereo Bluetooth by LG HBS-110 was V1.2. While listening to music, it got cut off when i went into another room, and came back on when it was in line of sight.) On the Sony Ericsson, it was cutting off a little bit but not completely off, and can go farther than like the LG)
so far thats with the Music portion. Still have to play around with it more to see whats great about it.

I think Sony DR-BT Serie is better. Its more a Headset for Bluetooth MP3 Player. They have better DA-Converter inside. I use in the moment ... DR-BT50.

i've been using the Sony DR-BT10CX for the past few months and am very pleased with the sound quality i am receiving. i am having two major problems that i do not know how to fix:
1. every time i go to connect the headset to the phone, i have to go into the bluetooth settings, uncheck the boxes a) wireless stereo and b) headset, then save those changes. then i have to go back into the settings and re-check the boxes and save. - this is a nightmare of an issue, when the headset should simply connect automatically when turned on.
2. making calls is fine, but when a call is received it does not answer through the headset, but through the phone. pointless if you are driving for example...
if anyone knows how i can fix this, i'd love to hear a solution...
MBR-100 Sony/Ericson stereo receiver
I'm using the MBR-100 Sony/Ericson stereo receiver to stream music to me car stereo via 3.5mm input cable and to me earbuds when I am riding on my motorcycle. It connects quickly, sounds good and lasts about a week between charges. I only commute about an hour a day. I got it for $80 at Fry Electronics. I have seen a few of them ob ebay as well.
HT820 + Telus P3050 Touch
I have the Motorola HT820 on a Telus Touch P3050 Vogue and it is very good. I am pleased with my choice.
Sadly I must say stay away from the BlueAnt X5's...horrid sound quality. It seems that the sony's have good sound quality, at least as good as a wired buds that are included. The X5's are much worse. Less spatial seperation, more "muddy" sound, just not good.
Everything I've heard and read about the Jawbone BT headset says that it's a very high quality unit, with excellent noise reduction/cancellation properties. I'll be getting one when I save up some pennies. (10,000 pennies to go!)
i'm using the BlueAnt Z9 with the new 3.4 firmware update and, for me, it's loud and clear with the Vogue. i actually have to turn it down...i have not had any complaints from others when using the headset. when i purchased the Z9 it had the 3.0 firmware and the volume was very acceptable to me. also, the 3.0 firmware allowed you to control the volume with the phone. with the 3.4 firmware, all volume is controlled by the headset.
Jawbone
I have the black jawbone best bluetooth I have used thus far and I have tested quite a few. connects flawlesly and quickly as soon as you turn it on and the noise cancelation that the jawbone is famous for actualy works
I have an old wep150 (samsung) I got it for another phone about a year and a half ago. Its sounds worse on the vogue than it did on my motorola phones. I hope to get a nice stero headset for listening to music and calls. I'm glad to hear the sound quality is good for these devices.
BT
I use the Jabra BT 5020 works awesome on my sprint (cdma) touch. Long life too.. I have always like the jabra products. You can also pair it with multiple devices. it has vibrate.
Timdawg
Just got the SE HBH-DS970 and it works pretty well. the call display only shows the number not the name unfortunetly. And My music tracks don't seem to show up on the screen. Any one else experience this?
I just got the new MOTOPURE H12 the other day and really like it. I got rid of the Jabra BT8010 because I felt like I had to yell into it. This new H12 is pricey at $129.00 but worth it because I am in the car alot. This thing is very small and very light. It comes with a cool desktop charger and carrying case that you can use as a charger also. Here is a link http://direct.motorola.com/hellomoto/h12/
Good question, CCRRAR!
Has anybody got a bluetooth to work with Voice Command??! The closest I've gotten has been with the Blue Ant Z9, I manage a RadioShack, and we just started carrying that unit. It is small, lightweight, comfortable, and very good volume. Better than almost any Motorola bluetooth re: volume. The plantronics are good volume as well, but a bit bulkier. But the Blue Ant actually recognizes Voice Command! The problem, like most, is it doesn't recognize the confirmation.
Very Frustrating!
Anyone found a fix? I've tried some that profess to be the "true fix" but no luck.

Here is a Music & Hands Free FM Transmitter from Verizon that is pretty sweet! I bought one of these last week and so far I'm impressed with the quality. It will set you back $130 bones though...
http://www.myventuri.com/
http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/store/accessoryPopup?item=accessoryMart&accessoryId=33022
Here are some details:
It has a hi res OLED screen that is white text on black background so it's easy to view in daylight and at night. It's not too bright at night, but it doesn't have a setting to change the brightness. It shows the current FM station by default and it will display the phone number when some one is calling. You can download your phone book to it as well, but I haven't figured how to download it from my XV6800 yet.
There are two buttons and a scroll wheel. The button on the top left is for changing FM stations. The one on the right is for the configuration menu: phone device type, pairing, paring reset, and FM on/off. Then scroll wheel works well for navigating through the menus. The wheel responds to the speed you turn it and it has a similar feel to the scroll wheel on the phone. There are also four buttons on the face surrounding the display and scroll wheel: Select Phone, Select Tunes, Answer/Play/Pause, and Hang-up/Stop.
The Bluetooth A2DP stereo over FM is killer! This is the main reason I bought this thing. The only drawback is finding a good FM station to transmit on, but you have the full FM spectrum to chose from. Overall, it works well and the sound quality is great. Also, no cables - hooray!
It has two (in & out) 3.5mm stereo jacks on the left side, and standard USB jack on the right side for charging 5v devices. I think this is a nice bonus if you want to hook up your other MP3 player...
The hands-free works very well. It will play a chime over the speakers and beep from the device to let you know a call is coming in. It will pause you music if the player supports it. The sound through the speakers is full sounding and not "tin can" sounding. The mic sound good on the other end of the call, and the noise canceling actually works - at least with my windows cracked @ 75mph.
I hope this helps someone who's in the market for one of these devices.
for the touch it does not sync up the phone book so it will probably not sync the titan's either.
Damn, the radio i have is the only year they did not put RDS on their units. BAH.
Other than that it looks pretty cool.
I have a Moto Rokr T5 on the way from Newegg. It looks like it has the same functions minus the audio in and out jacks. It was about $80.
I'll post some thoughts when it gets here.
link please
Sorry it's T505 not T5.

Moto T505
I ordered one of these T505s as well. Will report back but the reviews basically sound positive and it appears it should work as expected.
Mine came today. I haven't used it much yet but so far it seems really nice.
No trouble pairing with the Mogul. The audio streaming sounds really good.
More later.................
now that looks like something I will buy. Nice find.
that looks nice. now details, how is the music and calls, what programs are you using for music and what does it control. And while we are at it, throw in your audio set up in the car as well.
And now..... they are out of stock. BAH
So far the music playback is great. The FM transmitter is very powerful! It plays over the top of other stations with ease.
The channel selection is neat. Push the FM button and a nice british lady tells you which station to tune in. If the current station goes bad (hasn't happened yet) push the button again for a new station.
Sound quality over FM is pretty good as far as I can tell. I have a stock Toyota Tacoma 04 sound system and ears that have been exposed to a lot of loud noise, so take that for what it's worth.
If you take the phone out of range, when you get back in the car just tap the phone key to restore the connection.
Call quality seems fine. I've made a couple of calls today (while parked) and nobody complained so far.
I'm going to try leaving myself a couple messeges tomorrow and see how road noise factors in.
Audio controlls work with HTC Audio Manager and Windows Media but not TCPMP although the sound comes through fine.
thanks for the info. now to find one......
Moto T505
Echo the same results here. I love it. Very slick device. Now all I need to do is get the $2.99 upgrade to Sirius premium streaming since 32K sounds like crap on the car now...
Nice, but I'd really rather opt for the T605 and just do a clean install myself. I can't stand the thought of streaming my music via A2DP and it having my music quality capped at FM Quality.

I'm sure the 605 is a sexier solution but the sound from the 505 is pretty good. It's nice to be able to move it from car to car and the radio in the shop.
I'm really happy with this gadget so far.
Hey, when I search the forums for bluetooth a2dp I get overloaded with ROM posts.
I really wanted to ask someone here if they use any kind of bluetooth thing to connect to their car and play music.
I've found a couple things thru google, but none got good reviews.
here is 1
http://www.amazon.com/Scosche-motorMOUTH-Bluetooth®-Bluetooth-reception/dp/B001AVSWEE
I don't want voice dialing or anything like that, just something to play music in my car wirelessly.
Help!!
Unless you're willing to pay out the nose for some decent speakers, you're probably better off buying an fm transmitter and using your car speakers.
The problem is there isn't much of a market for what you're wanting, and sometimes its difficult for battery powered speakers to overcome road noise while not destroying sound quality. If you're bent on this notion though, take a look in outdoor wireless speakers. They will most likely not only be cheaper but have more oomph in them than a "car" bluetooth speaker.

Why don't you post what type of car and what type of car radio you have to begin with? Best route to go is to get an addon that is specific to your radio, or buy a new head unit all together that includes BT built in.
This is what I've been looking at: http://www.amazon.com/Kensington-LiquidAUX-Bluetooth-Remote-Phones/dp/B0011UIX2K/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&s=wireless&qid=1278794237&sr=8-12
Can anyone say how the sound quality of A2DP really is? Is it equal to the line out?
I did a search, because I was curious myself on what you could use and I found something on ebay that may be worth looking into.
For the price, you can answer calls and you can stream your music as well from what it says.

I have a 2007 scion tc with the stock radio. The car has a power port, ipod dock and a line in aux port inside the center console. I usually run the line from my phone in the dock to the line in port. I can power a bluetooth receiver from inside my console, so I would really just want a receiver if it sounds good. Fm receivers sound horrible, hoping that a2dp sounds better.

Thanks everyone for the help and replies!
Man I miss my TC, I loved that car..... Anyway, I find the quality is good for being wireless. I guess it could always be better I would rather use a cable, but you cant beat wireless streaming. I like that device pardonmyfreedom posted about, think I will def get one of those.

I would stay away from FM transmitters for streaming music...****ty quality. Often sounds muffled and distorted not to mention inconsistent. Often switching between channels to find the best quality and then five mins it sounds like hell again...
My 2007 Prius has a line-in jack right next to a 12V DC input in the center console. I've tried numerous solutions, figuring that anything I use will be nicely hidden away in the center console. Unfortunately it seems that anything you plug into 12V DC will give you horrendous sound.
I have not gone so far as to find and try out something that is powered off AA batteries, but it would be an interesting test to show whether or not the DC adapter is what's killing sound quality.
For reference, I tried the Nexus One multimedia desktop dock (when I had an N1) and a Belkin unit which I should have known better as anything with the Belkin name on it sucks.
The other issue for me is that even if the sound was crystal clear and perfect, Android 2.1 (and I'm willing to bet 2.2 as well) will not auto-connect to A2DP. Only headset or hands free profiles. So I'd end up spending a minute getting the thing setup before even going anywhere. Too much hassle for anything but a 30+ minute drive.
FWIW, I have the Kensington LiquidAUX Bluetooth Car Kit.
2007 Honda Element, Aux/12V plug on the passenger side dashboard (roughly 4 feet away).
See: Amazon.com: Kensington LiquidAUX Bluetooth Car Kit with Remote for Music Phones: Cell Phones & Service
MP3 and music audio sounds pretty clear, though audiophiles will be disappointed. I'm used to listening to internet radio and satellite radio, so audio quality only needs to not hiss and pop for me to be happy. Besides, my car has a boat load of road noise, so no biggie.
Call quality sounds crisp for the incoming portion, as in I can hear the other party loud and clear. Unfortunately, the other party has a hard time hearing me. If you know what the speaker phone gives the other party in terms of call quality, imagine it being SLIGHTLY softer sounding to them. So, I can hear them perfectly fine, but they have a slightly harder time hearing me (compared to me being on speakerphone, and they on regular headset). Being closer to the microphone doesn't improve anything, and I could be 1 foot from the microphone or 5 feet from the microphone. It sounds the same to them regardless. They describe me as sounding muffled. Speakerphone already sounds muffled, and bluetooth with the Kensington sounds softer and still muffled.
The remote is a nifty feature, too. It controls the native audio player for play/pause/fwd/rwd. It also controls Slacker for play/pause/skip. AWESOME! Voice dialing doesn't work (though I hope FroYo fixes this).
Overall, I'm happy with the product and will use it while driving and simply speak a bit louder and slower while on the phone. Maybe FroYo will improve call quality enough to make this a better headset, but at least it's great for bluetooth audio playback.
Sorry, no pictures as of yet, because it's dark. I'll try to remember to take some tomorrow.
motorokr t505
motorokr t505 FTW.
Looked around with no luck. Was wondering if there are any reports of the OTA leak solving some of the BT issues.
+1 for the Motorola T505. I've been using mine for well over a year, and I love it.
Here are some photos of the Kensington LiquidAUX
http://androidforums.com/accessorie...w-kensington-bluetooth-liquidaux-car-kit.html
I have a Arkon car dock. Could I plug in my Liquid AUX in my cig lighter under my arm rest, and just dock my car with my ARKON car dock?
I have the one just like the one from ebay. Very happy with it just a few limitations, the bt has to be connected manually reach time
Pause and play don't work on all apps. Volume had to be down a little on the phone to get it to stop over saturation. But then its clear, loud pauses when in a call (have a plantronics975 for the phone)

It's very good. No difference between it and the line out directly.
I just removed the "calling" part of it so I could keep a bluetooth headset (for calling - plantronics pro) from the bluetooth profile - works perfectly.
-D
Yeah, I got the liquid aux one and disabled the phone part too. I use tasker with it to turn bluetooth on automatically when I pop it into the car mount. I am loving the bluetooth sound, same as line in.

Anyone know of a widget or some other way for my phone to connect to my bluetooth? It doesn't connect every time, I have to dig into the settings and connect manually 50% of the time.

I have the LiquidAUX installed in my Z. For some extra punch, I also installed a Boostaroo between the LiquidAUX and my Sat Input. I think the audio quality is quite good. However, My ears aint what they used to be, and I do have a really nice BOSE system in the Z, so those two factors have to be considered.
The LiquidAUX connects to my DInc as soon as I start the car, so it seems well integrated. The only manual step I have is to launch Slacker, which I listen to exclusively.
One thing that needs to be fixed is, when I initiate a call via bluetooth, Slacker is not automatically muted, so the music really screws up the voice recognition. I have to pause Slacker before I initiate the call. I'm sure this will be fixed at some point, seeing how voice dialing just started working with 2.2.
All in all, I'm pretty please with how this setup works, and I have no issues with audio quality.
So Ive recently bought the phone and have been overall very impressed with its performance however I have come across this issue which makes it really annoying to listen to music... I have 2 pairs of headphones an In-ear House Of Marley and an over the ear V-Moda Crossfade M 100 and the house of Marley pair works fine when I connect it through the Huawei provided adaptor.. However the V-Moda doesn't in the sense that the audio sounds really weird... If I play a song I can hear the instrumentation really clearly but the vocals sound like they're singing from the end of a tunnel.. These headphones have been working fine and still do on another phone that i have so it's clearly an issue with the phone and/or the adaptor... My question is as to whether there is any solution to this at present either within the settings or by changing the adaptor or something? And also whether this issue has been popping up for any other headphones cause I plan on purchasing a Bererdynamic Byron in the future...
