I have decided it would be a great accessory to have some Bluetooth speakers. I really despise low quality speakers, and distortion is a definate faux pas. So I did a bit of searching and it seems that Parrot are making some nice speakers, and Acoustic Energy as well. The Parrot Boombox looks great, but no batteries so that's no good. Parrot Party seems OK, but apparently at loud volumes distorted. Does anyone have the Acoustic Energy? They too are apparently plagued with distortion at high levels, or so I read.
Does anyone have first hand experience with these or any other BT Speakers? All tips would be much appreciated.

... so I guess nobody has BT speakers? Oh well.
I found these...
... my mouth is watering, but they are too expensive. I'll keep looking I guess

Hey All,
I drive alot for an expedite company, at times in vans and at times in Straight Trucks. Sometimes these trucks van be very loud, as as I can get bored while driving, I talk alot. Here is what I am looking for in a good bluetooth headset, lets see if all you wonderful people can point me in the right direction. Importance of an item is listed from top to bottom.
Oh, this is for an Alltel PPC6800 (Titan) so it is a bluetooth 2.0 phone i think.
1. It needs to pick up me, and not the noise of the truck or that of the road. This is a very large problem with most Bluetooth headsets I try. The ability of the headset to help block the noise around me so I can head well is also a plus.
2. Voice Quality. So often I get crackle or drop out with some headsets. and this can be with as little as 3ft to the phone, quality is a must.
3. Comfort. I currently have a Jabra over the ear headset, and after I wear it more than an hour or so it is sore in my ear. Good comfort is a must.
4. Battery Life. I talk alot when I am driving, nothing better to do, and in most states holding the phone while driving is illegal. Since there is no headset jack on this damn phone, my bluetooth is primart, thus good battery life is a must.
5. Price. Not a major issue. I have no problem spending on a headset that will do what I want. I am not rich by any means, but not afraid to spend $100+ it is really works well and will do what I want. I am not looking for the hype, I am looking for the function.
As a side note, I have no problem with bigger headsets, even full over the head ones (which in some ways I like better). Or a headset that can be a combo such as a good stereo headphone and good phone headset.
Please help me oh wondrous and great xda geeks, you are my only hope.

I have a Jawbone. It has noise cancelation technology. I think Plantronics has a similar model, it's a little cheaper.
I would assume the noise canceling works well for people hearing you, how does it do for you hearing them in a loud environment?

Oh come on guys... I was pretty much dediced to dump my Galaxy S for the Desire because of need of a functional GPS... but I want the mobile device to have good audio quality with audiophile headphones (mostly low-impedance IEMs) and have heard some users say that the Desire has an audible hiss.
So no black, dark, flat silence and great sound? The Galaxy S has pretty amazing sound quality on the 3.5mm except if you use high impedance gear that really need and extra amp... but with more gentle stuff like Mylars, RE0 or Koss PortaPros it sings amazingly.
Can anyone confirm this?
I am now reduced to two options
1) Return my SGS and get a Desire + a good audio player
2) Keep my SGS and get a dedicated GPS unit
*sigh*
I find there is hiss on my desire when paired with low impedance IEMs (UE11). It's fine with higher impedance phones like RE2 and KSC75s, but bear in mind, I usually listen at low volumes.
If you're looking for a good audio player that works well with low impedance IEMs, I can recommend the Sansa Fuze and Sansa Clip from personal experience.
Hope that helps
What I'm really looking for is some sort of audio input, whether it be inline mic built into headphones or a bluetooth headset, that is good at noise canceling, but I want it relatively cheap. I'm not expecting anything extraordinary, but I don't want the sound of the wind screwing up the call from my end.
I don't mean something that blocks external sound from entering my ears, I want a mic that will record clear audio despite the wind during my otherwise quiet walks.

Bulky, ugly and quite pricy but Extremely good audio quality(par with SH!), superb noise cancelation and long lasting battery.
I own one of these, and they are damn good.
Guys i am planing to buy sennheiser HD 518 and i have a confusion that these headphones will work great with our S3 or do i need an external amp for sound quality issues. thanks for ur help guys!!!
They should sound good. I have a pair of Audio Technica M50's and they sound great. Plenty of bass and the highs are just perfect. I also have the AC!D mod installed, and it makes a very big difference. The only two problems that I have is that at a low volume you can hear a hiss, but that's due to the amplifier in the phone. The second problem is that I have to download only high quality music. Anything besides high quality sounds like crap.
I just bought these last week and I'm no expert on head phones and such, but I can tell you straight they sound almost perfect to me, I don't think you'll be needing any external amplifier for it as they sound pretty great to me.
I have Sennheiser HD555 and I can say the sound quality is exceptional (very detailed and clear with 192kbps ogg). Don't worry the sensitivity because I only need to turn half way.
Had my Note 8 Pro for a day and more than happy with the graphics, music quality and general performance. However, the Bluetooth call quality is pretty much unusable. Tried a couple of ear buds including Sony, BOSE and Jlabs. That bad that I disconnect and use either the phones speaker or some old wired headphones.
Anyone else had this and if so how did you fix?
Thanks....
