Are any of you guys using bluetooth for headphones, IEM's etc.
-
Ok...well I'll check at a later date and see if anyone uses it yet....I'm talking with portable players, tablets, phones, those type DAPs.

Hi,
Funny you should mention bluetooth earphones because I just bought a pair of Jabra tabs and previously I've used Jabra Halos. Both products are petty good. The Jabra tabs lack a bit of bass but my office is not radio friendly and I now have to use earphones to keep me sane. I'm sure there are lots of other products to consider as well.
Cheers Rod

I bought a Sony SBH20 receiver which comes with earphones but they can be unplugged so any iem or bud you have will work. I was using it with my DT1350's and they sounded good. Its a rechargeable clip on thing in a bunch of colors...I got Orange as it was like $28.00 that day for some reason. Here is a link if anyone wants to give it a try. Its fun to walk away and grab a snack or whatever while your music chugs away from the tablet I left behind.

Anyway its an option, it sounds fine and its relatively cheap.

A few months ago, i remember trying the Philips SHB9100 but the sound was not up to my expectations. I had to make several EQ adjustments to make it sound better. :(

About a year ago I picked up a pair of Phiaton BT headphones off Amazon for about $130

They have noise cancelling which does a decent job and they also allow you to make and receive phone calls assuming you are using your phone as your portable device.
They sound much better than I expected. Since they are in ear monitors, they give good isolation.
Though a little on the pricey side, I'm really happy with them. They have replaced a similarly priced set of Shure IEMs which (BTW) don't sound near as good.

Hi,
I also just bought a pair of Aftershokz Bluez bone conduction technology earphones to use whilst going to the gym and office use. They don't sound quite as good as normal earphones but I can hear what is going on around me as well.
