they're coming out with new "upgraded" ones next month, just an FYI

9/29/2006 12:26:32 AM

are you talking about the ones that were on woot a week or so ago? if so, yes, yes they are muy bueno

if it has a 3.5mm stereo (aka 1/8" headphone) jack, then yes you can.

for a non-bluetooth device, you will actually be plugging this transmitter (a box larger than most small mp3 players ) into it ... so it will take up a bit more space than usual.

for bluetooth enabled devices, the general consensus right now is that you will be able to connect directly via the transmitter in your devices, as long as it is A2DP-compliant.


i'm still trying to figure out why this transmitter is considerably larger than the previous version, which i have.

on the positive side of everything, the headphones look greatly improved in comfort and weight ... and the bluetooth technology is greatly improved since they are finally allowing us to potentially not use the transmitter and use the A2DP ability in our devices.

The older ones support A2DP as well I thought

9/29/2006 12:10:28 PM

as far as i've been able to figure out with mine, that's not the case ... anyone have input on the older versions supporting A2DP?

9/29/2006 12:11:49 PM

i was wrong ... the old headphones support A2DP as well, my problem was the toshiba stack my bluetooth card is using wasn't allowing me A2DP access even though my chip supports it. toshiba can suck it.

now it works great ... widcomm ftw!

I have the old ones... i got them cause well they were cheap and i wasn't sure how well they were going to work.

the only gripe i have is the supplied instructions suck. but the online help was awesome.
(the supplied instructions didn't tell you how to initially link the headphones w/ the reciever.)


I got mine for $40 and they're on new egg for something like $140
i <3 pricewatch.

again i use them at work for my pc so i have the usb thing that looks like a thumb drive or a wireless adapter.

the sound quality is very nice (way better than any other $40 headphones)
and the ability to skip songs without having to leave cad is pretty nice too

update....
THEY ARE CRAP

the band is cracked @ the back ( i mean my head is sorta fat... but this is b.s. and they randomly stop charging....
thank god i didn't spend 140 bucks on this crap.

A bunch of people talked about the band breaking, thats one of the things Logitech wanted to fix. Some people said boiling the plastic and remolding it worked. Anyways, mine still work fine and I got them for $25 on woot

10/11/2006 10:13:36 AM

Is it compatible with the Nano?

10/11/2006 10:29:37 AM

you're talking about the band cracking on the old ones, right? that's a known but unadmitted issue. so far mine haven't broken, i just try to be careful, i'm sure they'll break soon though.

hopefully it'll be a problem of the past with the new ones. although i'd really love if they could come up with some bluetooth earbuds

10/11/2006 2:38:17 PM

they would be hard to keep track of.
