Can you use a Bluetooth Headset to listen to the TV/Radio, etc, & which is the best?

[efunk33]

I want to buy a bluetooth headset for calls of course, but also want to use it to listen to Pandora radio, Sprint TV, etc. Is this possible?

If so, which bluetooth headset is the best? There are SO many different ones, and I keep reading about digital ones and analog upconverting, etc. I've never once owned a bluetooth so I'm at a loss.

I really appreciate any help you are able to provide.

I plan on ordering from this website, which has a large selection of bluetooth headsets. Let me know if there is a better website.

I bought the Altec Lansing BT headset from Sprint for music and audible books...they also work well for movies etc. and can double for a phone call...I use a Jawbone Prime for my main talking headset though...although the Altecs work ok, they just don't cut the background noice like the JB.


I like the Altecs alot...pricy though $99...but I got 25% off, so that helped a lot...give a try...you got 30 days to try um out!

I also use my Untimate Ears for serious music listening...but sometimes its nice to be wireless

In your opinion, what's the best bluetooth set for $50 or less on that site I listed in the OP? I'm going to be using it for calls, music, tv, etc. Pretty much everything.

Thanks.

You should check out the Oakley O-ROKR glasses. Bluetooth stereo and hands free phone, all built into the frame.

I'm really diggin' my new Motorokr S9-HD headphones that I just picked up today. Especially now that I have them fully figured out and working right.

They are stereo bluetooth, with WOW SRS HD. They really do have great sound, as good or better then many wired ones I've used. They are closer to $99.00 though. They have buttons for next/last track, phone voice command, volume up/down and use the same type of charger cables as the TP2, the mini USB.

Actually, this site has them right now for $53.99!!!

I just spent $99.00 at Best Buy today, but I needed them today.

I have those as well but have had many problems and am now on my third replacement set....the battery decreases its charge and after a few months only lasts about 10 min. I bought them to use at the gym (one of their selling points is using them for exercise) and found out that the warrenty does cover damage form sweating. Plus they are not that comfortable..(I have a big head).

I just bought some SBH500 (samsung) and they work and feel great. They have padded ear cups instead of the ear buds.. but I now like them better.

I LOVE my Plantronics Voyager 855 Stereo headset! The phone sends ALL feedback to the headset even without the second ear attachment on it, so it looks like I'm wearing a regular bluetooth earpiece, but can hear everything that is going on with my phone as well. With the 2nd earpiece attachment on it, I am in total stereo!

Check it out!
