Re: The Best Bluetooth device for the Touch......

I must be crazy or just too picky. I bought the Z9 when I first got my Mogul, and it had this buzzing sound that would go in and out if you turned the volume up within a click or two of the top. It was enough to annoy me. I ended up trading from the Mogul to the Touch, and the Touch had the same problem. So then I tried exchanging the Z9, and it had the same problem. So, it seemed to me like this was some problem with the Z9 and the HTC bluetooth, as it followed both a change from one device to another and a replacement of the headset itself.

Maybe I'm just deaf (which is possible) and nobody else ever needs to turn it up above the lowest volume levels. But in many environments I couldn't hear unless I turned it up to the point where the buzzing started. It drove me crazy. I was really disappointed, as I loved everything about the headset aside from that.

For now, I've got the Plantronics Voyager 855. I like it, but not as much as I would have liked the Z9 if it didn't have the buzzing.
