Re: BT sound poor on most apps, okay during voice calls
After testing the stock rom and an upgraded radio, the sound quality remained poor.
I called Plantronics and was told that poor sound to non-A2DP headsets is characteristic of the Titan and similar recent A2DP models, but not the 6700. Apparently good sound quality is reserved for A2DP bluetooth connections on the Titan. I did quite a bit of searching without finding another solution, though I found that the problem has been reported elsewhere such as http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread...ighlight=tinny. Suggestions included using the equalizer and DSP features of Pocket Player ($), or SRS WOW HD (free) which improved sound for some users,. I also tried changing the registry setting HKLM\\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\A2DP\Settings\U seJointStereo without effect. Some comments said that podcasts were listenable with equalization, but I found that I could only tolerate a few minutes on the 510. I think the quality varies among headset models. For example, flyers2114 reported good sound from a Jawbone 2 (http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.p...0&postcount=32). I'll try a Plantronics 855 A2DP headset though I hate to give up the 510 because the ability for callers to hear me clearly is most important for me and reportedly the 855 doesn't match the 510 here (http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.p...8&postcount=28). I also don't like gel ear tips and prefer the behind the ear headset style. Last edited by cattledogit; 01-16-2009 at 07:26 PM. |

Re: BT sound poor on most apps, okay during voice calls
I'm happy with the Plantronics 855. My callers report that the sound quality at their end is as good as the 510's, though MS Voice Command seems to have more trouble understanding the 855. I like the 855's stereo capability, and I've gotten used to the gel ear tips.

Re: BT sound poor on most apps, okay during voice calls
a2dp is the best quality you are going to get. you must have an a2dp BT. i recommend voyager 855 by planttronics. the a2dp sound is the best you are going to get with a BT that size. (ear size instead of covering over the ear)
