Yes -- I have used the Motorola S9 (now broken) and the Jabra BT8010. Sounds good with both. Go for it.
hi there
i use it with my sony hbh ds970.
the only issues are:
would love it to be louder
and it doesnt display the caller name or song on the headset led.
over all the quality is good though.
hope this helps.

Any louder and mine would burst my eardrums! Are you sure yours is the genuine item? I've heard there are fakes arround which aren't as loud.
Or do you just like your music VERY loud?
ive tryed 3 bluetooth stereo headphones now, none of them where loud enough. my last set plantronics are ok, but you just cant beat the quality of a wired set. IMHO
And AMEO/ATHENA could use a plain wired bose headset : 99 euro the in-ear, but you can use also the noise cancelling ones ....
I assume that my hbh's are real given that i purchased them from an orange store (at 40% more than expansis- my fault for being impatient I guess).
the supplied headset is akin to something you would find in a cracker. my b&o A8 headphones sound great but i want auto switching between calls and music hence the sony option..
can any one suggest a bluetooth tranceiver with caller id (that works with wm6), built in mike and media player controls that allow me to use my own headphones?
oh... and by the way i do like loud music but my bt headset is significantly quieter.
cheers

You might consider the Jabra BT8010 which can function either way.

Hi IN,
does your HBH-DS970 vibrate at all? Mine doesn't and I can't find info on how to set it to vibrate mode. If it doesn't vibrate then this headset and its retarded sister (HBH-DS980, which I bought) are the dumbest headsets that have ever been built. They don't VIBRATE!!! So the only way to get call notification is to wear the ear pieces all the time. If you're thinking of buying it for your Athena, save yourself the trouble. DON'T!!!!!!! I'm returning it to Fry's Electronics after work today. Too bad as they are soo stylish. But then it's common for hot looking guys/girls to have no brains..... and hot looking electronics to have important functions missing!!!
hi there
nope mine doesn't vibrate but then to be fair I purchased in knowing that it doesn't.
there is a bluetooth watch (thingy) that will eventually be compatible with wm phones that will vibrate (not the sony/fosil ones). I will post back once it reaches market.
In an ideal world I would love a remote bluetooth device with vibrate, led/lcd (compatible with wm), built in mike, allows me to use my B&O head phones, complete control of media player (fm radio would also be nice).
surely not too much to ask for???
I think the closest is the NOKIA-HS-12W (not sure if it still marketed though)
Cool... Thanks for the info.
im looking for something that i can listen to music from my phone wireless through a bluetooth headset... anyone have something like this? whats compatible with our phone? i want something sleek and small
BT Headphones
Hi from Germany, I'm using the Sony Ericsson HBH-DS970.
And I think, no I'm sure the are very good.
Have a look here:
http://reviews.cnet.com/bluetooth-headsets/sony-ericsson-hbh-ds970/4505-12523_7-32147864.html
I use it with the Mort Player and it's very good.
Try.
Best greetings
I use the Motorola MotoRokr S9. I love them. Took a while for them to stretch out and for my ears to get used to them. Other than that, the sound is awesome, they are stylish and durable, and they also support hands-free mode to take calls. I recommend them if you are willing to get used to the fit.

I have the Sony Ericsson HBH-DS980 and they work great. I am able to pair them with my laptop for stereo and also with the Kaiser for calls. Then when I leave the office I can pair exclusively to the Kaiser.
Work great and have suprizing battery life.

I have the Sony Ericsson HBH-DS980 as well, great headphones, you need to install the jetware bluetooth extension to enable some of the features though but they work really well. battery just goes on and on
Plantronics Pulsar 260: These worked ok over all, but two negatives. Music quality was not up to par, and volume was just to low. They are worthless in a noisy environment.
Moto HT820: These work flawlessly. Functionality is perfect. Sound quality is awesome for bluetooth head phones. Only one negative. They are HUGE. I couldn't wear them in public without some embarrassment.
Moto SoundPilots s705: I like this type of ear phones overall. Music playback was a little bertter than ok, and it had a FM radio. I liked that! But I had to return them because everybody said I sounded muffled on them.
Moto s9: These are the ones I have settled down with. I was skeptical they could match the sound quality of the HT820s, but they do! I like the form because they don't stick out like bug ears. The one negative, phone calls only play in one ear. What's up with that? All the others play in both years.

when you install the Jetware software all the features of the DS980 work except for viewing phonebook and music track name.
You're able to see your call history etc, owner information and voice dialling over bluetooth with MS Voice command
for a full list look here http://www.jetwaremobile.com/
It's a free trial and you can always uninstall it, i did notice every time you reinstall it the trial starts again

it has in ear buds attached so you can't fit your own to the DS980, it's a sony walkman product anyway so you know they're going to be normal sony quality
Im currently using:
Moto HT820 and DR-BT10CX and i just ordered the HBH-DS970. The first two works good on my Kaiser and Treo 680.
I find that the DR-BT10CX has a longer range compared to Moto's. And even though its a small headset, it seems to last longer than my moto's.
anyone have any other suggestions?
If lots-of-bass is your thing...
I have had Plantronics 590 (I think they were called), some HP phones, Motorola 820, but I settled on the iTech BluePro (http://www.itechdynamic.com/en/products_spec.asp?cid=3&pid=03020).
They are big, over-the-head headphones...but I listen a lot to music every day, and sometimes in noisy environments (in trafic walking to/from work, at the gym), AND most of my music is in the trance/techno/electronica/dance genres...so I prefer a headset that has lots and lots of bass...and these are the best wireless headphones I have heard in that department...actually...they are the best headphones I have had in that area, period!
PROs with iTech BluePro
Excellent sound for "techno-dudes" like me
Comfortable (IF you don't mind the "big-over-the-head"-look)
Long batterylife (20+ hours playtime, 550+ standby time)
Uses one AA battery (I use a reachargable battery)
CON's with iTech BluePro
No battery indicator (have not seen ANY headphones with this though)
The "hold multipurpose button for 3 secs to turn on/off" (same on all BT headphones I tried though)
When used for talking on phone, it seems to me that people on other end perceive me as more unclear than with the Motorola 820's I had, which people said sounded excellent
...in short...I am very happy with these headphones...untill someone comes out with simmilar headphones with a batteryindicator and a dedicated on/off button (so that I with a quick glance can see they are on, and turn on/off in an instant).
I just ordered the Logitech HS200. My brother has it and it works great.
Im using the sonorix c3's atm. Its really nice for the price but the earbuds that come with it blow. So if you already have nice headphones this is a nice set
I love the Motorola S9, I use it with me phone and my 5g ipod at the same time, i think it is the only one that can do that, it mast have two BT chips in there..
I have New in a box the Motorola HT820 + usb BT PC stereo adapter.. $40 + shipping
The Motorola S9 are pretty cool and absolutely a must for working out. They are pretty thin and since they wrap around the back of the head, many people don't even notice you wearing them. One problem I had with them was that the volume buttons got stuck and could only adjust volume down. Soon enough I could not hear and had to exchange them. I figured it was due to heavy sweating while working out. This pair I wipe down after every workout and they've been fine.
I tried SONY CMT-HX5BT HiFi stereo without problem Also volume control works like a charm
I've been using the Nokia BH-501 and they seem to work great. Doesn't have as many controll function as of the the other ones but their pretty light and comfortable. They also fold and has 11hours play time in music mode. For $40 from buy.com its not a bad deal. Also found the Motorola HT820 for $29.99 from n1wireless.com. Best deal I've seen on those.
I would like to know what are the good headsets available for kaiser where the sound quality is great without any call drops and static and which is compatible with dutty's v3 .
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I currently use the Blue Ant Z9 with Dutty's v2 (Medium) ROM. Works great.
And I would like to know what this has to do with Kaiser upgrades. C'mon guys, is it that hard to use the appropriate forum?
I have tried several headsets (sony 980, Motorola 820, and Jabra 8010) and have settled on using the jabra set as my primary set because it is more comfortable then the 820, and does NOT have drop issues like the sony 980. the moto set works verY well but i found the wrap around uncomfortable. I'm using Dutty's v2 currently.
Jabra 8040
Hi ,
I started using Motorla S9 , its one of the best bluetooth headsphone / handsfree i have used. The stereo quality is gr8 !! and even the handsfree is good even with little bit of noise around you . i recommed the S9!.
HTC S100's with a decent pair of headphones for me. (Usually my little B&O earphones, occasionally my big old Sennheisers)

Another 8040 here. So far so good. Waiting for the Invisio Q7 to launch next month.
jabra bt 620s here . I love it , don't have any problems. Only when I go by bike and the wind is blowing in mic when calling but that is to be expected.
The Jawbone is the best headset on the market IMHO. Works phenominally with the TILT.
I have 3 headsets. 2 of them are incredibly quiet, even at full volume. The 3rd is a Jawbone. It is actually painfully loud, but sounds great, to me and to the other person on the phone. I would go for that.
copied from previous post.....
I've used this headset for about a year, first with an Eten x500 and now with the tilt. Performance has been near perfect. On the tilt, I've never had a dropped signal while playing music, sound quality is decent, works with MS voice command. I don't know much about the manufacturer or support as I haven't had any issues with the device.
http://www.slashphone.com/106/3981.html
Another vote for the Jawbone. Works great. Also can attest to the performance of the Sony Ericsson HBH DS980 stereo headset. Works great as well...but you need the bluetooth extensions from JetWare to get it to do almost everything....phone book transfer doesnt work but everything else is there.
Brad
The S9
The Motorola S9 is extremely sexy and the Audio quality is great. I got mine off ebay (new, sealed for 40 bucks with ship), cause I was told they only come included with certain Motorola phones?
Anyway, that what I would recommend
Jabra 8040

I think the OP requested information on the 'best bluetooth *headphone*'. The Jabra 8040 seems to be a headset, and seems to only able to answer phone calls and not play music, as one ear is left uncovered and void of hearing any sound.

Plantronics Voyager 855.
Better than the S9's I've had. Better than the HS820 headphones.
Awesome as a regular BT headset. Semi-noise reduction and even EQ sound as a stereo A2DP headset.
i've been looking at some bluetooth headphones for a while, and i'm really looking for something thats an in ear style, and not too bulky especially when i'm on the go. these seem to be the best fit...but has anyone used them at all on a kaiser/tilt/tytn ii? i know a few people say that they're running into connectivity issues w/ some bluetooth devices, but i wanna know if this will work w/ the tilt
http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/pro...980?cc=us&lc=en
amazon has it for 105, so its not lookin too bad with me...
i has this in 60€ to sell.
sound quality is great, best ive tried.
only problem is after a phone call it will not go back to music and instead will drop the bluetooth link. fairly easy to reconnect by pressing the play/pause button on the headset when this happens but annoying all the same.

I have the HBH-DS970 and it works very well - great sound. I don't know what the difference is with the 980 - I don't see the 980 listed on the USA accessories list. My guess is that it would work well for you.
I'm so done with wired headphones. Having to spend hours detangling wires is tiresome. I've now opted to only using bluetooth stereo headphones, like the sony one I'm using, which is lightweight and doesn't have a bluetooth unit to carry around!
The only other wired headphones I'm opend to are the 'mini bud' headphones which have retractable wiring:
http://www.boxwave.com/products/minibuds/index.htm
just got the headphones a few days ago, i think thursday. the quality is great, my sister said that the phone quality was good, she heard me just fine. pretty good bass response, the only thing i've had problems with is using the contacts menu on the headphone and getting into my phone. i think it might be more of a problem w/ the kaiser bluetooth setup though. anybody know if there's any kind of updates for bluetooth drivers for the kaiser...i'm going to check to see if theres anything for the headphones on sonys site too
I wanna buy one, but what is the best for my kaiser?
Thanks for the comments!
I just got a Jabra BT8010 Stereo head set, it works great.
Lots of info and opinions about bluetooth stereo headsets

Read through some of these threads, found by searching for "Bluetooth Stereo Headset" (surprise!) in this very forum.
i use some gear 4 bluphones, fit my head nicer than my motorola k9s
I'm using the Plantronics Pulsar 590A with my Kaiser, Laptop and Desktop.
It's the best BT Headset i've used by now... you can listen to stereo music in real good quality and if there's an incomming call, it switches to phone mode, stops the music and you can use the internal mic... It comes with a BT module for MP3 players or anything with a 3,5mm audio port, USB charger, normal power plug and a relly nice "docking station".
I feel there are two ways to go about this in general:
1. Get a good set of in-ear headphones if you are comfortable with them, and a bluetooth adapter with a standard 3.5mm jack. This way, you can use any headphones you want with whatever bluetooth devices you have, and you can replace the headset if something goes wrong with them. The downside to this is that I haven't really found a completely satisfactory bluetooth adapter for this purpose yet. They all have some miniscule (or not so miniscule) flaw that hinders performance. That being said, paired with a good set of headphones they do give satisfactory results with music most of the time, and the other features are just up to the adapter. While top end headphones like those from Shure, Ultimate Ears, Etymotic and such will have stellar audio performance, the adapter is usually the limiting factor as well as bluetooth itself. It is nice that you have a pair of great headphones for other devices, but I suppose the whole point of having BT headphones is to avoid carrying and using other devices...
2. Invest in a good set of BT headphones. Some older models like the Motorola S9s have fallen to very affordable prices and have reached a great price/performance ratio. Look into other offerings from Jabra and Plantronics as well, making note of which features are most useful to you as I would say the audio quality is generally acceptable. Some Sony models allow multiple pairing if that's something you're after, while other models from Jabra and Plantronics have small screens for caller ID and other information. Unfortunately, these options rarely come with different sizing options so achieving a good 'fit' becomes a matter of trial, error and money. While none of the models I have tried are directly 'uncomfortable', I can't see myself wearing any of them on a long train or bus trip to be honest, which is why I stick to my solution above.
Hope I could help, and use the search feature on the forums for opinions on more specific models.
I've got an older Bluetake i-Phono Plus set of stereo headphones.. have had them for about three years now and they still work great..
they work well and have fold down microphone as well so you can talk also
