stereo or mono?

I had a pair of Motorola bt820 (stereo) I managed to get working with my k-jam - no buzzing, but the k-jam cpu was a bit small and it kept stopping - the k-jam doesn't by default have an a2dp profile.

And a mate of mine has some dell ones (stereo again) on his sony phone, and being a bit of an audiofile he would have mentioned a buzzing noise...

I use Blueant - I have three headsets and they are great.

blueant have some very nice headsets.
i also saw "SuperTooth Two" BlueTooth Portable Handsfree Kit that may be better as i really want it for the car, and this would suit both my one and partners. has anyone tried this?

For the car, I would recommend those blueAnt Sutpertooth ones as well, bought one of those for the wife and would never go back.....and now her phone since in the official nokia car kit cradle that doesn't fit her current phone.

The OTHER reason to be using bluetooth instead of the factory supplied car kits (where the connectors change every 10 minutes).

hello again,, i was lucky and bought a brand new supertooth blueant online last night so i am a happy girl . as i am a mum and don't like using my phone in the car while driving i have to have some sort of handsfree device. this one will suit my partner and my own fone without changing anything very convenient.

thank you all so much. this site is amazing for help and solutions.
i am recommending GEEKZONE to all my friends

Yes, we have a supertooth in the car, it's really a great tool if you are driving around and have toddler(s) in the car - even ifyou drive by yourself, much better than talking on the phone!

hello everyone. hope the labour weekend is treating you all well.

i received my blueant supertooth today and spent the last few hours trying out all the functions with our phones. very clear sound
only trouble is that each time i try to pair up both jasjams to the bluetooth it only accepts one phone being paired with it at a time.
if i pair my partners phone with it, the bluetooth works beautifully, then i pair up my phone with it and it works perfectly, when i try to use my partners phone with it again, it does not respond to the second phone. i have to delete the settings and pair the phone up with it again, same if i try to work with my phone again. ( hope that sounds clear)
according to the manual you can pair 2 devices at the same time (multi-pairing) that is the supertooth can remember connection settings for 2 different devices and will connect with either when requested. you will overwrite the first paired device by pairing a 3rd device to supertooth.9 the pairing rule is first in first out)

what am i doing wrong here?

thanks

Ensure both devices are serperate labels and for me I place different names for the same headset on the device, ie MSmob_1 v & btx31 then MSmob_2 & btx32 dont know if this would work for you but it works for me

I have found also that the expensive headsets are not nessacarily the best, my 1st headset was a erricson that was bout $80 and it performed better than my nokia bt800 at $280
