Guest phillyjaq Posted January 25, 2005 Report Posted January 25, 2005 Just got this today. Been playing with it for a little while and it's great!!! Works with my SMT 5600, the dongle is in my Dell DJ! Can switch back and forth between the two. Listen to music, answer the phone... Killer device!

Guest Disco Stu Posted January 27, 2005 Report Posted January 27, 2005 Cheers. looking forward to it :D
Guest TigerNet Posted January 27, 2005 Report Posted January 27, 2005 ...trouble with these is that they are too big and chunky...I've just gotten a set from iTech here http://www.itechdynamic.com/html/products.htm which work fine...yoou can even have them hard wired to your iPod and receive calls from your phone via bluetooth...
Guest TigerNet Posted January 27, 2005 Report Posted January 27, 2005 ...I picked up the iTech ones from an Orange shop (mighty surprised I was too!!!) for £49.99...ask for the bluetooth media player headset...the staff were not aware of it's existance even though it was on display in the glass case... Cheers Nick
Guest TigerNet Posted January 27, 2005 Report Posted January 27, 2005 ...then follow the instructions in this thread... http://www.modaco.com/index.php?showtopic=116898

Say, compared to using decent regular headphones?
Guest phillyjaq Posted January 29, 2005 Report Posted January 29, 2005 I think the most interesting question is: How is the sound quality (playing music)? Say, compared to using decent regular headphones? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I've been using mine for about a week now. Sound quality is good, both for the stereo and the phone. They are a bit large, but no worse then a good quality set of headphones. Bottom line, I like these alot. The batter life is great, sound quality is good. Functionality is excellent and simple. I think alot of the "chunk" is battery but it's worth it. These won't be going on ebay any time soon.
Guest elmas Posted January 29, 2005 Report Posted January 29, 2005 thanks phillyjaq, i might just give them a try. one more q: does using the bt headphones improve over the teeny sound the SMT5600 gives out over wired headphones?
Guest inspectorgadjet Posted January 31, 2005 Report Posted January 31, 2005 Mine have just arrived. I think they look great. I am so excited. Can't wait for them to charge up so I can test them out. 8)
Guest mobile-distortion Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 Can you pair the headphones to a SMT5600 via bluetooth without the dongle? Meaning JUST the headphones and phone....
Guest Dr Who Posted March 22, 2005 Report Posted March 22, 2005 ...I picked up the iTech ones from an Orange shop (mighty surprised I was too!!!) for £49.99...ask for the bluetooth media player headset...the staff were not aware of it's existance even though it was on display in the glass case... Cheers Nick <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Tigernet, have you got the iTech stereo clip headset or the media player headset? I am guessing the latter, which is available for £40 from the modaco shop. Worth it? I will use it for listening to choons while cycling about.
Guest TigerNet Posted March 22, 2005 Report Posted March 22, 2005 Correct, I have the media player headset...still waiting for the other one...they work fine... Cheers Nick
Guest mobile-distortion Posted March 22, 2005 Report Posted March 22, 2005 So, does this headset bind via BT to the phone or is it physically connected?
Guest mirpy1 Posted March 23, 2005 Report Posted March 23, 2005 via bluetooth is possible for music, i had some but i took them back for a refund as the quality was terrible for playing music.
Guest Raven Nephilim Posted June 22, 2005 Report Posted June 22, 2005 I've had the Bluetake iPhone headphones a week and was mighty disappointed with the sound quality in the beginning. I didnt want to use the dongle, cos its just more baggage to carry around, but the sound quality is remarkably better when using it. Anyway, while messing around with the dongle I had to use the 2.5mm adapter and noticed something really weird. If you leave the adapter in and remove the dongle and connect via bluetooth the sound is a thousand times better! I aint got a clue why and it might just be me, but anyone using the headphones and are a little disappointed with the sound quality, just try plugging in the adapter and see if that helps.
Guest scott2eyes Posted August 8, 2005 Report Posted August 8, 2005 I've had the Bluetake headphones since Christmas, and I've found them to be great. However, I also got an iPod mini and immediately stopped using media player on my C500, so apart from spending 5 minutes discovering that Media Player doesn't automatically play through them, I haven't actually used them with the C500 at all. Best use for wireless headphones- with a headphone splitter on public transport so that you and your girlfriend/friend/whoever you're with can listen to the same music/audiobook/comedy recording without being cabled together. (Note: the comedy choice can get you some odd looks if you're not sitting together, as you can look like two complete strangers laughing at something that nobody else can see...)
