hi all,
New poster, old lurker here
Has anyone used this for phone calls? I know that's not the primary selling point of these, but mine seem to work horribly for this over bluetooth and I'm wondering if I got a bad pair or what.
They sound perfect with music both wired and over BT, but the mic seems almost non-functional. Just to rule out the phone call connection itself, I paired with my iPhone (and with my computer) and tried making a basic voice memo recording -- in both cases it was super tinny and full of dropouts in sound. I know BT can be flaky, but this was over the top bad.
I don't know how or if this is relevant, but after one such test with my Mac, I decided to listen to some music instead (over BT) and at first the sound of the music in the Grados was super tinny and terrible -- after a bit I think it switched BT profiles or something and the full, real sound of the music came in.
I find closed-back headsets are kind of weird and muffled to talk through on phone calls, so I was I was looking forward to the Grados doing double-duty on that front but disappointed to find it's not really possible.
