Just got a listen on this MM450 thing Sennheiser is doing and thought I would just give you guys the spec's on this cool new thing:
Its a bluetooth enabled headset with their Noiseguard and TalkThought which enables you to hear other people at the push of a button without taking them off. Bluetooth is both for use as a normal mobile headset and as a stereo bluetooth/A2DP device.
Apparently it got building in amplification which really makes it
when you turn it on. Also helps that you always can adjust volume if the source is to low. It uses replaceable proprietary batteries with USB charging.
All features works both wireless and with wired connection - yes it has both. Well you can't use both at the same time as it automatically disable the bluetooth chip when a normal plug is insert.
I'm not gonna give you any review as I feel I'm to biased with this due to personal and industry relations but the word is that Apple was very pleased with its stereo bluetooth performance on a earlier prototype with despite it has worse sound and as some may know Apple don't employ or like stereo bluetooth.
I'm told its a combination of putting enough money/quality stuff, the amplification and proprietary sennheiser drivers that for the first time actually makes standard bluetooth stereo worth listing too. Its still the same lossy codec and bit due to compatibility of course. Also these don't come cheap ether - its suppose to be their high-end business/traveling noise guard product.
BTW bluetooth SIG - the organization behind bluetooth confirm this in an email when asking about bluetooth 3.0 thats comming soon: "There are many new optional codecs in-progress for A2DP including the Lossloss codec. Look for the next A2DP
version supporting these to be released no later than July, 2009."
Can't wait for this to be embedded in next gen. PMP's and smartphones
