I've received a my HBH-DS970 for Christmas today and did notice some 'breaks' when listening to audio etc. But as soon as I turned the 'Powersave' option under the Bluetooth settings on my K800i to on everything works seamlessly. Just making sure you folks have tried this before perhaps returning them?

I have also experienced the sound problems watching video and using the ds970 headset. I have recently updated to the latest firmware but the problem is still there.
One other thing that I noticed after the firmware upgrade is that the background noice (hissing sound) in normal voice calls using the headset is higher than I thought it was before. Has anyone else experienced that?
The firmware revision on the headset is CAH1090798 R2B and the Hardware revision (check the back of the headset) is R1A. I know there is a FW R2C release. I wonder if that would help?
Apart from these things I'm very happy with the headset. It works excellent with pure music.

Sound quality is great, though not as good as my old (and cheap) Sennheiser headphones.
I get the same issue while watching video though, and it's quite irritating. |

Hi, I posted in
http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=139708
but thought it was a better idea to continue here...
Got mine from Expansys yersterday. Royal Mail delivered as per their homepage info....
Charged it up for 8 hours then all was easy! Very pleased,,,
Sometimes though I get a crackle noise and the music skips... not sure why, but I will monitor it and see what happens.
I have a Sony VAIO with bluetooth. English model number is TX2HP but mine is the Japanese model.
I know how to pair bluetooth devices but is there other things I have to do, with Windows Media Player, to make the music transfer from the VAIO to the headset?
I did RTFM but the VAIO manual is very very brief... and only talks about pairing..

I currently have an S3XP vaio and the built in bluetooth doesn't support A2DP profile so I cannot stream music.
have you confirmed that the TX2 supports A2DP because I very much doubt it, unfortunately
btw, I'm sitting in the office now using my DS970 with my new (and now maxed out) W950. very happy

Hi masseur,
thanks for your quick reply!
" have you confirmed that the TX2 supports A2DP because I very much doubt it, unfortunately "
No, but I will do that now. Mine is a Japanese model and does have some extras. But need to check more...
I am not sure what I would expect to see. i.e a menu, in Media Player, or in Bluetooth preferences, that shows switch to bluetooth headset....
"btw, I'm sitting in the office now using my DS970 with my new (and now maxed out) W950. very happy "
In what way have you maxed your W950 out? I have full Japanese mail, web support, address book etc. Tube, Swiss Manager on.
Maybe this is the wrong thread to ask that question on !

I have 970's running on my W950 and have absolutely no issues with Audio at all. I have a full feature film, a series of 2 TV Shows and the audio and video on those runs flawlessly as well. I don't use M3 for conversion so can't comment on the program howeve I can say that my videos are streamedn at 320x240 15+ fps and 192 bit audio, so the quality is outsatnding, and as I say no issues whatsoever with the audio.

@seunlock-uk
have you paired with a pc or notebook and can successfully listen to music etc?
If so, can you give some pointers to what menus etc to access to achieve it ?
Any advice appreciated!

I have not paired it with a laptop or desktop for music playback as my computers do not support A2DP.
If you want to make it work the bluetooth from the computer side MUST SUPPORT A2DP.
Have my W950 playing through the Orange Desk Speaker System at the moment...OMFG I love it, so loud so good.

yeah, if you add a dongle that supports A2DP and switch off the vaio BT you'll be right. I've done that too!
I'm hoping my new vaio arriving in a couple of weeks supports A2DP but the spcs on the sonystyle site don't mention what profiles are supported unfortunately
