There’s a reason we had to put in a knob to turn off g.722 when it was 
introduced (“too much bass”).

Personally I think users have a hard time getting used to hearing someone like 
they are in the room with you on an audio only call. With a video call it’s 
much easier to accept the higher fidelity audio. It’s like getting my family to 
prefer FaceTime audio over a cell phone call, they just won’t do it.

Speaking of wideband audio, recently had a conversation with a customer after 
we upgraded them from UCM 7 to 10.5, they were complaining that they were 
getting a lost more "noise" on t he line.  Turns out that the wideband audio 
was just allowing a lot more background noise from the factory in the 
background.

They still haven't decided if they are going to downgrade the codec or find 
another solution...

In my experience the bluetooth headset profile supported by our phones (except 
maybe the 8865 with BE4.1) sounds awful, like barely above cell phone quality. 
If you are used to wideband audio then it’s unusable. If your users haven’t 
been exposed to the awesomeness that is wideband audio then they probably won’t 
notice a difference.

Personally I have a model of the Plantronics Savi 700 series that can do 
bluetooth, usb, or wired rj11. I use it via usb to a DX70 99% of the time but 
like the adaptability of being able to test it with almost all of our phone 
models. TAC is probably a bit unique in that requirement though.

I don’t have one but the Jabra Evolve headsets look pretty awesome.

Whatever you end up with be sure to check the vendor’s compatibility guide for 
the specific phone you have (or will have). Cisco doesn’t test or certify 
headsets with our phones, the vendors do that.

Hey Brian!

I have mine at the home office on an 8945(9.2.3) / CUBE / CME10 and it sounds 
crystal (g711). My pairing is between the 8945 and an iPad mini currently. 
Phone rings, off-hook pauses music stream on the mini, music resumes on-hook. 
Works really well for me. Mine sounds great on the PC also. I will say when I 
roam more than 15 or so feet I sometimes get small mic delay and when the 
battery is low, other than that it is great for me.

I am no Bluetooth expert but I think half the equation is in the Bluetooth 
profile of the device you're paring with (not sure how that applies with a 9971 
though, that should just work, and work great). My only thoughts on the 9971 
might be to try and swap firmware? Got any interferes nearby; microwaves, AC 
Units, space heaters ... etc?

I've got one of these but wasn't able to get the multiple pairing working 
right.  Any tips?

Also, it sounds pretty bad with my 9971.  Sounds fine with my PC though.

I use a Jabra Evolve 65 (Bluetooth); multiple simultaneous paring, retractable 
mic, 3-button multi-touch operation and built in annunciation (not just 
ambiguous beeping). USB charging also doubles as cabled headset for things like 
laptops, PS4. It would be a hard day for me without it.

Obviously, requires Bluetooth, but meets a reasonable definition of wireless ;)

Thanks,

Does anyone have recommendations for a quality wireless headset? Been using 
CS540 Plantronics for a while but they do not seem to last well at all and 
frequently fail. Using mostly 7965s so Bluetooth to the phone is not really an 
option yet.

Thanks!
