Sound ID Announces the Sound ID 400 Bluetooth Headset

Jack Cook — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 16:31:19 +0000

BRINGING NEW FUNCTIONALITY TO THE BLUETOOTH CATEGORY

Sound ID will be offering a NEW bluetooth headset that will have PersonalSound custom hearing modes to boost your listening power and Environmental Mode to amplify sound between calls. In addition, it will be compatible with the new Sound ID CompanionLink Remote Microphone.

There are three unique features worth noting:
1)    PersonalSound, which consists of three listening modes tuned to the most common hearing preferences to further enhance speech clarity without raising the volume. This feature is only found on Sound ID products – no other Bluetooth headsets offer this capability.
2)    The Sound ID 400 is the only headset to deliver Environmental Mode, a feature that enables users to hear equally out of both ears in-between calls. When the Environmental Mode is activated, the hearing ability is enhanced and soft sounds can be heard while wearing the headset – allowing clear conversations “On” and “Off” the phone.
3)    Additionally, the headset is the only one of its kind to be compatible with the optional Sound ID CompanionLink Remote Microphone – creating a Personal Sound System. The CompanionLink is a small clip-on device, a mere two-inches in size, that syncs with the Sound ID 400 and can be worn by a conversation partner or placed near a sound source to pick up audio at its origin for a richer sound experience. This device can greatly enhance the clarity of speech in many communication situations, such as: (1) a distant talker, e.g. a lecturer; (2) a very noisy environment, e.g. a restaurant; or, (3) a talker whose speech is received as faint due to his or her physical location with respect to the listener, e.g. a passenger sitting in the back of the car.

The Sound ID 400 also offers NoiseNavigation, which uses multiple microphones and special DSP algorithms to remove background noise and elevate speech. The goal is to improve speech understanding in noisy situations. Finally, Sound ID 400 can connect with two devices simultaneously – enabling users to answer calls from two phones from the convenience of one headset. It is designed with a Black Velvet soft-touch finish.

There may be a solution out there with the recently announced Plantronics Voyager Pro.

It is not just a headset, it is EarWear!

Jack Cook — Sat, 24 May 2008 14:38:14 +0000

There is a NEW Jawbone that has been released by Aliph and Steve “fyiguy” Hughes has had the chance to test it out and write a nice review that is worth reading. At CES this year, there were no new announcements but they did say that there was a new innovative design with even better sound cancellation than the first version coming soon. Well, “soon” is here and it looks to be a pretty good revision of the original. It is smaller, looks good and works great. In part, fyiguy said:

I was always hoping for a smaller version of the Jawbone and got just that. I really despised the loop on the Jawbone and hated the fact that it wasn’t easy to put on. The newer version is 50% smaller and lighter with an Earloop that goes on easily. Better yet I found that I don’t really need to use it at all since the fit is so good. The other version I had broke a few of the Earloops due to the fact of getting caught on things in my pocket or my pocket liner. I do wish that they included a carrying case with this headset, but my makeshift version works fine. If you are looking for a new Bluetooth headset that has great sound quality and is comfortable to wear I highly recommend the New Jawbone. It is not just a headset, it is EarWear.
