Tue, 06 Oct 2009 05:22:23 +0000 http://www.wirelessearbudsguide.com/?p=11#comment-7 [...] Bluetooth wireless earbuds are not quite what one might hope for them to be. It turns out that the wireless signal is simply not made to handle high fidelity. Bluetooth is the equivalent of taking a lossless digital recording, ripping it at 320 kbps, and replaying the recording in a way that does not use the full information found in the full 320 kbps data stream. Another issue is the loss of the signal due to interference of other devices or microwave transmissions. Neither of these problems come into play when you have a phone, a Bluetooth earbud and keep these two devices in close proximity to one another. The transmission of voices is not that tricky and you can usually keep a clear signal. Trying this with a more complex combination of sounds, like you find in a song, means minor transmission problems can be seemingly amplified.
