I started this thread over 3 years ago and I now I need it again. I lost the bluetooth that I purchased during this time and I again need a replacement. As I get older, I find that I have a growing hatred for crappy products. Unfortunately, I am still a cheap bastard. With that being said, does anyone have a recommendation for a bluetooth headset for under $50 that doesn't make you sound like you are talking inside a metal box? One note: it must be A2DP.

when i was looking at bluetooth headsets, i decided the single wing/ear ones all sound like crap.

i got a stereo pair (they are not cheap $65), but they sound great and have a long battery life. I also listen to music through them while biking. The ones I have are Motorola SD7-HD (or something like that).

I had to revive this thread. I at least upped my price from $30 to $50 to reflect inflation, and the fact I'm not as cheap as I once was.

I'll second this. I have one that I've had for a number of years without any problems.

Thanks for the replies, but the Plantronics Voyager 510 does not appear to be A2DP.

I know that feeling. my favorite trackball is in the same boat: Logitech Trackman Marble+

Thanks again for all that replied. I got up this morning and found a Jawbone Era that met my requirements. Hopefully, this one won't arrive DOA like the last Jawbone I ordered.
