There is a known problem with stereo bluetooth on Macs, which is supposed to be fixed in the next OS release.

Experts, I have a Plantronics Pulsar 590A headset and I was very excited about using it for many things including voice recognition software for my laptop. I tend to pace when I am thinking and I thought that the BT option would be great. All the adverts seems to suggest that this was the product to get and the sound quality playback is superb when in audio only mode. Sadly when you swich to headset protocol to activate the Mic the quality goes south to the point where the voice recognition does not work very well. Also playback from recordings is very poor. Does anyone know what I can do to try and improve the quality of the headset over BT?

Improving Headset quality over Bluetooth

Wireless networking is anything related to the transfer of data between two (or more) devices without the use of a physical connection, ranging from getting advice on a new Bluetooth headset to configuring sophisticated enterprise level networks.

Wireless Networking

Hardware includes cell phones and other digital living devices, tablets, computers, servers, peripherals and components, printers and scanners, gaming consoles, networking hardware such as routers, hubs, switches and modems, storage devices and security equipment such as firewalls and other appliances.

Hardware

Voice or speech recognition includes methodologies and technologies that enable the recognition and translation of spoken language into text by computers and computerized devices. It is also known as "automatic speech recognition" (ASR), "computer speech recognition", or just "speech to text" (STT). Voice recognition applications include voice user interfaces such as voice dialling (e.g. "Call home"), call routing (e.g. "I would like to make a collect call"), appliance control, search, simple data entry, preparation of structured documents, speech-to-text processing, and aircraft (usually termed Direct Voice Input).
