Im using the Sony Ericsson MW600 to stream audio from either laptops or a Motorola DC800 bluetooth transmitter connected to the receiver.
I have been using a Motorola S805 Bluetooth headset, but the sound was "flat" (sorry, no expert in sound) so i got the mw600 to stream audio with any standard 3.5mm headphone.
I have just picked up a Sony xb500, the bass sounds great over bluetooth compared to other bluetooth headsets i have. My complaint is that it can be too much of a good thing sometimes and the sound is muddled.The + point of the xb500 is that its extremely comfortable since i need big earbuds.
I have been looking at reviews of the SRH440 and the build quality seems to be much better than the xb500 that feels like cardboard. The common complaints of the 440 is flat sound.
So do anyone know how the 440 handles bass etc since i would be using it with bluetooth and not a receiver or amplifier?
The xb500 sounds "warm" but it can be too much and the construction feels flimsy. Since i cant test the SRH440 im afraid the sound would be flat when using bluetooth or no amplifier.
Has anyone compared the two or used the 440 with a portable device?
