Review:
First thing i did when i get the headset is get rid of the whole plastic box, and fold the headset into the carrying pouch, besides fitting perfectly in the carrying pouch, the pouch is hard-case pouch, prevent breakage and ease to store in luggage or travel. it wont break =D

2nd thing i did was to pair it with my tube, and lappy at the same time, with the A2DP technology it pair both of them at the same time perfectly, now i can use my lappy to listen music, and when my phone rings i can straight pick up from my headset. moreover with my big head, the neckband fits my head perfectly and rest comfortably for 4 - 5hours, perfect for long duration of wearing without feeling pain on ur ears.

now i'm going into detail of the sound quality for the stereo bluetooth, first of all, as expected the sound quality cant compare to a proper wired headset since it's wireless, and also some delay for my lappy gaming session(tested with Call of Duty 4, the footstep's sound got minor delay). but for music i dont really mind bout the minor delay it dint affect much. it's very bassy meaning good for techno, rnb, rap, also good treble meaning for classical, instrumental, opera etc... however.. due to lack in crisp, and punch in bass and treble, when i listen to rock/trance music, it's not exactly up to my expectation, but for a bluetooth headset with the sound quality i get, it's more than good... it's better than normal stereo headset, and it's priced between 230 - 300 so i consider it to be very reasonable...

For lappy wise, personally i do not think that the sound quality projected is not as good compare to my 5800xm, 5800xm projected better sound quality to my bluetooth headset, despite of the EQ settings

SRS Wow technology is another plus for that headset, and this function can be switch on and off, with this function set to off i listen to music like i'm with a normal headset, however when i switch on this function(default is On), the sound effect get boosted like 200% and i'm like WOW! XD that's bout the technology.

I would conclude my experience on this headset, value vs quality: Highly Recommended to get 1 for your tube.
