[Q] Why people prefer wired headphones vs. Stereo Bluetooth?

[BuddyLee]

I use the mw600 with the short jhook cord of the hpm 77.

Works perfectly, the default cord of the mw600 is way too long.

well from a smart guess. you would think
wired headphones/earphones are relying on the battery of the fone to drive the speakers.
however a bluetooth headset (stereo or mono) would use its own power source to power the speakers, generally speaking you would use less battery power for BT hp's since there is no moving parts powered by the fone = less battery strain. moving parts always drain lots of power, or actuators, (transducers) in this case if you want to be specific.

however. this is where i put it to the community. why would BT hp's drain more power than wired. do u have the onboard sound's disabled. so you fone is no longer making 2x sound? eg. calls still ring on fone. or txt or media etc.

also is RIL responsible for the way it controls BT+Wireless+cell etc?

is there any known benefits by changing RIL to decrease the draw of using BT.

so i would imagine ultimately BT self powered headphones would be better than wired.

Prove me wrong please

You are totally neglecting the fact that Bluetooth uses power. And a lot of power. So you would massively reduce battery if you used Bluetooth. Headphones are rated for per 100db power usage. Generally headphones use 2mah. Which is super low. A single small led uses more.

So you entire page of "smart guessing" is wrong .

Bluetooth headsets are also much lower quality. It is possible to buy some made for high quality music but they are very expensive and use a lot of power, and wired are still better.

If you are going to buy a pair of headphones that would actually benefit from using an amp to boost them (like studio headphones or whatever, the expensive high end stuff) then they are going to sound really bad wired straight into the phone. You can buy an amp for 50 bucks on Amazon and then have much, much better quality than the headphones without the amp, or cheaper ones that don't need it, or Bluetooth.

This, not only are you using a considerable amount of power turning the bluetooth radio on, you are also decreasing audio quality by going with a bluetooth headset over wired for listening to music.

Since our phones are Galaxy S phones, we lose access to Voodoo control as well.

Personally for me I use a Samsung HM3500.
