Plantronics Voyager 855: mono or stereo Bluetooth headset, your choice

Plantronicsvoyager855I’ve always been a fan of the Plantronics headset line. In fact for the past three years, I’ve been recording podcasts with one of their DSP ‘sets and I believe that’s one reason the sound quality of the show is high. Today, Plantronics introduced their Voyager 855 Bluetooth headset for voice and music at an MSRP of $149.99. What’s unique about this headset is that you can use just one earpiece for mono voice conversation or use the detachable cable to add a second earpiece and stereo support. The 855 supports the A2DP profile so you can seamlessly switch from stereo music listening back to mono voice as needed. If you only want the mono capabilities, the Voyager 815 will save you $20 by not including the stereo cable.

The earpieces are sound isolating and Plantronics rates the battery life at 6-hours talk time, 160 hours of standby. Watch for both the 855 and 815 at retailers in October.
