Reviews
"The call quality for the MOTOROKR S9 HD was excellent. It does offer some echo and noise cancellation. I could be heard perfectly well in a normal, interior setting, still fairly well in the outdoors... The headset will pause the music as a call comes in and will resume afterwards. Now, I bet you're wondering about the SRS WOW HD audio mode I mentioned earlier. It's a mash up of various audio solutions and technologies working together to recreate audio the way it's supposed to be heard - naturally. Here are some of the highlights:
3D Audio - Restoring the bigger, fuller sound we experience in everyday life. Close your eyes and make note of not only what you are hearing but where the sound is coming from. In a nutshell, these are called "spatial cues".
Bass but not bass - Hunh? Look at the size of those earbuds, there's no way that you could get the true "boom boom" out of those things! SRS labs found a magical way around this. With their "psychoacoustic understanding and technical know-how", they were able to simulate that deep bass feel by boosting overtones. Your mind, in its mysterious ways, fills in the missing information. You essentially hear what isn't there.
Clarity - By enhancing high frequency content, clear audio enjoyment is restored. You experience a true, full bodied sound without missing the small details.
My music sounded absolutely amazing with the MOTOROKR S9-HD. The other stereo headsets couldn't even touch the audio pumping into my ears. It was real, it was true, it was enjoyable."
"The music playback had the best audio quality via the S9-HD with clear audio in all channels and powerful bass. The audio was also very balanced and sounded good in playing different styles of music. The only slight problem we found on the Moto S9-HD was that the bass favors the right side earpiece in quite a few tracks produced by different artists. Using a phone’s EQ settings could fix the problem on some phones. ... Motorola made some good improvements on the S9-HD over the last generation S9 Bluetooth stereo headset, making it a good contender against other high-end Bluetooth headsets in terms of audio quality. The active, in-ear design makes it a natural for those who are on the go or want a discreet listening experience. The S9-HD has good audio quality, eliminates background white noise, plays well with a large variety of phones and the Bluetooth adapter is a big plus for those who wish to consolidate their stereo headsets for phone and iPod..."
"When listening to music, the Motorola S9-HD excels at producing high-quality music. The S9-HD features SRS WOW HD audio technology, which allows you to enjoy a digitally enhanced audio experience, with more full bass and better overall quality. You can enable/disable SRS WOW HD by pressing and holding the forward button, and there is a noticeable difference in quality. I enjoyed having the option, as well, since some music is better with enhanced bass, while others sounded better with SRS WOW HD disabled. I was also very pleased with the volume of the Motorola S9-HD, as well as the ability to keep music 'in', and background noise 'out'.
Unfortunately, while the Motorola S9-HD excels at music, it is an entirely different experience when attempting to chat with someone over the phone. Even indoors, callers reported a muffled sound, and there was often static on my end, even with perfect reception and using several different mobile phones. I tested the Motorola S9-HD inside a busy grocery store, and both callers simply asked me to call them back later. Similarly, the Motorola S9-HD failed the truck tests miserably, even with the windows rolled up. When using the headset for voice calls in an open area with wind, I was not able to understand the caller, and they were not able to understand anything I said, either."
