@cengland0 i'll wait patiently for a restock on today's product as it says it's sold out. But come on under 1000 units on a wireless headset? Well I have seen that before. But still...
@sohmageek Do you know of any other retailer that would have close to 659 of these in stock at any given time? That represents $24,000 worth of inventory which is a lot of money for one SKU.
@sohmageek And yet, there was only a single other comment for the first 5 minutes. While it at least refreshed fine for me. 'Just thought it odd that the forum refreshed fine, no comments, and it responded fine to my first attempt to comment. How often is the first 5 minutes almost silent?
@ilovereality If it helps, the last wireless headset I got was $120 for an around the neck style non-bluetooth version. And last year the cheapest most basic wireless headset i could find locally was more than $75 (my budget at the time). So I got two. :-D
@bdp No, it doesn't auto cancel. You have to do that yourself. I wonder what would happen if your card expired though. It might auto cancel in that situation.
Wireless headphones are great for offices. I can get up and walk wherever I want without the hassle of people walking up to me and starting conversations. I just slip on a similar pair of headphones like these and stroll the building all day. It sounds stupid but it works great, I was fired three weeks ago and no one has gotten security to escort me out yet.
@densa FYI, those are not the same headphones. Those are for wired ones that are currently selling on Amazon for $19.95. The one selling on Meh isthe Duo version.
Think there is a problem with the map. All sales are showing in Texas. I bought a couple and I am not in TX and my state is not represented on the map.
@mike808 I remember that fleck stone paint, but man would that hurt my ears. So Mike, your username implies you are the most knowledgable person on the subject, would you recommend these?
debating it but I have an aukey if I want to listen wireless to one of the many headphones I have already. Think I'll let all the people in texas have em
@vrillusions I use the Motorola T505, and I love it, but I think it's the same idea only pricier, so you win this round. What about outside of the car?
Bought a couple headsets on last twofer tuesday have no clue why im buying these except that they seem to be at a 60% discount from amazon and going for 90ish on ebay .I cant turn down a bargin lately ..anyway ty meh
I do need a new pair of headphones. I'm generally leery of Bluetooth for good quality audio, but I can see the convenience when mobile, so I like the versatility. Apart from audio quality, though, is the comfort factor for extended wear. I do prefer over the ear, so that's a plus. I suppose at this price if they're not so comfortable I could resell on eBay for at least close to what I paid. Anyone know if the audio quality is as good as the write-up is claiming?
These appear to be $54 at Amazon rather than $80 as long as you select gloss black rather than matte black. Still $13 cheaper here (with $5 shipping), but not as big a discount as it first appears, unless I'm missing something.
I dutifully rolled over at midnight, was stymied by the delayed page, saw the 'phones and ordered it immediately knowing this was a great deal. I even got a great order #: baleful-uneasy-zombie
Then, in the few minutes I had before sleep resumed, I thought -- great deal! I totally don't need these at all. I rolled back over and canceled that order.
@eulestadt In your opinion, what makes the M06 better than the 808 Duo? Can you give hard facts to back up the claims like frequency responses, THD, Bluetooth strength, protocol supports, etc?
@cengland0 Just from personal experience. My M06's were leagues better than the 808 wired headphones I got on the last sale... I'm no audiophile so compare Amazon reviews if you really need some legitimate views.
@eulestadt Reviews don't help unless the same person reviewed both. Also, after reading some reviews and them getting 1-star ratings because Amazon didn't ship it fast enough doesn't give me confidence that regular customers know how to review a product. I would like to see facts such as those I stated above so I can see that the M06 is better, otherwise, you're just another person with an opinion.
Another pair of Bluetooth headphones I bought from meh that won't work with Windows 7. However, purchasing this one has finally opened up the clues on why it won't work. Windows 7 needs the A2DP Bluetooth profile in order to work, but Microsoft refuses to support it officially, so tracking down a driver is damn near impossible.
It's sad when a technology like "Bluetooth" is suppose to unite things together, Microsoft has a way of flipping it the bird.
@Wamzlee So, I've done some searching, and it appears your computer's Bluetooth hardware (either built-in or a Bluetooth USB dongle) should handle it with the latest drivers. If you tell me your computer model, I'll try to track it down for you.
@Wamzlee So, it appears that Bootcamp should take care of it, but since it appears not to have (you're running the latest Bootcamp I'm guessing?), here's a link to Broadcom's download page: http://www.broadcom.com/support/?gid=2 Choose Bluetooth, then WIDCOMM Bluetooth software. As far as I can tell, Broadcom is doing the Bluetooth for iMac 2014, so this should work.
@dashcloud Hey, I'm trying to make the headphones' Bluetooth work with my Windows 7 laptop too, and I have no idea how. If you can find a driver for me, I'd really appreciate it! My computer is a Dell Inspiron 17R SE.
@xxbritaxx So, after some poking around, your laptop could have 1 of 3 different vendors for Bluetooth: Dell-branded Atheros, Dell-branded Broadcom, or Intel. Easiest way to find out is to go here: http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/product-support/product/INSPIRON-17R-SE-7720/drivers , click on Service Tag, enter the information, and then download the latest Bluetooth driver. If that doesn't work, tell me which Wireless/Bluetooth card is in the machine.
@dashcloud Thanks for your reply! My laptop's Bluetooth is Intel. It said I already had the latest driver for it, and I just updated BIOS in case that would have some effect (which it didn't...and I don't entirely know what BIOS is, but that was the only update Dell had for me). I think maybe my laptop's Bluetooth thing is just broken, maybe? When I click on the headphones in the Devices and Printers screen, I just get an error message that "Intel Bluetooth Service View has stopped working", The same thing happens when I click on my tablet, which I once tried pairing with my laptop too, but I didn't have any pressing need to have them paired so I quickly gave up on that when it started giving me trouble. But I really would like to pair the headphones!
@dashcloud Thanks for helping everyone with this issue. Can you help me, too? I have Windows 10 on an HP Envy 700 series. Can’t seem to get it to pair to my PC. THANKS!
Got mine today. They wont hold a charge. More broken audio equipment from Meh. Trying different USB ports and whatnot, but I think I'm out $38 on this one. :-(
@marklog I will be doing that. However, just like the last two times I received broken product, I'll get a reply that I need to contact the manufacturer with my sales info, then I will go round and round with the manufacturer for weeks while they claim that it's Meh's fault, then my fault, then Santa Claus's fault before accepting responsibility only to tell me that I need to send the product, and a prepaid return label for them to send back a maybe working replacement in 6-8 weeks while my cost has doubled or more. And let me be clear, I love Meh. I buy a lot of stuff from these guys. I don't think I'll be getting any electronics from now on though.
@jhdockett@marklog I contacted meh. They directed me to Shine electronics. I'm not going to play the hot potato game with a return to a 3rd party either. Very disappointed too, I was looking forward to these.
FWIW, mine are working great. My first BT headphones. They're a little less comfortable than the corded 808s we got real cheap a while ago, but the sound is good and it's kind of amazing not having to deal with that damned cable. Perfect for my commute, for certain chores at home and for when I need to straighten up around the desk at work--and when a cord would inevitably be all up in my business. :-)
hello mehers... just got mine.....charge light never indicates full charge. never changes from red to blue. I think i see why these were so cheap. Not right to unload iffy merchandise on us. lets see how meh handles this!!!
@painkiller1 I get nothing when they're plugged in and I switch the power switch from off to on, either. Just a red light that never goes away and silent headphones. You?
@jhdockett Same here. I contacted the company that meh said is handling after purchase support. Theya re requiring me to ship back on my dime. They will replace or repair. Totally not worth the time. I guess I eat this purchase. I'm not going to play the game with Shine Electronics.
@outz I have about a bazillion of those around the house and would be happy to give you one if you live in my local area and want to pick it up (Florida). Too lazy to ship.
@thismyusername It's their customer to lose. Took a chance with a company I hadn't heard of before. The headset is nice, but not buy-a-new-pair-every-8-months nice.

Doesn't come in purple. Meh.
@tslard mine came in lilac...
@tslard I love purple.
Wow. 5 minutes of almost silence.
@RedOak is it just me or are others having issues buying? It's going very very slow. Like fuku slow... @JonT
@RedOak I know. I had a hard time connecting so I thought maybe a FUKU/FUKO was being offered.
@sohmageek but I didn't have any issues posting 2 comments.
@RedOak - Slow for me, @narfcake.
@RedOak I've noticed multiple times that it seems like the forums are unaffected by the main page's issues.
@cengland0 i'll wait patiently for a restock on today's product as it says it's sold out. But come on under 1000 units on a wireless headset? Well I have seen that before. But still...
@sohmageek Do you know of any other retailer that would have close to 659 of these in stock at any given time? That represents $24,000 worth of inventory which is a lot of money for one SKU.
@cengland0 nope. I'm mostly just pissed at myself for only ordering one.

Hello...my name is densa and I have a Headphone Addiction.
neutral-longer-cheddar
@densa I feel ya.. predictable-audible-experience
@densa you have come to the right place, be amongst those who can share your desperation and repeated disappointment.
Headphone Addicts Anonymous = HAA !
@mehdaf mmmm...cheddar!
@mehdaf OMG, I am such a cheeseaholic. I could probably finish off one of those cheese wheels all by myself.
hello @densa, my name is animated-emotional-nation and I am here with you
@mehdaf Say Cheese
The 8 buck wired-only 808's were OK for the price, but are we sure these actually come with the carrying case this time?
@RedOak I'm as sure they will come with a carrying case as I am sure the 1080p Midland camera will come with a 3M sticky mount.
@cengland0 I ended up buying a suction cup mount that costs as much as the camera did. Recently survived the expressway for an hour outside of my car.
I'm on the fence...... 12 hours battery life. I don't have BT headphones...... Likely will talk myself out of these but I can see them selling out,
@ilovereality 12hrs is about normal. I have a pair of new Sony's that last about 14
@ilovereality If it helps, the last wireless headset I got was $120 for an around the neck style non-bluetooth version. And last year the cheapest most basic wireless headset i could find locally was more than $75 (my budget at the time). So I got two. :-D
@one_two3456 why not 3456?
@mehdaf :-) You remember the "map glitch" last night right? Yeah... I canceled 3454 of my orders just to give others a chance (and ..physics).
Meh, the last few nights have both confused and astonished me. Just like a lilac-pickled-dress
@mehdaf Nice!
@Barney I thought you would like that, how do you feel about elephants?
@mehdaf Um... some of my best friends are elephants.
@mehdaf All I know is anything not specifically pertaining to elephants is irrelephant.
@nadroj LOL Nice try, but wrong Barney.
@Barney So how do you feel about your namesake character? Is it like Michael Bolton hating Michael Bolton, or more of a grudging acceptance?
@dashcloud I've only been Barney for a little over 7 years, so the other Barney has seniority. However, I'm better looking.
@Barney Did your mom like livestream gift?
@dashcloud She hasn't received it yet. JonT only sent it out on Friday. But bless his heart, he sent it without me having to nag him. Atta boy, @JonT!
Bought...and renewed my vmp?
No idea meh canceled it, thanks I guess? Does that happen if I go a month without a buy?
The beats I never opened going to eBay in 3...2....
@bdp No, it doesn't auto cancel. You have to do that yourself. I wonder what would happen if your card expired though. It might auto cancel in that situation.
how many Meh's can a meh meh meh if a meh could meh meh meh. Yawn.
@mothmer meh spelled backwards is hem
@somf69 Finally, a post that I can relate to! Well played sir!
I got the other 808 headphones and love them, but I had always wished they were wireless. Thanks, meh!
Wireless headphones are great for offices. I can get up and walk wherever I want without the hassle of people walking up to me and starting conversations. I just slip on a similar pair of headphones like these and stroll the building all day. It sounds stupid but it works great, I was fired three weeks ago and no one has gotten security to escort me out yet.
@KevinTJ Can I borrow your stapler?
Fool me once (toccs) shame on you. Fool me twice (jlabs) shame on me.
@jseay65 haha this was the good one :-p
Could definitely do with two pairs. jiggly mushy cough, apparently.
@armchair those are fake, they are from Fox News
@somf69 I think it just means they are fair and balanced even though she leans to the right.
@somf69 but they're fair and balanced though
@mehdaf gah you just beat me. But don't know by how much. Damn you meh and your minute precision.
@vrillusions it just means you are in good company right? I still laughed at it anyway...
@somf69 I think you meant Faux News.
@armchair
. cumbersome-gory-lizard
@somf69 I can't watch that channel, not even for a bet.
Here's a good review on these headphones:
http://www.laptopmag.com/reviews/accessories/808-studio-headphones
@densa FYI, those are not the same headphones. Those are for wired ones that are currently selling on Amazon for $19.95. The one selling on Meh isthe Duo version.
I guess the war in Texas is over, because these are selling like hotcakes there
Haven't listened to music with headphones in ages, so I'm out.
@Stallion May I point you to 5/05: https://meh.com/deals/2-for-tuesday--able-planet-stereo-headphones-with-linx-audio
@one_two3456 You may, lol. I do have a set of BT headphones, but I use them for phone calls, not music.

Think there is a problem with the map. All sales are showing in Texas. I bought a couple and I am not in TX and my state is not represented on the map.
@cengland0 I think something is broken (from Illinois and purchased)
@cengland0 @rileyper @hammi99 the map updates generally tend to lag.
@rileyper @cengland0 ditto, purchased 2 and from NY
@cengland0
You're moving there, hasn't anyone told you yet?
Sounds like that's where your headphones are shipping, so you might as well...
@rileyper We will probably get an OH SHIRT! report tomorrow. (I auto-corrected it because I don't swear)
@cengland0 even better, click on Texas to zoom
@RedOak I do not recall seeing a 20+ minute lag on any other day.
@cengland0 looks like the war is over!
@cengland0 I would love another shirt! Secret handshake "M" in grey or cracked beaker in green please!!!
@somf69 Yup, fixed
@cengland0 It looks like we're all Texans tonight.
@densa I live in the state of confusion and I still don't see that on the map.

Disturbing the police
Can you order these in fake granite rock color?
@mehdaf yes, if you order a can of fake granite rock spray paint with it. Point, spray, dry, presto!
@mike808 I remember that fleck stone paint, but man would that hurt my ears. So Mike, your username implies you are the most knowledgable person on the subject, would you recommend these?
@mehdaf you remove and tape off the earpads and other soft areas you don't want to paint. Connect with your inner Make:DIYer, dude.
I already have 2 pairs from the earlier woo^Wmeh deal. (insert TR-808 rim shot here).
Wish they had the mic like these do, but then it ruins the whole 'wireless' thing.
Not a bad price for bluetooth. Got a pair for the office.
debating it but I have an aukey if I want to listen wireless to one of the many headphones I have already. Think I'll let all the people in texas have em
@vrillusions I use the Motorola T505, and I love it, but I think it's the same idea only pricier, so you win this round. What about outside of the car?
Bought a couple headsets on last twofer tuesday have no clue why im buying these except that they seem to be at a 60% discount from amazon and going for 90ish on ebay .I cant turn down a bargin lately ..anyway ty meh
haha, you got me; my first meh purchase.
Eww, mini USB. Still in for one.
Sweet. I've been thinking about getting some wireless headphones. Now I can stop thinking.
Already have plastic creaky Denons, sound great but don't move or creak!! You got me with Bluetooth, sigh.
BATH!
I do need a new pair of headphones. I'm generally leery of Bluetooth for good quality audio, but I can see the convenience when mobile, so I like the versatility. Apart from audio quality, though, is the comfort factor for extended wear. I do prefer over the ear, so that's a plus. I suppose at this price if they're not so comfortable I could resell on eBay for at least close to what I paid. Anyone know if the audio quality is as good as the write-up is claiming?
This review seems promising and favorable for the sound quality (if not the build quality): http://www.askaudiomag.com/articles/review-808-duo-bluetooth-headphones
Anyone heard of this review site? Are they legit?
meh. get some Grados instead.
Can these pair with a Roku through bluetooth?
This might be a dumb question but does it need to be charged to play music using the 3.5 mm cable?
@elpepe it does not. The battery is only for bluetooth.
headphones again, meh? I know this is'nt the right forum but what a sad ass mother's day.
These appear to be $54 at Amazon rather than $80 as long as you select gloss black rather than matte black. Still $13 cheaper here (with $5 shipping), but not as big a discount as it first appears, unless I'm missing something.
@maurile That's not the DUO.
@xarous Ah, so I was missing something. Thanks.
I dutifully rolled over at midnight, was stymied by the delayed page, saw the 'phones and ordered it immediately knowing this was a great deal. I even got a great order #: baleful-uneasy-zombie

To whomever got my set -- your welcome.
Darn you Left Coasters! Sold out for us East Coasters! Now I can't play "Meh Roulette", aka "headphones or webcam?", when the box arrives.
For all of y'all that this sold out for, the Ausdom M06's are just as good... and should I daresay better, than the 808 DUOs:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00UA9XYLI

@eulestadt In your opinion, what makes the M06 better than the 808 Duo? Can you give hard facts to back up the claims like frequency responses, THD, Bluetooth strength, protocol supports, etc?

@dashcloud I appreciate your help. But unfortunately, I've tried that driver and still doesn't do anything. I just get keep getting the same error. :(
@dashcloud Hey, I'm trying to make the headphones' Bluetooth work with my Windows 7 laptop too, and I have no idea how. If you can find a driver for me, I'd really appreciate it! My computer is a Dell Inspiron 17R SE.

@xxbritaxx Any chance you're still under warranty and can have Dell take a look at it? Here's the Dell Bluetooth tester page: http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/Home/Index/BluetoothPort Last thing, you could try installing the drivers from Intel's site: http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/highlights/wireless/cwn-2230 (If you do this, you'll probably want to uninstall the existing driver & software first).
@dashcloud Thanks for helping everyone with this issue. Can you help me, too? I have Windows 10 on an HP Envy 700 series. Can’t seem to get it to pair to my PC. THANKS!
Got mine today. They wont hold a charge. More broken audio equipment from Meh. Trying different USB ports and whatnot, but I think I'm out $38 on this one. :-(
@jhdockett if it's broken, email halp@meh.com instead of whining. It's far more productive.
@marklog I will be doing that. However, just like the last two times I received broken product, I'll get a reply that I need to contact the manufacturer with my sales info, then I will go round and round with the manufacturer for weeks while they claim that it's Meh's fault, then my fault, then Santa Claus's fault before accepting responsibility only to tell me that I need to send the product, and a prepaid return label for them to send back a maybe working replacement in 6-8 weeks while my cost has doubled or more. And let me be clear, I love Meh. I buy a lot of stuff from these guys. I don't think I'll be getting any electronics from now on though.

hello mehers... just got mine.....charge light never indicates full charge. never changes from red to blue. I think i see why these were so cheap. Not right to unload iffy merchandise on us. lets see how meh handles this!!!
@painkiller1 I get nothing when they're plugged in and I switch the power switch from off to on, either. Just a red light that never goes away and silent headphones. You?
@jhdockett Same here. I contacted the company that meh said is handling after purchase support. Theya re requiring me to ship back on my dime. They will replace or repair. Totally not worth the time. I guess I eat this purchase. I'm not going to play the game with Shine Electronics.
mine was missing the 1"x Mini USB to USB charging cable" I'll have to dig around to see if I have a mini USB cable in a box somewhere.
meh, if you do quality control checks for anyone, please do it for me.
@outz I have about a bazillion of those around the house and would be happy to give you one if you live in my local area and want to pick it up (Florida). Too lazy to ship.
@cengland0 thanks for the offer. i'm sure we have one laying around at work.
i am fed up. have emailed the company as per meh......no response after 3 emails. need help meh!!!
Power switch just gave up the ghost. Very meh.
Left side speaker went out after 8 months of usage. Awaiting response from company.
@youdonotexist I hate to be the bearer of bad news....
here is hoping they go above and beyond :)
@thismyusername It's their customer to lose. Took a chance with a company I hadn't heard of before. The headset is nice, but not buy-a-new-pair-every-8-months nice.
@youdonotexist My left side speaker just died too
Did you have any luck?
