>never owned bluetooth headphones before >think i'd treat myself >get Bose QuietComfort 35 II (cost 475 USD where I live) >0.5 sec delay on sound effects in games Fuck, is there a way to fix this issue or is this how the future is supposed to be?
I'm on Windows 7 (64-bit).
Even the small delay on that "click" sound when you change between folder in Windows Explorer is driving me nuts. Sometimes there is no click and then three clicks come at once, making me suspect it cache the audio or something. Then it should be possible to disable the cache right?
Could the problem be the ASUS USB 2.0 Bluetooth transmitter/receiver for 20 bucks?

Come on guys, 475 is a lot of money for me.
Ryder Garcia
Next time, get senheiser mm450x
They're way better. and have no notable delay.
Charles Thompson
bose sucks, especially for the price. Bluetooth lag is real and unavoidable unless both the transmitter and the headphones support aptX Low Latency. Your headphones do not support it. Buy something else.
To his defense, it's a Bluetooth issue. You either have delay or crackling. Bluetooth is annoying as fuck.
Landon Fisher
And now you see why we need the headphone jack you fucking moron.
Parker Hughes
I bought a good car for much less
Jace Barnes
return them
Brandon Walker
Then you should have been not retarded spending it. Your own damn fault for buying bluetooth headphones. You deserved it.
Sebastian Perry
Jesus christ some of you guys are cancerous.
Anyway thanks to those of you not needlessly calling me moron and so forth. Now I know there's nothing to do and that's all I really wanted to know.

I like Bose shit.
Only because I wear glasses and they have been the only earphones to not make my ears hurt after wearing them for more than 30 minutes. Otherwise I'd use something else.
Jordan Jones
I have glasses. I use brainwavz hm5. Honestly I feel more comfortable wearing them than not
Noah Diaz
Problem is every headphones I try ends up having the same problem so I just waste money. And I've wasted too much money in the past trying out headphones. I just know Bose won't make my ears hurt so I go with them. Sound quality is good despite Sup Forums memes
Justin Brown
Do you even know what the HM5s are?
Colton King
Sounds like it's a special snowflake problem.
Lucas Morales
yes, good for him, the rest of us without the problem don't have to settle for overpriced garbage
leave him to his beloved Bose™
Hunter Robinson
OP here, I'm close to e-mail and ask the store if I can return them to get Sony WH-1000XM2 instead (sinze said aptX can get rid of the lag).
However I also wear glasses and I can indeed wear Bose for hours with no problem. Have you tried Sony WH-1000XM2, do they feel uncomfortable with glasses?
Jacob Johnson
Huh Maybe he's got one of those retarded ugly thick frame hipster glasses What, plugging in a cable too hard for you?
Matthew Phillips
Nice quads of truth there. Was lucky and got the Creative wp 300 with aptx and this is now my reference. Shit, I'll stick to cable.
Liam Lopez
>Maybe he's got one of those retarded ugly thick frame hipster glasses You are aware that those are in fashion in various cities in the US, right?

>$475 >doesn't support AptX Jesus christ that's inexcusable. They don't make it easy to figure out what codecs it DOES support, either. The previous version (the QC 35) only supported SBC (crap) and AAC (used mainly by Apple). It's safe to say you're listening to SBC, which is the standard Bluetooth audio codec and sucks balls.
I'm not even sure it's possible to get AAC up and running over bluetooth in windows in a transparent way. A quick google search tells me the answer isn't straightforward at least. Even if you could, AAC still has higher latency than even regular AptX (though much better latency AND sound quality than SBC).
Your best course of action would be to return that overpriced bose crap for some decent headphones with AptX support. However, you WILL need to buy a special bluetooth transmitter that supports AptX as well. You can find these for sale pretty cheap though.
I use a pair of regular (non-LL) AptX bluetooth headphones (Audio Technicas) at my computer, and there's no perceptible delay for me. Sound quality is great, as well. Honestly the only things I don't like about them are that as they are closed-back headphones, my ears do get hot during longer listening sessions, and the battery life is only around 8 hours. No real options for open-back bluetooth headphones, but there are a lot of models now with battery life upwards of 20 hours.

I've been using bose soundlink ae II for a while with no issues. is your bluetooth receiver fairly modern?
David King
ASUS USB-BT400 Bluetooth 4.0 USB-Adapter
looks like it was released in 2013
Caleb Stewart
hm, after going to "Devices and Printers" and re-enabling all services offered by the headset I think it has started to lag less
wtf, you'd think that it would lag less the less services that are enabled. all im really using is "Audio Sink" and "Remote Control"
Jordan Adams
>buy wireless >use it for games Come on, fag. Anyway, my Sony doesn't have this problem. You're stupid for not just plugging the wire if you're playing games though.

you need to go into device properties, and under your device, turn off handsfree (its for phoning)
You will immediately notice it gets better.

i had a bose wireless headset in like 2010, and after a while one side just stopped working. When I called them to RMA it they said No, then when I called back to complain the guy got fucking pissed and tried to chew ME out. Shit customer support.
