Miccus SR71 headphones Bluetooth 4.2 version?

[88junior]

After the recent Minelab updates are your Miccus headphones working good? After communication with Miccus they seem to think that their version 5 Bluetooth headphones don't work due to the recent Minelab updates. I'm thinking it's due to the version 5 Bluetooth updates to their headphones though. So that is why I am asking how your version 4.2 Miccus sr71 headphones are working. Thanks Morgan

Morgan,

Are you saying that the new Miccus version 5 Bluetooth phones won't work with the 2.0 upgrade for the Equinox? I am almost sure that I read somewhere that someone got the new version 5 Bluetooth phones from Miccus, and they worked perfectly with the Equinox, but I think that was BEFORE the 2.0 Equinox upgrade.

I will be interested to hear if someone can confirm that the NEW Miccus SR-71 phones (with v. 5 Bluetooth) work with the NEW Equinox 2.0 upgrade...

Steve I bought a new set of the Miccus sr71 version 5 Bluetooth headphones and they are a pain to get to pair and when they do pair theysound horrible and the audio is all broken and distorted sounding. And this is with version 1.5 ,1.75 and version 2.0 on the Nox.

My guess would be that you got a bad pair, but I could be wrong, of course. Again, I am almost sure I read in another place that someone used a pair of the new version 5 Bluetooth phones with the Equinox, with very good results. I'll see if I can find the post, to confirm.

Steve they pair and sound great with other Bluetooth devices like my phone and tablet but they sound like crap connected to the Nox. It's just strange.

I bought mine 12/1/18.
They are working fine, I just tried them.
I did the latest update.

See Miccus is saying that the recent Minelab updates is the issue but I am about positive it's Miccus's issue of going from 4.2 to 5.0 Bluetooth even though Miccus said that the 5.0 version is backwards compatible with Bluetooth 4.1 & 4.2.

I use mine for music and gaming. They sound great with everything except the metal detector. Other headphones (especially wired ones) sound 10x better on the Equinox.

My Miccus SR71's still work fine after the update.

I got the SR-71 a month or so ago. will not pair with the 800 under any versions and Miccus customer support does not know why this is happening.

So I just use them with the WM-08 module which gives me good audio and fast response.

I just purchased a pair of Miccus SR-71, 5.0 and they will not pair with my 600. My 600 is running the 1.75 version.

Why haven't you updated your Equinox to 2.0? I would suggest you do the update and then try your headphones!

I downloaded the upgrade and the headphones will not pair with my 600.

Steve,

I have the latest version of the SR-71 and they don't pair with my 800. Miccus customer support tried, but says they don't know why this is happening.

I just use the SR-71 with my WM-08 and I am ok with that.

When you went to pair them did you hold the power button down the whole time on the headphones and turn on the equinox and the bluetooth button with
your other hand while still holding down that button on the headphones?
