Sony Crackle Issue
I think there's a solution to the crackle issue. The Sonys have two profiles, headset and headphones. I found someone who
fixed the issue with their Sony DR-BT50:
"The bluetooth headphones I was using had two profiles (Headset and headphones) and while I could select the profile to use for the system output device, Logic and Garageband both defaulted to the headset profile (presumably the first profile presented by the headphones). The reason it was so garbled was because the headset profile uses a sampling rate of 8KHz, but GB/LP only output in 44.1KHz.
The solution was to un-pair (delete the pairing) of the headphones and re-pair, only this time I only selected that OSX should use the headphones profile only , and not the headset profile. Subsequent starting of GB/LP and setup of the output device presented no issues and I can now listen to my creation using my bluetooth headphones. Hooray!"
I'm thinking about buying the
White Sonys as well.
