1 min read

CSR has announced that the new LG HBM-260, the first wideband speech enabled Bluetooth mono headset from LG, was created using its BC6145 Bluetooth audio platform, pictured.

This is the first such solution to be qualified to the new Bluetooth HFP 1.6 profile. The headset incorporates high quality hd voice capability, and features the BC6145's support for CSR's CVC bi directional noise reduction technology. According to CSR, audio enhancements provide 'superior call clarity', as well as A2DP1.2 based music streaming. "CSR's platform philosophy is to make it as easy as possible for customers like LG to offer consumers a superior audio experience with the latest features," said Anthony Murray, senior vice president of CSR's Audio and Consumer Business Unit. "The early provision of wideband speech technology in our audio platform supports the roll out of hd voice and coupled with CSR's latest 6th Generation CVC audio enhancements we are able to meet demands for the highest quality audio, even in very noisy environments." The CSR BC6145 was the first mono headset platform in the world to support the newly ratified HFP 1.6 Bluetooth profile.
