Bluetooth Le Audio Products For Manticore/equinox 900 Might Be Coming From Sennheiser

[Chase Goldman]

If Minelab has not locked down the Manticore/Equinox 900/700 wireless audio to 3rd party BT LE audio hardware and the low-latency LC3 codec, it looks like Sennheiser is developing Bluetooth LE audio products using the same Nordic Semiconductor BT LE SoC that is used in the ML-85/ML-105 wireless headsets based on the article below:

Sennheiser makes quality audio headsets, including a popular set of BT APTX-LL earbuds that worked well with the Nox 800/600 detectors.  This also bodes well for other 3rd Party BT LE audio hardware hitting the streets, hopefully sooner rather than later.
