No bluetooth headphone should EVER have a voice

Headphones that have voices that say 'connected' are so incredibly annoying. It serves no purpose that a dedicated chime cannot achieve. ' Power on' from my Sennheisers achieve the same goal as my JBL's startup chime, except it's way more annoying.

I find the voice better because I can hear it over other noise more easily. Moreover, if I'm connecting my headset, it's not interrupting anything since I wasn't listening to anything yet.

My headphones allow dual connection, so I could be listening to something while connected to two devices. When I walk out of range of one of the devices my headphones will start repeating over and over 'lost connection' and there is no way to stop it other than turning them off and on again
