yes... In fact, I think the G9x is the only unit that has the 3.5mm jack necessary for using earbuds.Yes, The Scala G9 & G9X have a 3.5mm jack that the headset plugs into. You can also use any earbuds or headphones you want. Most other units headsets are hardwired directly into the unit.
Can you use earbuds with these units?

G9's don't have the jack.Yes you are correct, I totally forgot I upgraded to G9X cradles when my G9 cradle speakers quit working on one side. Funny because I have a pair of G9's but only use one. The headset speaker died so I said no problem I have the other cradle to switch out. I switched it out & not even a week later I lost a speaker on that cradle too !!. I was going to get a different brand of headsets "sena" but found out the new G9X cradles had a 3.5 jack, Upgraded speakers & retrofitted the G9. I bought the G9X cradles & have never had a problem since, Been almost 3 years. I guess Scala quietly figured out they had a problem otherwise why would they of changed to upgraded speakers & having a jack instead of permanently attached speakers ?
G9X's were the first Scala's to have the 3.5.
You can buy a G9X cradle kit for about $60, and that gives you the jack and will work with G9's.
Essentially, turns a G9 into a G9X.
That's what I've done for mine.

I agree!I have never updated mine since I have had no software problems, Are there any other improvements with the update ?.
I've heard many say they've had audio problems with their G9's audio failing.
I've owned my G9 Powerset for 3 years now, and haven't had this problem.
But 2 years ago I upgraded to the G9X cradles, and use earbuds.
I have had a lot of software-related issues (bugs) with mine, but since I recently upgraded to their latest software version, it seems to have corrected those issues. Plus, the new female voice is MUCH nicer...
