Of course, I should probably mention that you most likely won't have much fun with running JACK on that faked device (not that that would make much sense anyway, though ...).

By "cheap" I meant non-brand devices, only indirectly the price. I.e. Motorola is a certainly a brand. OTOH I am pretty sure that non-brand headsets can be good too, and Logitech shows that brand headsets can be crap too. Yes the fact that S9 is in-ear makes it a problematic choice. I am not that fond of that either. But then again, it has relatively good quality and the A2DP is much nicer implemented than the Logitech, and it is both A2DP and HSP/HFP.
