Droid Turbo Bluetooth range is terrible!

I love my Droid Turbo but I've been disappointed with the range of the Bluetooth signal. It seems that if I get more than 6 feet away from my Bose speaker, it starts breaking up. I never had this problem with my previous phones, the Note 3 and 4. I'm hoping a software update can fix this. Has anyone else had this problem?
 
I am using an Aliph: Jawbone Era (2nd generation model) and I can travel twice as far from phone as I was able to with my Note 3. Also, with my Note 3 I would get random digital/pix-elation ( is that really a thing?) when on voice calls. I no longer get that with the Turbo.
I guess check what may be interfering with it ( ie: microwave, wifi routers, other bluetooth devices) or check the quality of your bluetooth speaker?
