Dedicated, customizable mute settings allow you to take calls confidently, ensuring you’re always heard. Set the language for voice alerts, and you’re in even greater control of your conversation.

No Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) Microphone frequency response: 100 Hz – 8 kHz optimal for PC wideband voice telephony (up to 6,800 Hz) Additionally, there’s been a universal adoption of Zoom type video conferencing software too.

Additional lower level hearing protection against acoustic startle is provided Poly Lens software limiting peak levels to 102 dBAThe headset is slightly on the heavy side for a telephone headset, but light for a pair of stereo headphones.

That being said, your head actually touches the elastic cushion that balances the headset nicely on the top of your head. I have a large head, and found the squeeze pressure to be "average" compared to a lot of other headphones I use, but slightly more pressure than my previous Plantronics phone headset that is lighter and for phone use only. The knee jerk reaction by many is to discard the headset and buy a replacement. If you’ve had a similar thought if faced with USB headset issues, hold off on that thought until you read this blog.
