Experience exceptional call quality when you use the .Audio 626 to make VoIP (voice internet protocol) calls using Skype or other Internet phone services. Whether you're on the phone with friends or clients, they'll appreciate how clear you sound, thanks to DSP (digital signal processing) technology. This multifaceted technology improves both outgoing and incoming audio for crisp, natural conversation. DSP technology captures the full voice range and stabilizes the spoken voice by amplifying or minimizing certain frequency ranges. This ensures a more natural-sounding conversation and reduces listening fatigue for the person on the other end of your call. Wideband Echo Cancellation and Noise-Cancelling Microphone

Sound professional no matter where you're calling from. The .Audio 626 uses a two-step approach to remove distracting background noise and improve voice clarity. First, a noise-cancelling microphone minimizes the distractions typically found in a busy home, office, or travel stop. Second, DSP enhances the performance of that noise-canceling microphone by blocking out low-frequency noise for clearer conversations. A central part of this improved sound is DSP's wideband acoustic echo cancellation, which diminishes feedback and reduces speaker-to-microphone echo (a common problem that can affect VoIP calls). Rich Stereo Sound with Noise Reduction to Prevent Distortion

When listening to your favorite band or catching up on games and movies, enjoy an enhanced listening experience that includes rich, 24-bit hi-fi stereo sound provided by the .Audio 626's acoustically tuned digital equalizers. DSP technology also works to prevent the creation of artificial noise or distortion, allowing the .Audio 626 to offer smooth volume transitions that preserve high audio quality. Over-the-Head Design for Comfort and Convenience

The .Audio 626 is a compact addition to your home or office setup. Its traditional over-the-head wearing style, lightweight construction, and soft foam ear pads combine to make it comfortable enough for all-day wear, while inline controls offer quick, easy access to mic mute and volume control. Simple Plug-and-Play Setup

Setup is simple: just plug the headset into your computer's USB port and you're good to go. There's no software to install, no configuration, and no hassles. The Plantronics .Audio 626 DSP PC Headset is backed by a one-year warranty. What's in the Box

With the Plantronics name you would expect this microphone and headset combo to produce good quality sound and it does deliver. The sound is clear and easy to understand what others are saying and the person your talking to can hear you clearly as well. Installation on my computer was a snap. Basically I plugged it in and my Mac found it and started using it right away without any trouble. My only dislike on the product is level of comfort. A previous Plantronics headset I had the headphone speakers were able to flex and move a bit adjusting to the angle of your ears so it was equal pressure all around. This headset does not allow for that (headphone part is attached directly to the band) so its not nearly as comfortable to use for extended periods of time. This might be okay if it was an over the ear design but since it sits directly on the ear and has little padding it gets annoying quickly. If you intend on using these for more than short periods of time or daily I would step up to a better model that offers a bit more comfort....

I bought this headset for use with my Rosetta Stone language software program and for music. I wanted good sound quality without a compromise in the microphone quality. I also demand comfort.

I've had two headsets prior to my purchase of the Plantronics Audio 626. One of them did not have good mic quality. The likely reason for this is that it was not USB. If you want good microphone quality, you absolutely need to buy a headset with USB connection. This is because USB headsets are electronic to electronic sound signals. I can't get any more technical than that but if you want to know more about why USB connection is better, you can easily find articles on technology websites that will provide more details. Both of my previous headsets were uncomfortable for long periods. Actually, my first headset had very little padding.

I began to wonder if I could ever find a comfortable, high quality headset that would fit my budget (I'm a college student). Every time I use this Plantronics Audio 626 I am amazed at what I got for my money. This kind of quality is worth well over $30!

The sound is incre...
