Over the head Headsets

Over the head style telephone headsets such as the Agent 100 Monaural NC Headset and the BT Converse 2 Headset are not a new innovation but due to the stability they offer, they have remained a popular choice for telephone headset users. For most people, one of the main factors in choosing a telephone headset is that it should remain securely in position against the user's ear leaving the user free to use their hands for typing or other duties. The over the head headset is perfect for this the usually adjustable head band acts to hold the headset against the sides of the user's head lightly but firmly.

Things to Consider When Buying

Weight is always a consideration when buying a headset and it should not be the least of your considerations when buying an over the head style telephone headset. The weight of the headband can significantly alter the experience of wearing the headset over the course of the day and so it is worth looking for a headset with a light but ruggedly built headband. Another major consideration to take into account with over the head headsets is whether you would prefer a monaural headset or a binaural headset.
