HS50 Microphone Setup
Your new HS50 Headset features a detachable, high-performance "unidirectional" microphone. This design helps reject ambient noise, ensuring your voice is heard clearly. For optimal performance, the microphone must be pointed directly at your mouth.
- Bend the flexible microphone boom to position it near the left corner of your mouth for the best fit.
- For optimal performance, the microphone should be positioned approximately 1.5 inches (4cm) away from your mouth.
- A bend of about 30 degrees is a good starting point. Feel free to adjust this angle if your microphone's output is too loud or too soft.
