Microphone picks up too much sound | SoundComm™ B30 headset
Check the position of the microphone.
Microphone placement is important for clear communication. With the headset on your head, make these adjustments:
- Grasp the boom with your fingers and move the microphone so it is level with your mouth
- Position the microphone a 1/2" from your mouth with the Bose logo facing away from your mouth
Be sure the intercom is configured properly.
If the intercom is not properly configured for use with the headset, the sound level and quality can suffer. For more information, see Configuring the headset intercom gain settings.
Turn off the Acoustic Noise Reduction.
In high-noise environments or when speaking too loudly into the microphone, sound passing through the microphone can become distorted since the signal is also boosted by the active electronics in the headset
Turn off the power switch to disable ANR and use the headset passively. If the issue is resolved, use the headset passively until volume levels near the microphone are reduced
