Hey all,
currently we get issued Jabra headsets at our workplace (Jabra Evolve 65), which are good for telephony but listening to music is... *rough* for couple of reasons
- It has a "side tone" (a "feature") that gives constant white noise onto your ears
- Left and right channels are switched (also a "feature", so you can wear the mic either left or right)
- Obviously worst, music sounds really bad on it. On SBC this is expected, wired it's better but the side tone also becomes louder. I have tried around a lot with EQ APO (also fixed the left-right issue with it) but never got halfway satisfying results
Does anyone have a good recommendation? Requirements are:
1. Light/comfortable (wear for many hours every day)
2. On-ear (as over-ear can be considered offensive in the office environment "not ready for talking to colleagues")
3. Dedicated mic and very good telephony quality
4. Should allow for at least decent music listening, at least after applying EQ
[5. Not necessary but would be nice: wireless (with a good BT codec under windows AAC, aptX)]
I could of course use different headphone for music and telephony but this is not optimal, as it creates a lot of micro-stress when getting many calls
