Although this mic is omnidirectional it still does better than all the others. And my ears hurt which means that although I cant perceive the increased volume, the actual decibels are harming my eardrums. Not tight, not too big. Great sound but lacks deep bass. I assumed instead of actually going and measuring. Its nice to know that both work well in tandem. I saw good reviews and was happy with the price point. Now a few drawbacks I see about the headset from my perspective. I hope theyll still be around when I wear these out. We are seniors but my wife is fashionable, usually with Uggs as her main footwear, and even at her age, wouldn?t want to be seen wearing these outside.
