Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Ideal for business professionals, executives, and anyone else who spends a great deal of time on the phone, the Plantronics S20 all-in-one, under-the-telephone accessory deck helps increase your productivity and comfort while working. The bundle includes Plantronics' premium A20 amplifier, a convertible DuoSet headset (fits either over the head or on the ears using the comfortable ear loops), a headset stand, an online indicator, and a cord management system. The headset is the most practical accessory, naturally, as it lets you handle a host of additional tasks--such as typing on the computer, writing notes, or filing paperwork--while talking nonstop on the phone. The headset comes equipped with noise canceling technology to minimize distracting background noise, an essential in office settings. It also reduces neck, upper back, and shoulder tension so that work doesn't feel quite so stressful. Once you're finished with the headset, merely place it on the convenient stand for out-of-the-way storage. Meanwhile, the A20 amplifier ensures that the headset consistently sounds great thanks to its SoundGuard Plus and Call Clarity technologies. The features cut through the static common in cheaper amplifiers to broadcast crisp, warm tones to the listener. The amplifier also employs audio and visual cues that make it easy to adjust incoming and outgoing volumes.

The S20 system is plug-and-play, making it easy to set up in just a few minutes regardless of whether you own a single or multi-line phone. Bonus features include an online indicator that lets others know when you're on the phone and a cord management system that keeps your phone cables from taking over your workspace.

2.0 out of 5 stars Mic quality significantly degraded after a year, August 17, 2006

This review is from: Plantronics S20 Telephone Headset Accessory System (Electronics)

I have to admit- I've never had particularly good success with plantronics' products. I'd previously had two other different plantronics headsets. After a year or so, the sound quality in the mic (the way others hear me) seems to degrade to the point of being unusable for anything but short, casual conversations. You'd think I'd have learned by now!

Anyway, worked like a charm for the first 6 months. All as advertised. Then the sound quality started to deteriorate (people complained of echo & a muffled tone).

I used it heavily (4+ hrs a day), and have quite a loud voice. Maybe others who used it less wouldn't have the same problem.
