ABSTRACT:
A self-supporting headset worn on the ear of a user without a headband or placed in a stand as a desk-top microphone system by a switch-function installed in the headset. The headset includes a housing which accommodates a receiver, an arcuate earband connected by a spring to the housing and a pivotally connected boom microphone which extends from the housing to near the lips of a user. The earband can have a shape substantially corresponding to human ear structure for placement behind the ear of the user. The arcuate housing is placed over the entire outer ear to transmit audio signals without any need for an ear tube. An earband member can have a female member on the bottom surface so as to connect a member to mate with a male member located on the stand, to thereby secure the headset on the stand. The headset can be equipped with noise cancellation technology to remove background noise for optional use on with telephones, computers, or any the like.
