    @Alue I'm not in the US unfortunately... Do you also recommend them for work use over the provided headset ?

    New Job Involves Phone Calls and the Use of a Bilateral Headset

    Guys just to let you know that yesterday night, after the jaw clenching and biting etc, my the noise seems to have migrated towards my other ear.... It's also more of a "sound" now and less of a static.
