where is the microphone for voice calls: on earpiece(s) or control unit. if on control unit, do you have to lift to mouth for callers to hear you?

It's on the control unit and no you don't have to lift it. I clipped to my shirt roughly chest level and it worked fine the one time I received a call using them.

Mic is built in at the top of the control unit, it's facing up, right next to the red cable input.Mic sensitivity is excellent, you don't have to lift it to your mouth, as long it's clipped about the shirt's pockets height.

Hi Randy, well the microphone is a little dot on the bottom where the control are and my wife tells me it's clear when I'm talking to her. I hope this helps you.

Hemal's response is correct. No direct answering / hang up from the headset. That said, for the price, I find this to be an excellent product. It is comfortable and provides clear voice reception to those I talk with. I use mine for business...4-6 hours a day.

When you lift the mic it will make a click that you will hear and anyone close to you in the room. It isn't super loud though you will know when you're on mute. Those on the call won't hear it at all, at least my calls have never noticed when I go on mute.

You can hear your voice if you have the option to play your mic through your headset on in your sound options. It's the listen tab with a check box to "listen to this device".

If you have optional handset lifter all you do is press answer button on headset. Just got it yesterday. .works like a charm. If no handset lifter option then you must lift handset...did that for couple weeks.

It has a mic on the clip, which means you must clip it near enough to your mouth (i.e. not on your belt) for the person you're calling to hear you. Also, even if you swap the earbuds for your own earbuds or headphones that have a mic and/or remote, the Clipper won't let you use your headphones' controls; it just passes audio through.

The speaker phone part has a volume control which works very well to be heard and to hear. You should be near the phone to be heard. Thanks

No you can not hear your voice through the headset.Unless you set that option up.

There is a wheel to control the volume and a button to mute as long as you are holding it. Headset works great for me.

Yes, you will have to have the headset on to answer, there is unfortunately no speaker function. I wish there was.

There appears to be a headset jack under a little cover. The icon on the cover shows the kind of headset that an operator would use (earpiece and microphone).

The headset and microphone have to be attached to amplify your voice. They do not function separately. You can hold the microphone while attached to to the amplifier to your mouth without putting it on your head.

I've only taken 2 calls with them on so far. But You can hear from both ears. I've had people tell me I sound distant (far away from mic) also.

Mic is located on the cord with a button where you can disconnect a call. Unfortunately there is no volume control.

You can't place a call on Mute with this headset. If you hit the Play/Pause button, it answers/ends a call. Swapping calls, or putting calls on hold, requires using your phone.

Agree with the other answers listed....the mic volume control is in the base unit. Hope this helps.
