No, it will not amplify your voice. If you are looking for something like that, I did have a phone like Clarity's XL-30 Amplified Phone with Outgoing Voice Amplifier. I still have that phone, but no land line these days. It was great, I lived in an area where the resident thieves would call my home frequently to find out when I was and wasn't home. They never ever hung up until I flipped the switch to amplify my voice. Must of scared them. But my grandmother in another state loved the fact that I could amplify my voice, but I had to remember to whisper when it was on because she wasn't that hard of hearing.

I don't know the answer, but I can't imaging it having a problem with other phone systems. It is a fairly basic device to amplify volume.

The amplification is very strong and it does audibly when announce who is calling.

My best answer is that if you can use a microphone to talk through the speaker of your current device, then you could very well select the MPOW as your default speaker and amplify your voice.

I'm not sure, I bought one for my work phone, hoping it would amplify the sound. I was not impressed, very disappointed

You have to set up a profile for your voice (one voice per profile) so I'm thinking it will hear the other voices but may not properly recognize the words.

At least with the pair I got, it doesn't have a microphone, so in that regard no. As far as android goes I think if you have just headphones plugged in, it'll still pick up voice from the phone's microphone. I haven't tested it on this pair though.

I have only used the microphone during a phone call one time but the person seemed to hear me just fine. The music/media completely stops and my phone begins to vibrate (I keep my phone on vibrate but if I had a ringtone I'm assuming my ring tone would come on since the music turns off). I hope this helps.

Yes, it's just like using a normal handset. However, I've had friends tell me that the first second or so of what I'm saying is cut off.

It just takes input from the speaker output. It does not amplify only attenuate the speaker volume

From the manual:"You can adjust the volume of incoming calls by simply sliding the VOL control. This gives you up to 18 dB more volume. If you want more amplification, follow the directions below.1. Press the AMPLIFY button as shown in Figure 9 to turn the incoming voice amplifier on or off. When AMPLIFY is on, the AMPLIFY indicator comes on.http://www.manualslib.com/manual/208772/Ameriphone-Xl50.html?page=6#manual

I tried this yesterday when talking to my husband, and yes, it did amplify the sound of our phone conversation! This thing is fantastic! I love it!

Not necessarily, but it's possible. If your current amplification source (e.g. the internal headphone amp in a PC, phone, or whatever) distorts at higher volume, using an external amp like this can allow you to turn the volume knob down on your device and reduce this distortion. If your current amplification source can boost volume without distorting, then you should not notice any improvement in sound quality

No! That feature is base on the phone it is paired with. The headset itself does NOT have that capability.

No. The speaker stops when a call is received. It also has no mic to recieve your voice.

Yes. To amplify its sound you plug in on phones output (you choose either the bigger stereo plug output - called P10, it is the bigger plug - or the smaller stereo one, modeled P2, the same plug you have on your phones for pluging in on an MP3 player, or use the AUX output, stereo, like if you would plug in a Cd player, DVD or Blu-ray (the black and red plugs). So, summarzing it all, you have three ways to do it and they all work perfectly. No complocations! :-)
