Overview of the Sennheiser SH330 IP corded headet
The Sennheiser SH 330 IP is a wideband, noise cancelling corded headset. It is designed to be used with your desk phone, smart phone, or computer (each requires the correct connector cable). The SH 330 IP is an over the head wearing style, which can be worn on either left or right side by rotating the microphone.
What is EPOS? EPOS is the new co-branded name for Sennheiser.
All corded headsets come with a brand specific QD (quick disconnect) connection and require a same brand adapter cable to make them compatible with your phone. These range in price from $26 upwards. Many of these cables look the same but are different inside, so if you’re not 100% sure which you need, give us a call and our staff will gladly check for you.
The Good
The Sennheiser SH330 IP (wideband) headset comes with both leatherette and foam ear cushions (which saves you buying a spare) as well as a clothing clip and protective carry bag which is great for hot-deskers. It has a lightweight fully adjustable headband. The noise cancelling microphone of the SH330 IP prevents any unwanted noise being heard by your callers, while the flexible boom ensures perfect positioning.
The patented Activeguard technology in the SH 330 IP protects the user’s hearing from sudden loud noises which can cause acoustic shock. The headset of course comes with the peace of mind of a 2 year manufacturer’s warranty. The SH330IP is a wideband headset which means it offers the most natural sounding voice quality. If you don’t have a wideband phone this won’t make any difference to you but if you do or may be moving to VOIP in the future, then get this IP version (or any other) of Sennheiser’s headsets.
Sennheiser’s years of expertise & experience in high end professional audio has been ploughed into their headsets and has created the new benchmark in headsets. Even their entry level headsets are excellent.
The Not So Good
It’s hard to put this delicately but if you’re thinning ontop the thin metal headband may not be the most comfortable option for you.Other than that, the negatives of the Sennheiser SH 330 IP corded headset are really just generic corded headset issues; You are tethered to your phone via a cable, this can be frustrating when wires lie across your desk and get in the way of papers or drop down and get crushed & tangled under chair wheels. If your work requires that you move about before or during a call, a wireless headset can save you time and hassle (and tangled hair!).If you don’t have a headset port on your phone, a corded headset will take the place of your handset. If you still want to use the handset you can pick up a switch to allow you to swap between the two.
As we’ve mentioned, corded headsets need connector cables, so don’t forget to factor in those costs when budgeting. If you have a phone that is difficult to match for compatibility you may have to look at an amplifier. An amp, while providing superior call control (with mute and volume controls) and sound quality, will push up the price to about the same as a wireless headset (which have an amp built in), no brainer – if you need an amp, get a wireless headset!
The Verdict
The Sennheiser SH330 headset is a stylish solution for users that need to communicate with colleagues around them in between calls.
Other headsets to consider before buying
For users that are on calls for extended periods of time, or have a particularly noisy workplace the Sennheiser or may be a better option to increase call concentration. If staff sit close together and it’s really noisy the ultra noise cancelling of the Sennheiser is definitely worth the extra investment. If you’re not yet brand loyal to Sennheiser, the Plantronics is an executive styled option.
For those with older or less common phones, the Jabra range offers a smart cable which will provide a compatibility solution for the majority of phones. Have a look at the Jabra for a robust, quality solution.
Another factor to consider is the extra productivity that can be gained from the freedom to walk away from your desk while on a call. It is worth checking out the which is a great entry level wireless option for only a small amount extra. If you’re already in love with Sennheiser then the is an executive favourite.
