I work from home, over the Internet, and spend a good deal of time in conference calls. I bought this headset because with my previous headsets, other people were having trouble hearing me, or were hearing echoes when I wasn't muted, etc. From the moment I plugged this one in, all those problems stopped, and I could hear the other callers much better. The noise cancellation is very good, too - people no longer hear the washer and dryer that are 10 feet from my desk, but have no problem hearing me.
The headset is a bit tight on the head, which takes some getting used to, but the sound is well worth that inconvenience - I never realized that 'hold' music actually had some fidelity to the sound before; now I find myself actually enjoying it, well, at least a little, sometimes.
