摘要

A headset includes a housing having an inner side thereof engageable at least with a human ear and a curved member for attaching the housing behind the ear. An audible sound emitting speaker is mounted within the housing and a microphone capable of receiving sound wave and for converting the sound wave into an electrical signal is connected to one end of a boom. The other end of the boom is attached to the housing. An amplifier is disposed within the housing and is operatively connected to the speaker and the microphone for amplifying the electrical signal. A manually operable variable volume control resistive switch is operatively disposed between the amplifier and the microphone for controlling amplification of the electrical signal. A battery is contained within the housing and supplies a predetermined voltage to the amplifier and microphone. A manually operable switch controls voltage supply from the battery.
