An ambient sound control headset includes an external microphone and an earpiece with an internal speaker. A circuit acts upon a signal output by the external microphone to form a signal representative of a user's environment that is input to the internal speaker. Components of the signal output by the external microphone that have a corresponding volume level that are less than a predetermined threshold are allowed to pass to the internal speaker and components of the signal output by the external microphone that have a corresponding volume level that are greater than the predetermined threshold are compressed to have a volume that is less than the predetermined threshold.
