A communication headset is disclosed having a microphone for transmitting the user's voice and a receiver for transmitting audio signals into the user's ear. In a monaural configuration, the headset includes a resilient, generally U-shaped headband, to be worn over the head, having a housing adjustably attached at one end and a stabilizing clip at the other. The receiver assembly is mounted to the housing with a ball and socket type arrangement, allowing the receiver assembly to rotate axially and pivot in a spherical fashion with respect to the housing, thereby increasing comfort and acoustic coupling with any size or shape ear. A binaural configuration is also disclosed wherein the stabilizing clip is replaced with a second receiver assembly, ball and socket joint, and housing. The microphone is mounted on the distal end of a microphone boom for positioning adjacent the user's mouth. The proximal end of the boom is mounted to the housing with a universal joint, allowing the boom to be easily moved away from the user's face and also allowing the headset to be easily converted for use on either the left or the right side of the user's head.
