LG 500W 5.1 3D Blu-ray Home Theater System

This had the potential to be a good headset, but it was made un-usable by two really bad features. 1) The automatic volume control makes this headset useless. In a crowded room with other people talking, it was impossible to hear the audio-book playing on the phone, or hear the other person when on a call. Even a fixed volume level on a headset works quite well because the volume can be adjusted on the phone. But this automatic volume control means a software geek somewhere has decided what volume I ought to be listening at, based on what the software thinks of the background noise. In real life that does not work and makes this headset unuseable in anything but quiet environments. 2) The ear loop is extremely stiff and incredibly uncomfortable for me. Jabra has included only a single loop and it is not adjustable. After using it for an hour, the back of my ear had a deep divot in it. I would have tried to fix the problem by heating and re-forming the ear loop, or even fabricating a new one from scratch, but it was not worthwhile because of the volume problem. This is problem that only certain people will have but it too makes the headset un-usable as delivered. Otherwise it is a good headset with good sound quality and a good microphone that allows others to hear you quite well. Unfortunately it is usable only in quiet places because of the stupid decision to auto-adjust the volume level.
