Will theBoom help the person I'm calling hear me clearly no matter where I am?

Yes. theBoom will help the other party hear you better than any technology available on the market today.

Will theBoom help me hear the person on the other end of the phone?

theBoom will help you hear the other person better in loud environments compared to most competing products as we have incorporated a high-quality speaker into the earpiece of theBoom. It is essential to place the speaker close to and facing your ear canal. There is a special swivel within the magnet portion of the EarWrap that can be pulled downward and rotated for optimal positioning.

Do I have to speak loudly when I'm in a noisy environment in order for theBoom to work?

No. You can speak in a normal tone of voice. In fact, privacy is one of the key benefits of theBoom. In a noisy place (e.g. a restaurant, bar, or hotel lobby) the person sitting next to you may not be able to hear what you are saying, but the person on the other end of the line will. Though it is counter-intuitive to speak softly in a noisy environment, you will quickly realize how effective and valuable this capability is.

Will the person I'm on the phone with be able to figure out where I am?

No. theBoom blocks out most background noise in virtually any environment. The person on the other end of your call will only hear you. Thus, theBoom will give you the ability and comfort to make business (as well as personal) calls wherever you are. You will not need to repeat yourself.

Does theBoom enhance the built-in voice recognition capabilities of my cell phone?

Yes. You will find that theBoom dramatically improves the effectiveness of any voice recognition system you use.

But other cell phone headset manufacturers claim that their products have noise-canceling capabilities. How is theBoom different?

Many cell phone headsets achieve some noise canceling because they use a type of microphone with inherent noise-canceling properties: a two-port microphone. But these microphones only perform well over a narrow bandwidth. theBoom’s technology, however, enables our product to provide clarity across the entire speech bandwidth in noisy environments. This clarity gives you the confidence to use theBoom anywhere, no other technology gives this freedom.

What are those funny little foam balls?

They are windscreens. In windy conditions it is essential to use a windscreen. For placement, gently pull the windscreen over the microphone piece.

Which cell phones are compatible with theBoom?

Currently theBoom will work with most cell phones on the market, including all cell phones that use a standard 2.5 mm jack. We also have adaptors that connect to proprietary Nokia, Siemens, Samsung, and Sony Ericsson phones. If you have questions regarding a specific phone, please email jacks@theboom.com.

theBoom comes with 2 adaptors that will fit most popular cell phones. Other adapters can be sent on request. Please call or email us to inquire about any special needs.

Is theBoom wireless?

No. UmeVoice’s primary concern is clarity. When we are convinced that clarity will not suffer with a wireless solution, we will develop a wireless boom.

Is theBoom available in multiple colors?

Currently theBoom is only available in one color.

How heavy is theBoom?

Will it hurt to wear it for many hours?theBoom is very light. The total weight, including the cord is about 1oz. theBoom is designed to be extremely comfortable and worn all day
