Plantronics has introduced the new Discovery 665 Bluetooth Headset with AudioIQ, the industry’s first DSP (digital signal processing) sound technology that claims to automatically optimise audio levels on both sides of every call — improving sound clarity for both callers and listeners.

The AudioIQ boasts to enhance sound quality of regardless of the environment. For incoming calls, AudioIQ automatically adapts to background noise levels — from a quiet taxi to a noisy city street — and intelligently improves the receive quality, clarity and volume level.

For outgoing calls, AudioIQ reduces the background
noise for listeners up to 7-8 decibels, or by approximately 50%, it also minimises interference from speech distortions to maintain exceptionally clear voice intelligibility.

The headset comes complete with a charging and storage system designed for use in the car and has Plantronics'
QuickPair technology that promises, as the name suggests, quick, simple set up and pairing with your phone.

The Plantronics Discovery 665 is available now in the region of £69.99.
