Best Wireless Headsets for Sales Calls: Top Picks for SDRs, AEs, and S

0 comments

In sales, how you sound matters just as much as what you say. Whether you’re an SDR making high-volume outbound calls, an AE running discovery and demos, or a sales manager leading a team, clear communication is critical. Poor audio quality, dropped connections, or background noise can undermine credibility, distract prospects and even cause you to lose sales.

In our latest video, Best Wireless Headsets for Sales Calls (SDRs, AEs, Sales Managers), we put two premium business headsets to the test:

EPOS Impact 1000
Yealink HA64 Pro

Both headsets performed exceptionally well in our sound quality, and noise reduction tests. Below, we break down why these models stand out, and how choosing the right business-grade headset can elevate your sales conversations.

Why Business-Grade Headsets Matter for Sales Calls

Sales professionals rely on headsets for hours each day. Unlike consumer headsets, business-grade wireless headsets are designed for:

Superior microphone clarity
Advanced noise cancellation
Long-range, stable wireless connections
All-day comfort
Long service life (often reaching or exceeding 5+ years)

While they may cost more upfront compared to their less expensive, consumer grade cousins, their durability and performance make them a smart long-term investment. Built for all-day use, comfort, sound quality and reliability, you don’t have to think too long about how those things bring value to each of your business sales calls.

EPOS Impact 1000: Professional Audio with Enterprise Features

The EPOS Impact 1000 is a premium wireless headset built for demanding sales environments.

Key strengths:

Exceptional microphone quality for natural, professional voice sound - superior to many
Strong background noise reduction, ideal for busy offices or home environments
Enterprise-grade build quality designed for rigorous daily use and longevity

One consideration:

Like many business headsets, the EPOS Impact 1000 relies on software downloads for advanced settings and customization. In some organizations, employees are restricted from installing software which can limit flexibility.

Comfort solution:

Some users have reported that the on-ear design can feel uncomfortable over long periods. To address this, Headset Advisor developed a fully surrounding ear cushion specifically for the EPOS Impact 1000, significantly improving comfort during extended wear. And, as an added bonus, this larger ear cushion passively filters out unwanted background noise so you can concentrate better; a sort of noise barrier that dampens down incoming sounds.

Yealink HA64 Pro: Premium Performance Without Software Restrictions

The Yealink HA64 Pro is another standout option to consider for professional sounding sales calls,and it brings some unique characteristics to the table.

What sets it apart:

Professional-grade microphone and noise cancellation, on par with top-tier headsets, and surpassing the majority of them.
Interactive color touchscreen on the base station, allowing users to:

Adjust audio settings
Manage preferences
Control features
(without the need to download software)

This makes the HA64 Pro an excellent choice for organizations with strict IT policies.

Added bonus:

Dual mode - unlike other headsets that are Bluetooth or DECT, the Yealink HA64 Pro features both. And, its uniqueness doesn’t stop there because both of these technologies are built into the headset instead of the base. That distinction provides the best of both worlds; Long wireless range thanks to DECT, and Bluetooth versatility, including out of office use, as a result of Bluetooth. Other headsets may feature both, but in those headsets, the Bluetooth is housed in the base, and not the headset which doesn’t allow for Bluetooth connectivity outside of the office.

Triple connectivity. The Yealink HA64 Pro provides you with a variety of ways to connect including to computers, mobile devices and desk phones. This versatility is one more example of the many advantages offered by the HA64 Pro.

So if sound quality, comfort, long wireless range, and multi-device connectivity is important to you, then the Yealink HA64 Pro is a headset you’ll want to consider.

Noise Cancellation That Goes Even Further with neep

Both headsets already offer impressive noise reduction, but for professionals who want the ultimate level of background noise elimination, pairing either headset with neep AI noise canceling software can take call clarity to the next level.

This combination is especially valuable for:

Home offices
Shared workspaces
High-noise environments

The result: fewer distractions, clearer conversations, and a more professional presence on every sales call. Noise doesn’t discriminate, and noise is known to be the ultimate disrupter. So if noise is something you wrestle with, a real world, real effective combination is pairing a high quality business headset with neep noise canceling software. I think you’ll be pleasantly impressed with how good you’ll sound, and how little noise your callers will hear.

DECT vs. Bluetooth: A Real-World Wireless Range Test

One of the most eye-opening moments in the video is a side-by-side wireless range demonstration.

The test:

A Bluetooth headset user stood near a Yealink HA64 Pro user (DECT wireless)
The distance increased across a football field

The results:

Bluetooth headset: Became unusable at approximately 30–40 yards
Yealink HA64 Pro (DECT): Crystal-clear audio at 100 yards and beyond

This highlights a critical difference for sales professionals who move around while on calls. DECT wireless technology offers dramatically greater range and stability than Bluetooth which is ideal for multitasking, walking meetings, or large offices.

For those who remain stationary at a desk during the work day, a Bluetooth headset could be the right choice, though it doesn’t address those moments when you want to leave your desk to grab a fresh cup of coffee for example, or any of those other tasks that would cause you to step away.

Long-Term Value: Why Paying More Makes Sense

Business-grade headsets typically last five years or more. When you spread the cost over that lifespan, the annual expense difference compared to consumer headsets is minimal especially when you consider:

Superior noise cancellation
All day comfort
Fewer replacements
Better call quality for both ends of the conversation
Improved productivity
Stronger professional image

Avoiding repeat conversations, misheard details, or distracted prospects alone can justify the investment. Not to mention business headsets are made for all day use, they’re designed to be comfortable through ergonomic design, strategically placed padding, adjustable headbands, rotating ear speakers etc. all designed for a personalized fit and a full day of wearing comfort.

Final Thoughts: The Right Headset Is a Sales Advantage

If you’re serious about sales performance, audio quality shouldn’t be an afterthought, it should be the centerpiece of any headset you might consider. Both the EPOS Impact 1000 and Yealink HA64 Pro deliver the clarity, noise control, comfort and reliability sales professionals need. It is true that you don’t get a second chance to make a first impression, so why risk your image, and potentially, your sales outcomes by using a budget focused headset?

Investing in a good quality, professional sounding business headset is an investment in your success. Sound quality, when in the heat of a sales conversation, matters. You want your message to be heard, and you certainly don’t want your prospects or customers to become distracted by the noise going on around you. That’s where a quality headset shows its true value. Every occupation has its own set of tools, and for high performing Salespeople, a quality business grade headset is one of the most important tools available.
