EPOS Impact 730 Single Ear USB Wired Headset

EPOS, with its Nordic roots, and widely known for creating high quality communication devices, has introduced a new headset well worth your time to evaluate, and consider. 

If you’re someone who's looking for a headset that covers one ear, can be comfortably worn all-day, one that sounds great, and won’t break the bank, then you'll want to take a good close look at the EPOS Impact 730.

When you do, you’ll find the Impact 730 has impressive features, a longer warranty and an attractive price. Here are some of the main points of the EPOS Impact 730:

What’s in the box

We all want to know what you get when you order something, so here’s what you can expect to receive when you order an EPOS Impact 700:

• Headset
• Travel bag
• USB-C adapter with USB-C to USB-A adapter
• Safety guide
• Quick start guide
• Compliance sheet
• Inline controller

Configurations

The EPOS Impact 700 series gives you the option to select a Microsoft Teams or UC version. You also have the choice between a single or double ear model. Specifically, these are the 730, 730T (mono headset in the UC or Teams variant), and the 760 and 760T, which are both double ear headsets which can be found on a separate listing on our website.

So if Microsoft Teams is your primary communication platform, you’ll want to select the Teams variant. But if you use different communications applications such as RingCentral, Zoom and others, then select the UC version.

Connectivity

The Impact 730 connects to all the leading UC applications such as Microsoft Teams, RingCentral, Zoom, and others. The headset comes with a USB-C connector so you can plug in to your desktop or laptop computers. But if your computer uses USB-A ports, no worries because the Impact 730 comes with a USB-C to USB-A adapter. Either way, you’re connected, and ready for your next call.

Microsoft Open Office Certified

The EPOS 730 is Microsoft open office certified. This means that this headset has undergone rigorous testing to assure it can withstand the performance criteria in a noisy open office environment. 

So if you use Microsoft Teams, and you find your workplace can become noisy, or even distracting, then consider the EPOS Impact 730 to help keep you focused, and productive.

EPOS Ai Microphone

There are an increasing amount of ways Ai is aiding us in our work and play. The EPOS Impact 730 uses EPOS Ai to help filter out distracting noise, while enhancing your voice audio to give you a more natural sound. 

We all want to sound good on our voice and video calls, and we all don’t want our caller’s hearing the noise going on in our background. To help get your message across and maintain your professionalism, the three beamforming, Ai based microphones found on the EPOS Impact 730 flat out, gets the job done.

There’s no arguing that sound quality, and noise reduction varies a lot between headset models, and brands. Rest assured that the sound you get from the EPOS Impact 730 will leave you satisfied, impressed and sounding crisp, clear and professional.

Mute Alert

When you want to mute the microphone, you can raise the mic boom upwards to mute, and lower it to unmute. You can also mute the microphone from the inline controller. And, when you’re muted you’ll be notified via the LED and you’ll hear an audible to remind you of your mute status if you begin speaking while muted. The LED at the end of the microphone boom will flash if you begin talking while muted. This is to remind you that your microphone is off.

Call Volume Normalizer - Speech Clarity

This is a feature you seldom find on headsets at any price point. If your caller has low speaking volume, the EPOS Impact 730 will adjust the volume up to a more normal level. This avoids struggling to hear your callers, or the need to ask them to repeat themselves. 

And if your incoming caller has a muffled sound, the Impact 730 will elevate the high frequencies in the incoming voice signal to smooth out the audio making the sound of your callers easier to understand. And when you're wanting to get things done on your calls, clear, intelligible communication is highly important.

Inline Controller

Anyone who wears a headset knows you need to make adjustments from time to time. This can be to mute the microphone or change the hearing volume for example. When adjustments are located on the side of the headset, they’re out of sight, which means you need to rely on memory, or feel.

The EPOS Impact 730 headset make these tasks easier thanks to the conveniently located inline controller. The controller is within easy reach, and allows you to

• Take a call
• End a call
• Mute and unmute the microphone
• And regulate the ear speaker volume.

So you can forget what you might otherwise need to remember, which is the location of the buttons on your old headset. The EPOS Impact 730 inline controller brings ease and convenience to your fingertips.

All-Day Comfort

The EPOS Impact 730 was not only designed to have excellent sound quality, but it was designed to be comfortable. And comfort starts with the weight of the headset. Here’s how much the 730 weights, and I have to warn you, it's not much:

• Impact 730 Mono  -  80 grams / 2.82 ounces

Most over the head style headsets will weigh between 5-10 ounces, depending on the wearing style (mono or duo), as well as the make and model. It's rare to find a mono style headset that weighs so little. But don't let its light weight fool you into believing that this is a stripped down, cheaply made headset because nothing could be further from the truth. This is a well-built, great sounding headset with a lengthy warranty to match.

But being lightweight isn’t the entire comfort picture because padding is another element that plays an important role. Thankfully EPOS chose to incorporate a generous amount of memory foam padding into the ear cushions. Memory foam conforms to the exact shape of your ear so you get a custom feel without the need to be custom fitted.

So If you work in a Contact Center, or somewhere that requires you to wear a headset for long periods of time, comfort, as you know, is important. And this is one headset that should be on your short list if comfort is high on your priority list.

Smart Features

The Impact 730 includes some features only found on high-end, premium headsets such as intuitive controls like:

Boom arm muting - raise the microphone boom arm up to mute your call, and lower it to unmute it. This feature is popular among headset wearers because it eliminates the need to search for, and locate a microphone mute button. The Impact 730 still gives you that option, but you can also access this feature by simply raising the boom.

Auto answer/end - The Impact 730 headset includes smart sensors that detect when you have the headset on, and off. And if you put it on when you have an incoming call for example, the headset will automatically answer the incoming call. 

Some might say that these are minor features, but in daily usage, they amount to much more than that. And when you take into consideration all the different features that have gone into the making this headset, you’ll quickly see that this is a headset to seriously consider.

High Vis Busy Alert

To help eliminate the potential for unwanted interruptions while on calls, the EPOS Impact 730 comes with integrated high visibility busy lights. These bright LED's can be seen from any angle which helps to prevent unexpected intrusions.

You get more done when you're not interrupted, and the integrated busy lights on the Impact 730 keep you focused and not distracted.

Software For Your Hardware

Headsets, like other kinds of technology equipment, benefit from software integration. The EPOS Impact 730 headset interoperates with different EPOS software offerings for a more personalized device, better management of devices across the enterprise, and an App that keeps you connected no matter where life takes you.

Longer Peace of Mind

If you’ve been shopping around for headsets, you may have discovered that the length of warranty between headset makes and models vary. Some offer a 1-year warranty, and others will give you one a bit longer at 2-years. The EPOS Impact 730 headset goes beyond that and comes with an impressive 3-year warranty. And what's not to like in a longer warranty?

And though the length of a warranty isn't the centerpiece for making a buying decision, it is something to take into consideration. This longer warranty means you'll have longer peace of mind, and gives you the assurance that you won’t be facing any unexpected headset related expenses for a full three years. This longer warranty is another reason to consider the EPOS Impact 730.

Solid Headset - Solid Choice

When you consider the different features included with the EPOS Impact 730, it’s hard to argue that this isn’t a good headset choice to consider. Shop features, shop warranties and shop price and when you do, the Impact 730 should be right at the top of your list.
