Which codec are you using? It may be related to compression and lossey codec's, but I'm guessing you're running a/ulaw which is not lossey. If it's not codec, it is probably phone, I haven't tried the Snom's but Polycom's quality has always impressed me.
You may also want to look at an amplified headset (Stereo) from plantronics, that should help tremendously if the user is willing to use it. If they're on the phone more then 30 minutes a day (especially doing other stuff while on the phone) then a headset is a invaluable tool. -----Original Message----- From: Martin Glazer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: September 13, 2006 10:50 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [on-asterisk] Sound quality for hearing impaired Hi, I recently installed a small Asterisk based system using Snom 360 phones. One of the users is hard of hearing and claims that the sound is not clear and that he has a hard time hearing people and especially numbers on the phone. We went with the Snom's because I had heard they are good quality business phones. To my ears, the sound quality is just fine - Does anyone have any recommendations as to improving the sound quality for this user. Maybe using a different codec, or even a different phone brand that is known for helping the hearing challenged (as a last resort).
