The Telex HR-1 is a single-sided, medium-weight passive noise reduction headset with dynamic noise-canceling microphones. The headset has a noise reduction rating of 21dB; suitable for use in a moderately noisy environment. The ergonomic moleskin-covered headband design distributes the ear cushion pressure evenly over the entire ear with no pressure points, ensuring hours of comfortable wear. An added advantage of this headset design is that it folds into compact form for ease of transport and storage.
