About this product
The Kensington Hi-Fi Headphones with Microphone form a wired stereo headset for video meetings, language labs, online testing, and contact center work on almost any computer or tablet with an analog audio port. The black over-the-head design pairs a padded adjustable headband with circumaural ear cups fitted with foam ear pads wrapped in a soft leatherette cover, and the closed-back cups apply passive resistance to hold back background noise without batteries or active electronics. The most distinctive element is the flexible boom microphone, which rotates up to 270 degrees so it can be positioned in front of either side of the mouth or swung up and out of the way for listening only, and its noise-cancelling element concentrates on speech rather than surrounding room sound. Audio is reproduced by 1.57-inch drivers that measure 40 millimeters across, delivering full stereo separation for recorded lessons, conference calls, and media playback. Maximum output is limited to 94dB to encourage safer listening across long sessions in schools and shared offices. The 6-foot cable ends in a single 3.5mm plug that works with the combined headphone and microphone jack found on laptops, Chromebooks, tablets, and desktop sound cards, so setup requires no drivers, software, or adapters. The wipeable leatherette surfaces can be cleaned between shifts in shared labs and call rooms. The headset measures 7.9 inches wide and 11.2 inches deep, is compatible with Windows, macOS, and ChromeOS, and carries a 1-year limited warranty.

Delivers exceptional sound with powerful 40 mm drivers for deep bass and wider dynamic range. Padded headband and plush sealed earpads for comfortable use. Flexible earpads enable single-sided monitoring capability. Gold-plated plug stands up to heavy use.

Experience clear audio for video meetings with a simple plug-and-play USB-C connection and a noise-canceling mic. Rigid left-side mic boom is moveable and can be tucked out of the way when not in use. Handy inline controls let you adjust volume or mute without interrupting calls. Fine-tuned drivers deliver enhanced digital audio for meetings, music, and more.

The Kensington Classic USB-C Headphone is a wired on-ear stereo headset built for schools, hybrid offices, and shared desks where modern notebooks and tablets no longer include an analog audio jack. The black frame pairs a lightweight polymer headband with an adjustable slider and foam ear cushions covered in wipeable leatherette, so the same unit can be cleaned and handed to the next person in a classroom cart or hot-desk pool. The reversible USB-C connector is the defining feature, seating in either orientation and carrying digital audio directly from the host device so playback bypasses analog circuitry and avoids the hiss that can accompany a 3.5mm connection. Sound comes from 40mm dynamic drivers tuned for deep bass and a wide dynamic range, which keeps narration intelligible on recorded lessons while still handling music and video content. Maximum output is limited to 94dB to support safer listening for students and for staff who wear a headset through a full shift. The 6-foot cable gives enough slack to reach a docking station, monitor port, or tower placed under a desk without tugging at the ear cups. Setup is driverless, with native recognition across Windows, macOS, and ChromeOS, so technology teams can deploy one model across a mixed fleet of laptops, desktops, and Chromebooks without installing software. The closed-back on-ear cups hold back a measure of ambient room noise, which helps in busy computer labs and open-plan spaces, and the lightweight build keeps pressure low. Kensington supports the headset with a 1-year limited warranty.
