Avee Office series microphones
USD$158,00 – USD$159,00
The Avee Office is a Bluetooth-based wireless microphone that can be ‘plugged on’ to your premium noise-canceling headset and makes it a silent sensation in your ears as well as out from you.
When you are in a phone conversation, Zoom, or Teams meeting, the Avee Office microphone only picks up your voice.
Virtually all background noise is blocked out from you: talking colleagues, happy kids, cats & dogs, and even keyboard clicks and coffee machines.
And the noise-canceling headset blocks out virtually all the background noise to you as well.
The Avee Office series of microphones are based on our aviation series of microphones where blocking out background cockpit noise is an actual & crucial necessity.

The Avee Office – overview
During the four years since Avee started shipping aviation microphones, we have constantly been improving our products for the aviation market.
We are thrilled to announce that we are now introducing the Avee Office series of microphones – aiming at the office market.
The Avee Office for the Bose® QC35 start shipping in January 2022 !
The Avee Office is a Bluetooth-based wireless microphone that can be ‘plugged on’ to your premium noise-canceling headset and makes it a silent sensation out from you as well.
When you are in a phone conversation or a Teams meeting, the Avee Office microphone only picks up your voice, and all background noise is blocked out: talking colleagues, happy kids, cats & dogs, and even keyboard clicks and coffee machines.
And we dare say this is a perfect product for gamers.
The Avee Office series of microphones are based on our aviation series of microphones where blocking out background cockpit noise is an actual & crucial necessity.
How it works
When you plug in the Avee Office on your headset, the built-in Bluetooth in your headset is disconnected, and the Avee Office connects to your phone and PC/Mac via Bluetooth.
The microphone that is placed right in front of your mouth is picking up your speech only, and its position can easily be adjusted.
The Avee Office is kept securely in place with the same magnetic connection used on our aviation microphones.
Side tone – listen in
When using the Avee Office, you will get side-tone – your own voice – in the headphone, and the level of the side-tone can easisly be adjusted from the Avee Office.
This feature is crucial because the built-in ANR in the headset effectively blocks most of the audio from outside – including your own voice.

- Pause & play supported from the Avee Office
- Listening to music is indicated with a green ‘breathing’ light on the Avee Office.
In phone or computer teams meetings

Getting started
Avee Office – Getting Started
Tusen takk (which is thank you in Norwegian ) – for purchasing the Avee Office microphone !
We hope it gives you as much joy using it – as it gave us designing it – and using it in our office!
In this leaflet, we will show you how to prepare and connect the Avee Office to your headset – and how to use it.
How to prepare your headphones
The Avee microphone is using an adhesive magnetic stripe to attach safely to your Bose® or Sony® headset.
This solution makes it easy to attach and detach the Avee microphone from the headphone in seconds, and the Avee microphone stays safely in place whenever it is connected to the headphones.
Please follow these instructions to install the magnetic stripe properly to your headphones.
You can also view a video on how to do it by checking out this link.
Step 1: Using the cleaning wipe supplied, clean the base of your headphones including the area surrounding the input jack. Ensure that you remove any residue that is adhered to the headphones. Let dry for a minute or two.
Step 2: We are now preparing to transfer the magnetic stripe to the headphones using the Avee microphone as a jig. Let the magnetic stripe be attached to the Avee microphone, and remove the adhesive stripe protective backing from the magnetic stripe. The magnetic stripe should stay on the Avee microphone and the adhesive side should be facing the headphone.
Step 3: Guide the add-on to the base of the left headphone and firmly press it in place for minimum 30 seconds. Once attached, carefully unplug it to reveal the adhesive magnetic stripe being transferred to the headphones.
Press firmly on the tape to ensure all edges of the tape have adhered to the headphones.
Optimally the adhesive on the magnetic stripe needs a 24 hrs curing time.
That is all – the Avee Office microphone is ready to be used!

The Avee Office User Guide
AveeOffice UserGuide
In this guide you find all commands that can be issued to Avee Office via the left and right key on top of the Avee Office.
The basic function of the left and right key is::
- Left key (closest to the microphone):
Switch on & off, play & pause music, accept and decline calls.
Please note thatthese functions are also available on the connected phone and/or Mac/PC. - Right key
Adjust headset volume up & down.
Please note that you can also adjust the headset volume from the connected phone or Mac/PC. - The rotary wheel
Adjust sidetone – your own voice level in the headset.
It is extremely important that you can hear your own voice when talking on the phone or being in a Zoom/Teams meeting.
If you can not hear you own voice in the headset, or the headset level of your own voice is to low – most people will start talking louder.
This is a non-wanted situation and it can easily be avoided by increasing the level of your own voice in the headphones.
This is easily done from the adjustment wheel found on the bottom side of the Avee Office.
