AI-Powered Voice Pickup and Professional Audio Performance The standout achievement is voice pickup. Built around EPOS AI™, the microphone system uses machine learning to scan the environment 32,000 times per second, isolating the user’s natural voice while proactively suppressing noise. EPOS quantifies the outcome in a way few rivals will: a word accuracy rate higher than 99 out of 100, capturing 99.5 of every 100 words correctly. The result is natural, full- bodied speech, free of the compression and robotic artefacts common in lesser models. As voice is increasingly used to brief AI assistants and trigger automated tasks, clean input is essential. BrainAdapt™ and Hybrid Adaptive ANC: Mastering Your Environment With listening fatigue becoming a real issue, the IMPACT 1000 is grounded in their BrainAdapt™ technology. It pairs advanced noise reduction with industry- leading microphone technology to lower the cognitive load of prolonged
communication, making it easier to hear what matters and stay focused through back-to-back meetings without the listening fatigue that quietly erodes concentration. Working in conjunction with this is the headset’s hybrid adaptive ANC. It reacts instantly to changes in background noise, adjusting to the ideal level of reduction and creating a personal zone of focus whatever your work environment.

Effortless Power and Sustainable Design The charging stand makes charging fast and simple with wireless charging in around 2.5 hours, or via USB-C cable in roughly 1.5 hours. A 10-minute quick charge returns up to 90 minutes of use. EPOS has matched this with plastic-free, FSC-certified packaging and a carry pouch made from grey RPET felt of recycled bottles. n
