FAQs

What is the single best audio upgrade for a home office?

A USB condenser microphone. It transforms how you sound on calls and costs as little as £40. The Fifine K669 and Rode NT-USB Mini are both excellent.

Do I need desk speakers for a home office?

If you listen to music while working or take calls on speaker, yes. Even a £60 pair of powered speakers sounds dramatically better than laptop speakers.

Does acoustic treatment help in a home office?

Foam panels or a desk-mounted acoustic screen reduce echo on calls and improve how your microphone captures your voice — especially in hard-floored rooms.
