Subject: [cisco-voip] Audio Quality on Latest Gen Phones

 Just got in some 79x2 and 79x5 phones. On all of these sets when calling Unity or phone to phone the audio sounds very different then the previous phones. The only way I can describe it is as very "bassy". If you swap in a handset from an older phone such as a 7941 it sound "normal".

 Anybody else run into this? I think I would get a lot of complaints from my users if I roll these out. The audio just sounds wrong.

Thanks!
Steve
