Abstract
A collar band supports a boom-mounted microphone that may be selectively positioned on either the right or left side of the user's head. Adjustable neck pads are mounted to the opposite ends of the collar band for added comfort. The collar band may be resized to fit the neck of the user. The collar microphone may be worn for extended periods of time without becoming uncomfortable. A cradle assembly conveniently supports and stores the microphone when it is not in use.
