What is the cause of voice echoes and is there any way to eliminate this problem?
In a voice telephone call, an echo occurs when you hear your own voice repeated. Problems with echo usually originate on the other end of your call. This is due to latency on your Internet connection, which causes the delayed playback of your voice. There are two ways echo can occur: • Electrically through poor quality phone cables. • Acoustically (feedback) through sound waves between the phone’s speaker and microphone. Try asking the other party to lower the phone volume in order to reduce the feedback of your voice. As a last resort, try different telephone sets to reduce echo, as the quality of the telephone is important and some telephones have special echo-cancellation technology.
