A headset configured to process audio signals from a first pair and a second pair of microphones arranged in a respective first and second end-fire configuration aimed towards the mouth of a user wearing the headset in a normal position, comprising: - a first pair of microphones (101,102) outputting a first pair of microphone signals and a second pair of microphones (103, 104) outputting a second pair of microphone signals; wherein the microphones of the first pair of microphones are arranged with a first mutual distance and the microphones of the second pair of microphones are arranged with a second mutual distance, and wherein the first pair of microphones is arranged at a distance from the second pair of microphones that is greater than the first mutual distance and the second mutual distance at least when the headset is worn in the normal position with the first pair of microphones arranged on one side of the user's head and the second pair of microphones arranged on the other side of the user's head; - a first beamformer and a second beamformer configured to respectively receive the first pair and second pair of microphone signals and perform respective near-field beamforming focussed on the mouth of a user wearing the headset; - a third beamformer configured to dynamically combine, by weighing, beamformed signals (X L; X R) output from the first beamformer and the second beamformer into a combined signal (X C); wherein the third beamformer is configured to compute a respective noise level of the beamformed signals (X L; X R) and to weigh weighs the signal with a lowest noise level among the beamformed signals (X L; X R) with a highest weight into the combined signal; - a noise reduction unit configured to filter the combined signal (X C) from the third beamformer by a time-varying filter. - a first pair of microphones (101,102) outputting a first pair of microphone signals and a second pair of microphones (103, 104) outputting a second pair of microphone signals; wherein the microphones of the first pair of microphones are arranged with a first mutual distance and the microphones of the second pair of microphones are arranged with a second mutual distance, and wherein the first pair of microphones is arranged at a distance from the second pair of microphones that is greater than the first mutual distance and the second mutual distance at least when the headset is worn in the normal position with the first pair of microphones arranged on one side of the user's head and the second pair of microphones arranged on the other side of the user's head; - a first beamformer and a second beamformer configured to respectively receive the first pair and second pair of microphone signals and perform respective near-field beamforming focussed on the mouth of a user wearing the headset; - a third beamformer configured to dynamically combine, by weighing, beamformed signals (X L; X R) output from the first beamformer and the second beamformer into a combined signal (X C); wherein the third beamformer is configured to compute a respective noise level of the beamformed signals (X L; X R) and to weigh weighs the signal with a lowest noise level among the beamformed signals (X L; X R) with a highest weight into the combined signal; - a noise reduction unit configured to filter the combined signal (X C) from the third beamformer by a time-varying filter.
