Logitech headphones that go round the back are arguably the most uncomfortable and poor performing headsets out there...

Re: A good MIC...
I have this headset, an Altec Lansing Steelsound. Comfortable, effective.
I'd just rather not use a headset. Unnecessary.

Re: A good MIC...
I've gone through a variety of headsets, but on my last cycle I switched to the aforementioned home-made mic out of your old mic,
and bought a nice pair of sennheiser cordless headphones.
(btw...I re-recommend that you do that mic conversion. 5 min will get you a very servicable mic until you decide on something fancier)
Having the cordless is great, and you don't always need a mic.
Conversely, sometimes you need only the mic if you're using speakers.
Having them separate has been a much better experience.
There were cordless headsets, but nothing affordable with good reviews.|TG-9th| BBgun. - I'll put your eye out, kid.

Re: A good MIC...
I've been thinking of getting a new headset. Any ideas for an affordable combo?

Re: A good MIC...
I will say to avoid Plantronics. I've returned about a dozen of them to Best Buy because the cord ALWAYS wears out and one earpiece would stop working.

If you're looking for Surround sound and high quality then go for something like the Medusa 5.1's that are out there.

That site is also a great place to look for headsets, but they don't always have the best prices (I also believe they have a ".com" site if you're in the US)Anger is a gift - Malcolm X

Re: A good MIC...
I've been a fan of my Sennheiser PC 155 headset for a few years now. They're oh so comfortable, binaural, noise-filtering mic, and I only had to RMA one pair for an annoying crackling in the left pod on really low bass frequencies. They've survived B.C., Venezuela, Belize, and now Madagascar so when I look to replace these guys I'll be looking to Sennheiser again.

I suspect he means wireless with a USB dongle. Originally Posted by SharinganTH1422

Re: A good MIC...
My friend's USB dongle was broken for Wii Rock Band. I could not stop laughing when he said " My dongle is broken. I need to get a replacement dongle."
