<div class="IPBDescription">What do you recomend?</div> I'm looking for a good pair of headphone that have a mic atached to them. Does anyone have any idea of good pairs that work with HL voice communication?

    Plantronics and Labtec make good, relatively cheap headset mics. I'm using a Labtec Axis 505, and haven't had a single problem with it. Mic is *extremely* clear as well in HL voicecomm.

    i forgot which one i have...it works fine though. it was like 12-17 bucks (i don't even remember).. it's a purdy silver one..

    just don't buy the cheapest ones cuz those'll break on ya.

    Mine's the Koss Optimus Pro-50MX. Cost about forty bucks, as Radio Shack was closing them out. Great noise cancelling mic, very comfortable, essentially a studio-quality boom mike headset. The only problems with 'em are that the cables are a little thin (I'm worried about accidentally snapping the bundle one day, but I'm very rough on my gear) and the material used to cover the foam cushioning... a really thin plastic stuff, breaks down within a half-year and starts flaking/tearing off. Which isn't a problem as the foam itself is very high-quality even without the thin covering, and shows no signs of degradation.

    $20 labtec something I got at wal-mart.
    Works like a charm except when I turn the mic to mute and forget about it. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    my labtec mike was over a year old, the mic part wouldn't stay up righ afer awhile. THats the only problem that I had with it until I crushed and cut the wires with the foot of my chair and then accidently stepped on it when I got up one time (Im hard on stuff)

    I just bought a headset from Radio Shack. Been working fine for a good 6 months. Had to buy this one as a replacement for one of the same kind because I kept yanking the cord.

    Plantronics Audio .90 from Amazon.com. I highly recommend it. It's $28.00 and free shipping.
