I don’t know about you, but headsets are something that I spend a pile of time on. Gettin. a headset tha. fits well. sounds good, and has basics like a long enough cord, is not always easy. 

I’ve always been a fan of Plantronics sets.  They tend to be a little pricy, but they also tend to be very good quality.  My dog ate my last one a little while ago (she’s a puppy, and chews). Recently I’ve been using the new .Audio 340 Behind-the-Head Multimedia Headset. 

The 340 is sleekly styled, and at $29.95 relatively inexpensive.  With an 8 foot cable, I can wear it while sitting at my desk and still move around easily.  The integrated mute button and volume controls have a convenient clip on the back as well, so they can be easily fixed to my shirt.  And it’s comfortable as can be.

Most importantly, 340 has deep rich sound, and does a very credible job of reproducing bass tones.  You could easily use these headphones for VoIP calls (as I primarily do), or listening to music, or playing games.  They’re that good.

What could be better.  The biggest single addition would be a USB version.  Then I could hea. Skyp. ring through my PC speakers, and use the headphones for the conversation.  It’s a small complaint.
