    Headset recommendations?

    Looking to get a decent headset that's not really expensive. I don't need a mic on it but it wouldn't hurt. Any recos?

    are really really good if you can get them at the $99 price, unless of course that's still too expensive; I'm a bit of an audiophile so I wouldn't spend any less on headphones.

    I'm on my second pair (first pair R.I.P because of the damn english bulldog I have. <3 him still though) Never had the earphone go out on me on either pair. IMO, very reliable

    I buy headsets from Bestbuy, and when that one breaks I buy a new one and return the broken pair in the same package a week or two later

    So nice of you to fuck up the entire economic cycle for the rest of us.

    Ended up getting these at RadioShack: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications ... 5&CatId=42

    Excellent sound quality and mic pickup, USB so it bypasses my HD Audio problems COMPLETELY (no more double reboots for sound WOO!).. only problem I have is that they're a bit tight (they rest on the ear, not around it) so after a couple hours I gotta take 'em off.
