Let's talk headsets. What do you use? Do you like it? I'm in the market for something new.

Sennheiser HD555 and a tabletop Logitech USB microphone (surprisingly amazing with great noise reduction)

I blew up the capacitors on my video card. So went and got a new cideo card. I noticed headsets on the way out. At first I was just thinking "Ah! New headphones!" but then I realized how handy a headset would be and my mic would stop being in the way on my desk.


So, I do not have a headset. I can't find one that meets my requirements.


Small, like child size

Lightweight

Cord on one side only

Goes over head, not behind ears

Foam ears, not the padded things


Most headsets are too big, too heavy and give me head aches.


I'm currently using little child's headphones from Sony. They'er pink. I almost gott he Hello Kitty spill proof keyboard too. Saw that on my way out but I didn't want to give up my gmaing keyboard. Anyone know of a Hello Kitty spill poof gaming keyboard?

Yup I use logitech as well. They still sell them on their website. Was about 60 bucks. Sometimes logitech does free shipping too, got my last order under 24 hours.

Sennheiser w/mic. Full size but comfortable and the mic is great as well as the sound quality. Padded - can we worn for hours.

Right now i use the Plantronics Gamecom 777 5.1 surround sound set. Comfy, sound awesome. Been having some issues with vent that i think are related to the headset. The cord is way, way too short. If i dont get them for X-mas, i will be buying the Logitech G930 wireless headset shortly after.
