Single circumaural ear Headset?

TVwazhere

Requirements: Good mic sound quality (office level), okay to decent driver sound quality, closed back. 3.5mm jack (combo or split, doesnt matter but preferably split) and compatible with PC. Only one earpiece, I need to keep the second ear open. Comfortable to wear for 8 hours a day; On-Ear style headsets have never really felt good to wear for extended periods so I'm avoiding those as much as possible.

Usage: For work calls and mixing in podcast/music via input mixer.

Wants: Understated appearance to blend in with office environment, Left or right side wearing option, mutable mic (via button or boom arm)

Price: Preferably under $100

 

So far I've found this which is my primary pick:

Datavideo HP1, $79 on B&H Video

Other amazon options include:

My ideal headset is a Sennheiser PC373D (G4me ONE/PC37X) with only one ear cup, which the datavideo HP1 seems to be, but comfort and in/out sound qualities are unknown to me, so I'm looking for additional suggestions or feedback. 

 

TIA
