New Headset Recommendations

[ROVZombie]

Hey everyone,

 

I currently have a set of Logitech H800 overear headphones for things like skype, and i was wondering if anyone knew a pair that hit similar features:

- very small usb dongle

- wireless

- has boom mic

 

the H800 are bluetooth although i could care less about that, im more interested in those things, a usb wireless overear headset with a mic and a small dongle for the computer. anyone have any suggestions, that hit these or at least close? Thanks in advance.

I think Astro might have what your looking for

Astro seems nice, but is there anything.. cheaper? like 100ish, hopefully less? Again im not looking for killer audio, just mobility mostly

Watching this. I am looking for the exact same thing at pretty much the same budget. Ended up buying Creative SoundBlaster EVO Wireless's last year as a bluetooth 'gaming' headset and they are god awful (The sound & mic doesnt work at the same time in wireless mode unless you accept AWFUL sound quality).

 

To be honest at this point I would settle for a normal sized USB dongle but a lot of wireless headsets seem to be coming with full on docking stations which suck for hefting about in a laptop bag.

Just to raise some points for consideration, you'll get more for your money if you don't get wireless ones.  Same can be said for the USB dongle - those things (because they act as your sound card, replacing the job of your onboard audio) add cost to the setup and often sound terrible because they're very cheap DACs.
