Good over-ear stereo jack headsets? by prashker on 04-20-2010 at 10:36 PM

Looking for a nice pair of over-ear headset.

Obviously this means 2 jacks, 1 microphone 1 speakers.

Any suggestions :cheesy:?

I have a pair of Plantronics Gamecom 377s that I picked up on sale for $40. I like them and they were cheap at the time.

Do you do much gaming in those?

How are they for wearing for extended periods of time?

According to the review there the sound quality isn't that good :p

I currently have an LX-3000 from Microsoft, but they are USB. I basically want an equivalent in quality, but stereo jack versions :p

Why are you specifically looking for stereo jacks? With a PC full of electrical interference you are usually better of using USB than analog stereo jacks.
