Rating: - Plantronics DSP400 Headset

Using the two plugs was just as easy.

The sound quality of the sample using this headset was amazing. Background noise was practically eliminated and it had an almost studio quality to it. Reading several reviews on other sites implied that this was normal performance for this headset. The final test(s) were with recording and chatting online. ... Read More
Rating: - Great Microphone
Very clear recording sound. Works well with my voice recognition software and for podcasts and skype as well. My only complaint is that the cord is too long.
