Alternatively, you can try looking for one of those old Mic Apple
used to sell or include with the Mac.

I've tried numerous applications for sound over the past year, but

Does anyone know a good set of stereo headphones with a mic, that
would work with my B&W? Recommendations? Especially for
inexpensive sets?
The built in mic input on most or all Power Macs takes a high level
(1V) signal whereas most mics put out a low level signal (1-10 mV).
So your mic might be working just fine but the signal is too low.
You need a mice pre-amp to boost the signal high enough. Griffin
Technologies had something that did it IIRC.
