Re: [H] Good headset/mic?
My Sony wireless TV headset has a adapter with headphone jack on one end an RCA
jacks on the other and can plug in either way. Headphone jacks in the Sony and
RCA to the TV. Hooked up like this gives me separate volume control from the
TV. With the phone jack in the TV and RCA in the Sony the TV sound is OFF. Good
for late night :{)
B4 I went wireless I used to just use a wired headset FWIW

[H] Good headset/mic?
I need a new set of headphones for my PC and was wondering what the list uses. I game a lot with them on so as not to disturb the wife/baby so good sound is a priority, but I also use Skype and the like a lot for work so I would really like a set with a good microphone as well. USB preferred, but not required. Somewhere around $100 would be nice.

Re: [H] Good headset/mic?
Been using Motorola HT820 here for 2 months like them alot. Caveat to BT seems to be either your in A2DP mode with HQ stereo OR you're in headset mode with mic mono voice quality audio. Haven't taken the time to read up on this, but assuming it's a BT limitation. Brian Weeden wrote: I need a new set of headphones for my PC and was wondering what the list uses.

Re: [H] Good headset/mic?
RCA audio out is line level, so it has to go into device with an amp. There should be BT audio streamers that take RCA jacks or you can use RCA to 3.5MM adapter.
