Just wanted to know if there is a particular headset that is best used when using the Ventrillo Server. Ive seen a bunch on ebay but I;m not sure which one, I was leaning toward the logitech lightweight one. any help is appreciated,
Thanks
Bert

depends on what you want and how much you want to spend. Logitech makes some nice ones, but there are LOTS of other great companies to use too. Get some prices and price ranges and you can get some really nice features. There are some Nice 5.1 surround sound ones out there too,

If all you want is a quick fix, I use a Logitech set -- $15 at WalMart. (Works fairly well for me -- sure, I can't hear like Superman, but it gets the job done.)

$10 at radioshack. Cheap, but like Jeff said "gets the job done"

I use Altec Lansing AHS 502. They were about $40.00 at best buy. Although this is the second set I got where the mic broke. Luckliy I bought the service plan. I just need to get down there and exchange them.

I went out and got the altec lansing ahs602 - they were great for one week and, then, I could hear myself speak thru the mike in the headset ... and no one else could hear me.. I sent them back for replacement. Meanwhile, we bought the zalman 5.1 surround sound ones. They work fine (you need to buy a mic) ... comparing the two, the Zalmans are more comfortable (fit around your ears completely) ... I heard more detail sounds in the ahs602's than the zalman's. Am I taking this game too seriously?

I had some Zalmans and then a plastic part broke on the hinge that connects the earphone to the headband. Tried to get them to support them via warranty - no go.
Bought some AHS602. Things I like - integrated mic and ability to control sound. Things I don't like - ear pieces are too small, I can't hear sounds as well, and the things chews up batteries.
I have since gotten someone at Zalman to warranty repair my original headset. I can't wait to get them back!
Anybody want to buy a pair of AHS602s cheap?

I use Ezonics USB 5.1 headphones. They have a built in USB sound card and sound OUTSTANDING! Plus they are great on laptops as they have thier own soundcard. I bought a Zalmans mic for them and it all works super.

Hey Joy, Paypal is free bro. It's like an online bank. You deposit money in your own account. Then you can make purchases online using the money that is in your account. Go to www.paypal.com

Joy,
Tell you what, let me get my Zalman's back - will probably take a few weeks. Then, you donate $30 to the server fund on my behalf (using PayPal) and send me your address. I'll ship them to you for free.
So, you get a $55 set of slightly used headphones, the clan gets $30, I get to spend $10 or so for shipping and get to feel good!
How does that sound?
