  1. Just out of curiosity,

    Has anyone had any experience with this headset? It's apparently designed to be used for cells (duh! :p) as well as ipods , pcs, macs, etc. But has anyone used this for things such as ventrilo? My headset is ridiculously uncomfortable for me at the moment and I stumbled upon this out of sheer boredom...

    I've spoken to a reseller here in Irvine and he says that he believes it'll work..

    Thanks in advance!

    Why bluetooth? you would need to find a BT adapter for your PC(unless you're using a laptop) with the audio gateway. If you're just looking for sound and aren't one of those audio nazi's Sony has a set of headphones that are corded and clip over your ear and are very comfortable, I think I paid $14 for mine. http://www.sonystyle.com/webapp/wcs...51&storeId=10151&langId=-1&productId=11037422
    If you happen to be one of those Audio nazi's I would recommend

    I think I paid $114 for mine and love them

    For whatever that's worth.
     
  3. well if it were just for my pc.. that's a different story but it's also for my cell so I'm gonna try and knock out two things with one device. And I am an audiophile to a degree.. I blame me working for the BOSE corp for a few years.. :p

  4. good god. You really want to spend 150+ bucks on a headset? I know with electronics you get what you pay for, but come on, that is a bit ridiculous imo.

    I have been using a 40$ USB logitech headset that goes over my ears, and sits quite comfortably and I havent had any issues with it. Went through 5 pairs before I found one that wasn't total crap or broke or what not.

    NC buds? You're going to go very deaf very quickly.
     
  6. I just wanna make sure that ya'll know that this is to fulfill several things and NOT just vent right? Besides the question that I was posing was to see if anyone had tried this in as far as this application meaning for vent. It was NOT to discuss whether or not it's a quality product. I'm gonna assume that the answer is no and since that's the case.. thanks for your time.. ^.^

    BT headsets work fine on PC. We had one person use her's for VoIP (not Skype but something similar).
     
  8. ahh ok.. thanks EF2. I'm just used to using headsets so when I perusing the net, I saw and thought.. "Hmm.. wonder if it would work as a headset." Sadly.. I don't think it would due to function...

    regardless.. thanks for the info and insight.. I wasn't planning on buying it.. just was wondering how it sounded.
