Hey,

I need a decent headset, preferably USB. I want to use it for VoIP (i.e. Skype, VATSIM, MSN) and for listening to music. So it needs a good quality Mic and a decent pair of cans.

Also, needs to be compatible with Windows and Mac (yes, I said Mac LOL)
Around £25?

Thanks

The best USB headset (or any headset I've ever had for that matter) is my Microsoft LifeChat LX-3000.

http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/webcam_communications/internet_headsets_phones/devices/3621&cl=gb,enThey are in his price range if he looks elsewhere but that top headset is meant to be absolutely dreadful, I haven't heard a single good thing about it other than 'Irritating' and a 'Big weight on my ears'. I tried to find a decent headset for £25 a little while ago as my Logitech's were always going wrong but I ended up settling for a Senn heiser headset and a Logitech USB Microphone.

Be sure to run it through with me if you get a Logitech headset as I've gone through most of their range :P

I got the Skype Sennheiser Headset. I think it's great value for money which is £25. It's got good sound and voice quality with a part to turn sound off/on/louder/lower as usual - Go, get it nao.

I bought that exact headset for £15.99 on Amazon yesterday, I hope it's good.

There are 3 things Microsoft make correctly: Webcams, Mice and Headsets.
There are countless things they do not make correctly: Keyboards and Operating Systems.

I have a LifeChat headset connected to my Mac at my Dad's and it's awesome.

Shame they have the largest market share for operating systems then

I have some cheap 20 quid mikomi headset :P
