<div class="IPBDescription">Where do I get one?</div> Does anyone know where (preferably in the UK) I can get a headset mic that I can use with the headphones I already have? All the mics I've seen come attached to headphones.
A lot of people will just buy a cheap headset and wear that around their neck, with some actual headphones on their ears.
It works. You look like a goof, but it works <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Buy some cheap $2-$3 headphones with microphone and wear them with good standalone headphones..
See, I think the problem is that there aren't any headsets attached to <i>really</i> good headphones. You'd think, with all the games coming out now with built in voice chat, one of the headset/headphone makers would jump on that market. I know I would drop 75-100 bucks on a sick set of cans with a mic attached.
