October 6, 200817 yr Couldn't find a review or thread on this topic.Any recommendations / feedback appreciated.The headset would only be used for ATC and voice in multiplayer - I use a 5.1 surround sound system for all other audio, so don't need anything fancy that vibrates or imitates 3d sound etc.Must be USB connection though.Thanks in advanceDaz
October 6, 200817 yr The one I got is a Sennheiser - it has both USB and PC audio connectorshttp://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList....ame=CircumauralI can't seem to find the specific one but one of those should work, make sure they have usb | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |
October 6, 200817 yr As Ryan is up at the Univ. of North Dakota training in Air Traffic Control, I would put stock in the recommendation. That said, it appears the link goes to several headsets, and none with a microphone - any particular one preferred?Hows the training going, anyway? Do any VATSIMming?-Greg

October 7, 200817 yr The Sennheiser PC 165 headset is an excellent headset with a good noise cancelling mic. It can be plugged into your soundcard or into an USB port with the enclosed adapter. The headset is light and very comfortable. I use it with FSX and VoxATC with very good results.
October 24, 200817 yr Wow when did sennheiser start making usb stuff for computers, i'm used to hearing that name in the film world not in the sim world, very cool! Dean MountfordUltimate VFR
October 24, 200817 yr I have a cheap generic "Cyber Acoustics" USB headset - works well enough for the price.

October 24, 200817 yr Thanks for all you comments.I ended up getting the Sennheiser Pc166.Great quality audio but they get a little uncomfortable if used for more than an hour imho.Regards allDaz
