http://www.marvgolden.com/headsets/adapter...CFQHllAodW0z5rwI do not own the adapter or a David Clark headset (I use Peltors in the real world). You can purchase a regular computer headset which is a fraction of the price and the computer headset is made for computer use.Good Luck,Jim

thanks for that link.I have a normal computer headset, but the quality is very bad. also I have problems talking to others with it, its hard for the vatsim guys to hear me. So i thought, hey why not use that :)only thing is, its just a big headset lol.. I wish I coudl find a 'good' one with just 1 ear piece

Why would a DC be any better?Just play with the configs on your computer or try another pair of computer headsets.

Actually, a good aircraft headset is better suited for online ATC and other voice comms than most computer headsets. The high quality acft headsets (such as Telex, DC etc) generally use mic elements that incorporate tapered bandpass filters which accentuate the upper middle audible freq range, which results in improved readability at the cost of less bass and a generally lower fidelity sound. Bad if you're listening to music...good when trying to punch the useful part of an audio voice signal through the noise.Likewise, the headset speakers are optimized for the upper-mid ranges of the audible spectrum.But to use the high-impedance acft headsets with a PC, you need an adapter with an audio transformer that matches the headset to the low impedance input/ouput of the PC audio card.RegardsBob ScottATP IMEL Gulfstream II-III-IV-VSantiago de Chile

Thats why I suggested playing with the configs of the computer.
