Very nice mod, the only thing I worry a bit about is it looks as if it might be pushing on where the cord comes into the headset?

I fancy having a go at this I found the cheapo headset used to pinch the mic from http://www.sjgreatdeals.com/jasho98970.html but can’t find anywhere that sells it in the UK (or will deliver to here). I had a look around UK sites for something similar and came up with this which has a detachable mic (though it doesn’t show it) do all detachable mics tend to use the same connectors i.e. 3.5mm. http://www.pcworld.co.uk/martprd/pro...ADE-HS3/909377

The cord does help hold things in place, but there is no pressure put against it.

Thanks for the compliments guys! I'm currently planning a v.3 of this mod. Smaller and more discrete will be the goal.

I clicked on the thread expecting to see some desk mic sloppily taped to a pair of headphones but I have to say, what a pleasant surprise! Great work, craig.

Nicely done.

The only thing I personally would consider changing would be to use a mini-to-mini extension cable with a 90 degree on at least one end (the one you plug into the microphone).

Looks great!

So basically this is a 'hack version' of an improved version of the MMX300 . Ha.
