I have a buddy who might be getting a podcasting job, and he's looking into some nice headphone/mic combo's. He wanted me to find him some Sennheiser HMD25-1's. Headphones I know, but this delves a bit out of my comfort zone, so I'm throwing it out to you guys/gals. If anyone knows of a good set similiar to the HMD25-1's, or if they know if the HMD25-1's are great/good/horrible (doubtful), let me know. Before you ask, I don't know the budget, but the best price I've found on the HMD25-1's is about 340$. I don't know if that's too much, or the right range, or what. All pertinent info will be appreciated. Thanks.

are you talking about a headset?

or are you talking about earbuds that work as a mic in line-in encoding?

Headset, the HDM25-1 are presumably the HD25 with a mic attached. I see these a lot, and they seem to be the standard NFL announcer headsets.

Hi...

Yes, I am talking about a headset with microphone.

there's a link to the ones in question.

About the announcer comment, I've heard that as well. I was just hoping to find something nice for my friend that was cheaper than 350ish.

Just get a good set of phones and a good separate mic.

The Beyer DT234 Pro may be worth a look, the headset version of the DT231. These cost about twice as much as the DT231 here. Otherwise I agree that separate cans and mic may be worth considering, particularly if close miking distances are not required (i.e. quieter environment).

my logitech usb mic sounds great with my pc for game communication, and it only costs ~$30 US.
