Um... Hello. To be concise, I'm looking for a headphone+microphone combination to replace my Siberia V2s. I stumbled upon the Samson SR850s which in the headphone buyers' guide were very highly praised for their price. (Opinions? I enjoy high-quality audio and listen mostly to metal but also calm, instrumental music.) That still leaves me lacking a microphone though.
Now here's where it gets particular: I need a microphone solution that picks up my voice, but not much else. I need to be able to use it with Voice Activation enabled on TeamSpeak, etc. so that it will never activate from keyboard rattle and mouse clicks while easily activating from my voice. This is really important for my (voice-intensive) gaming, and it's why using my Snowball iCe or other such table-top microphone is out of the question. (Plus they make me want to slouch down to talk to them...) Less essential but still preferable qualities are decent sound quality and a low level of white noise.
I was recommended the Zalman ZM-Mic 1 which is about 10 bucks and has great audio quality, but I would almost definitely need some sort of DIY-solution for it because it's a cord clip-on mic and I always keep my headphones' cord behind my shoulder rather than running down my torso. I was also recommended the Mod mic but it costs $50... 'Nuff said.
