Hi, My headphone's plug broke off and got stuck in the front headphone port. Can I stick my other pair's plug into the microphone port and switch it so I can hear through that port? Does that make sense? :confused: Thanks

Thanks for the extensive replies. My HD555 is in the mail now. :D

Will the HD555 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductReview.aspx?Item=N82E16826106392) fit in the green spot of my computer (I know that sounds newbish, I can't help it) -- how about fitting in my iPod? Edit: Another thing I noticed -- it doesn't have a volume control. It would be nice if they...

Yea, but which one do I get? There are a few models. Excuse my ignorance. Is this the BEST one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826106381 ...or aside from that, what other non-usb headset should I be looking at for less than $150? should I get the Sennheiser HD555 + a...

What's the difference between the Sennheiser PC 150 / 155 / and 166? Wouldn't the 166 be the best one since 166 > *?

Ok, so non-USB -- what's the best $150 or under HEADSET (WITH MIC) I can get? cheers

If the green/pink ports are 1/8, then yes, I do -- but that's not the point. I'm assuming the onboard sound card is junk compared to the USB one.

I can't be bothered installing a sound card (or dealing with any hardware, to be honest) -- my computer is basically in pieces as it is, seriously. I plan to get rid of it and get a laptop before I head off to school, so I'd rather have something that's not dependent on a sound card.

Because the only sound card I have is onboard.

Ok, How about the Sennheiser PC166 USB? Why is the PC155 USB so much more popular? I'm assuming since 166 > 155, the 166 are better? Thanks

None of the beyerdynamic ones are USB.

So what would be better: Icemat Siberia USB Soundcard http://www.icemat.com/products/icematsiberia/icemat_siberia_usb_soundcard_ with a Steelsound 5hv2 (not USB) http://www.steelseries.com/products/steel_sound/steelsound_5h_v2/information Or: Steelsound 5hv2...

Thanks for the tip, amromousa. When you say 'not awesome either' -- do you know of a better USB headset (that's under $200)?

I'm looking for a USB headset (I recently broke my Logitech). I'll spend up to $200 on it. (really hoping to spend about $100, but hey, if it's extra special...maybe) The only thing I could find that's USB w/ a mic (headset) is: http://www.steelseries.com/980 I couldn't find anything that...
