$4.14 shipped stereo headset with boom mic (onvia.com, no coupons)

[cmv]

AC-200 @ onvia.com for $4.14 shipped!

The PCvoiceLINK?, AC-200 is a stereo headset mic. It uses our special noise canceling technology. This amplified microphone element can be used for speech recognition and VoIP (voice over the Internet) applications.

Every AC-200 on the web that I've seen so far has been black. Cyber Acoustics makes this head set but I'm not sure if it is OEM or branded. Here is their website (can't link directly to the AC-200 page due to sucky frame addled pages):

cyber-acoustics.com

Here is a Yahoo store that has a picture of it:

store.yahoo.com/pcsound/597841.html

This is a hot deal (to me at least) because everyone else wants to charge you at least $4 S/H. I'm looking forward to using this in Yahoo Messenger chat and all the over applications that support voice. Maybe a little Roger Wilco too with Counter-Strike .

EDIT: removed embedded PriceGrabber part of URL

UPDATE: if you search at onvia.com for "cyber acoustic" you'll find some other head sets too like the ac-200r for almost twice as much as this one. I don't know what the difference is...

The sound on this thing is suck dude. No clear treble. For Dialpad, it's OK.

Here is Onvia's selection of Headphones and Microphones

I've always had good luck with Labtec products and am about to order an AM-252 for $8.47 with free shipping.

could someone please post that best one with dialpad. The people I call still hear echo sounds with my current one. thanks

Cool find thx - I was just getting ready to mail a headset to my folks. This one doesn't cost much more than I would have paid on shipping alone for my headset, minus all the hassle!

why is there no images at onvia? that's poopy. :|

acedaddy323, they are likely hearing echoes because you have your speakers on. When you speak, your voice goes through your computer and out your speakers, where it is again picked up by your microphone and sent again after a short delay, resulting in an echo. Turning off the speakers and just using the microphone and headphones usually fixes this. If you are already doing this, then maybe it's time to upgrade to a better set.

Well I ordered 3 of the ac-200 ones and I didn't cancel. I'll let you guys know what they are like...

EDIT: it is nice to have fleabay as an option with these kinds of things
