Like many, I've been working from home for over a year, spending hours at a time on video calls. Whatever set-up I tried, nothing quite worked. Now I have found an ideal set-up:1. The Audio-Technica BPHS1 Broadcast Series Broadcast Stereo Headset (this product, £180)2. An audio interface (mine is a Focusrite Scarlett Solo 3rd Gen USB that cost £96 here on Amazon)3. Replacement ear pads from Brainwavz (Angled, oval ear pads in PU leather, less than £20) thanks to a positive review here on this page by callum wright.Note that this costs about the same as the Sony WH-1000XM4 Noise Cancelling Wireless Headphones. I had already tried those - and returned them because, despite positive reviews,I found they were hopeless for video calls.While I was searching for the right kit, I took a few wrong turns. I will explain below why I think this such a good set-up:1. Audio quality for video calls. I use Teams and Zoom primarily. Besides the built-in mic and speakers on my laptop, I tried bluetooth headphones and a number of wired in-ear buds. Using built-in kit means everyone listening can hear tons of background noise (like the fan on my laptop). Prolonged use of in-ear buds left me with an ear infection and the top-of-the-range bluetooth Sony XM4s cut out the whole time - usually doing so as I actually answered a call. My colleagues also said my voice sounded thin and tinny through them. In contrast, the sound quality from this set-up is very good indeed. My voice comes across rich and clear, I can hear other people very well. The connection has never once cut out.2. Comfort. I am often on calls for 4 or 5 hours at a time and I need kit that is comfortable to wear all day long - even with glasses. These are wonderful but ONLY if you get replacement ear pads. The ones that are supplied are uncomfortable after an hour or two and downright painful after a full day - even when taking breaks. The Brainwavz ear pads are great. I first tried another manufacturer (Geekria), but the Brainwavz were both more comfortable and provided far clearer audio. They weren't available on Amazon at the time, so I ordered direct and they took a few weeks to ship from Hong Kong. But it looks like they are listed again here.3. Audio quality for music. In between calls, I like to listen to music while I work. The sound quality of these is surprisingly good - better than the XM4s.4. A nice long cable. Yes, you are physically shackled to the audio interface, but I think the cable must be at least 3m long. Unlike any other wired sets I tried, with this kit I can stand up and move around during calls. I don't find it heavy and I don't find it pulls down on one side like one reviewer mentions.The headphones plug into the audio interface, which plugs into my laptop with a USB-C cable. You need to download some software (clear instructions in the pack) and then it just works.

I have owned these for almost 2 years now and I feel I can give a reasonably detailed review on them. First of all I would recommend getting an audio interface/mixer interface in order to get the best overall sound quality out of this headset since the microphone uses an XLR connection and the headphones use a 1/4" connection.I have been using this headset for live streaming to Twitch for the most part but it can work well in a pinch for voice over work and commentary. The microphone is extremely well detailed for a headset mic and overall leaves a lot of potential headroom if you wish to process the audio, although it's not entirely necessary to do so.The headphones themselves aren't the best but they do give clear audio that is at the standard you would expect from Audio Technica. The main issue with this headset is the comfort (or lack of). Wearing this headset for more than an hour will start to cause some discomfort but this issue can be fixed.I will split all the pros and cons that I can think of and list them below.Pros:- Great microphone quality (especially for a headset) and can be used for a number of applications- Good headphone quality (clear and crisp but slightly too muddy on the lower frequencies)- Construction is solid (built very well and from high quality materials)- Overall great price for the performance of the headsetCons:- Becomes extremely uncomfortable after wearing for extended periods of time- Cable becomes tangled up pretty easily and can be a pain to straighten outOverall I would say this headset is great for the price and it will last a very long time if looked after (as all equipment should be).The issue with comfort can be fixed as I stated earlier by simply purchasing some new ear pads. I got some from a company called "Brainwavz" which can be bought right here from Amazon for a reasonable price. With the custom ear pads the headset is extremely comfortable and can be worn for hours on end.

First things first. These headsets are aimed at the professional broadcasting market not for gamers or the likes thereof.The headsets have a 3-pin male XLR for the microphone and a 3 1/3" TRS jack for the headphones.This headset is amazing value for money, the sound produced by the microphone is crisp and near perfect, and the quality of the headset is beyond what is expected for the price. I use the headsets in a professional sports broadcasting environment for commentary on boxing, muay Thai and MMA events so you could imagine the amount of background noise in such a setting, the microphone is very efficient at blocking out said background noise so all that is heard is the person on commentary.Headset mics of this standard normally cost £400 upwards, so for less than £190 a unit, you are getting a huge bank for your buck.I have also used these in a podcast setting and again the results were amazing, even using just the headset to monitor audio levels is great due to the noise cancellation aspect.For my use I had two options buy these headsets or spend upwards of £500 on coles mics. Im glad I went for this option as I have two items for the price of one. A great quality boom mic, and a great pair of headphones too.Well worth the price tag, but remember these are professional headsets so don't think you can get away with using them for gaming on a PS4, they are not designed for that use. You could use it for that purpose on a PC but you'd need an additional mixer and the means to send audio from the mixer to your PCs input, then somehow get the output into the mixer without it causing a feedback loop. Doing this isn't worth the effort and you'd be better off just purchasing a purpose built headset for such a task.

Headphones sound is great to me (although I am not an audiophile... The only reference of a decent pair of headphones I have to compare is the Sony MDR 7506).Microphone is excellent.I highly recommend getting an aftermarket set of ear pads, I am using the Brainwavz red oval memory foam set and they stay comfortable on my ears all day long.The only area for improvement for me would be to improve the comfort of the headband, after a long day of wearing it can get a little uncomfortable, it could be a little softer.I am using this headset in a loud open office environment with the Presonus Studio 24C USB audio interface. I am on Cisco Jabber, Webex,and Webex Teams calls constantly and the microphone quality shines.

Probably the most professional headset for the price.The headphones are actually the Audio Technica MX30 which makes them very nice to wear. Good head brace and very flexible microphone.Very long cable which can be detached by physically unscrewing a bolt on the headphone (which make it very secure) however this makes it very heavy too. The headphone has a phono jack at the other end, the Microphone has a male XLR.Overall, a very professional setup that works well with a sound mixer for interviews or live commentary.

Great quality headset with an excellent microphone - ideal if you're starting out as a content creator. The cable is about 3 meters so no issues there however it does become quite tangled. Comfort wise they are great if your using them for about 2-4 hours a day. Myself being lonely I use them a lot more than that which does cause some irritation(most noticeably to my right ear and not my left one. Overall the headset is excellent for someone creating content with an excellent mic which is low noise.

These are excellent and high quality after a lot of research.But I'm giving them 4 stars because a simple XLR to mini jack and 6mm jack to minijack cost nothing and were not included. This is a careless attitude to customers considering what I paid for the headphones.It would have been nice to have a volume control on the lead- my cheap Chinese pair has this and it's very handy.

really good, once i got it set up i could tell the difference in audio quality and even in skype my brother said the audio quality was a lot better.I bought it with the Behringer 302USB Xenyx 5 Input Mixer and i did needed to get a jack converter for £3 though but that was easy enough to find at my local music shopin summery it was very functional and does what i want it to do

Very good headset for commentators, find that it is my go to mic for freelance work thanks to it's sound proof headphones and good microphone. However I do have to bring a warning to glasses wearers, as I find that the headset causes strain after a while of continuous use, so take regular breaks or seek an alternative

Great pair of headphones, great microphone my biggest moan about this headset is the cable and mic are on the same side so it feel left side heavy and feels like its going to fall of your head.

Exceeded my expectations. Not only as a kickass microphone for podcasting and gaming, but also as a great sounding pair of headphones. Works perfectly fine with the
