you can turn it off with a button, some kind of,
and I quote, "processing," and am glad to have it off. :)
it is, quite clear, and there is a nice "help"
facility built into the installer which
compensates for the legacy "delay" of bluetooth
so you can play games as you should. :)

Iâve not much time at the moment so will have
to satisfy my curiosity later but initial search
results on this headset are interesting, it
seems to be a surround-sound 7.1 beast so I
wonder how the hell tat works, will complete the
work I have to do here and have a look later on.

passable but not the best solution by any manner of means for several reasons.

the headset to answer/end Skype calls which is
unfortunate and IâÂÂve seen no documentation
anywhere to suggest any workarounds here, not a
huge problem I agree but certainly one which
could have been addressed so its a minor irritation.

youâÂÂre going to get and no wonder given
the early Bluetooth version used, better
headsets can be bought with far better clarity.

>> As for Broadcasting and using a microphone
for that? Well honestly I thought the author of
the original email was having a joke surely, no
one in their right mind would use this Headsets
microphone for broadcasting nor any similar
headsets microphone for the same purpose, again
these headsets are specifically designed for
chatting and the microphones of same have
processing for noise cancelling and so on which
make them incredibly nasty sounding tools for the broadcast environment.
>>
>> If youâÂÂre thinking of broadcasting
terms for microphones then - at the very least
- consider the Logitech USB Desktop microphone
which has surprisingly good sounding
characteristics at a very reasonable price of
$20, youâÂÂll find that this microphone has
a far better dynamic range than those headset microphones.
>>
>> I posted a link to the list some time ago
with a link to an article which discussed
recommended microphones for
Podcasting/Broadcasting, the Yti Blue was
amongst the recommendations but regardless of
that, try the Logitech Microphone first, its a
bargain given its price, bought mine 6 years ago and I still use it.
>>
>> As for the Logitech H800 Headset? I wish
theyâÂÂd either retire that headset or
update the thing. I owned one of these
headsets and it does have plenty of potential I
admit but even the build quality of a disgrace
with the Plantronics model showing the Logitech
as looking terribly beaten, I think the
Plantronics model is something like Plantronics Audio 995.
