Default Headset help

I am somewhat of a audiophile now. However, I am going to be going to some lan COD4 tournaments. Which means I must have a headset.

We are allowed our headsets and a mouse. So that means I can't carry around my 555's or 700's, I need to have a headset with a microphone.



Can anyone recommend me a good pair? I have been looking at these http://www.steelseries.com/us/produc...nd/information


They seem to be pretty stylish.

You can't just have a zalman clip on mic attached to your headset wires?

I'm not sure honestly. It specifically says headset.


I rather just have something small and compact.

I'd ask and double check the rules just in case.
