The Plantronics Audio 90 Multimedia Stereo PC Headset costs $16.29 at Amazon.com. Shipping adds around $6, but orders over $25 ship for free.
Features include gold-plated plugs, in-line volume and mute controls, and adjustable microphone.
IMO...
Very nice headset and well priced in this instance. It is comfortable to wear for long periods of time. I had one that lasted me about a year and a half. It finally fell apart after taking a beating from being transported to 50+ LAN Parties.

I went through probably 15 headsets. Some were downright uncomfortable, some sounded like crap and most died . I got the a90s and still have em. Thye are comfortable and sound great .

If mine die I will get another set. They kick ass.

Which VOIP applications do you use?

TeamSpeak, Ventrilo, Skype?

Too bad this isn't behind-the-head style, that's what I prefer. I hate getting "headphone hair" from wearing those regular headsets for a long period of time :p

It's in the product description. 2.9 M(meters). If you're not familiar with metric, consider that the average height of men is 1.7 ~ 1.8 meters.

Aren't the sennheisers uncomfortably tight though? That was the main complaint that I've heard about the pc150's

Smoking deal on a Great Headset...

1st set lasted 3 years of almost daily use (read abuse), rolling over the cord hundreds if not thousands of times, dropping/falling on floor. They still work and sound great but the mic only works through about half it's adjustment range now.

Not if you have a little tiny head.
