Hi. I use an HS-600, headset. This is a relatively inexpensive microphone headset. In order to get the correct sound and not the Popping P's sound, take a piece of foam such as that you will find in a couch or chair cushion that is a 1.5" x 1.5" square. Cut a small hole in one end of the square about half way through. Insert the microphone portion of the headset into the foam cube. This will help to reduce noise and will not cost a lot.
Hope this helps you...

Hello. You know what, I am pretty sure you are looking into how you could improve your voice over quality and therefore the overall quality of your output.
Why not invest a little. I use the Shure PG48 Microphone. for my voice overs. You can directly plug it in to the sound card of your system. The quality is a lot better than any of those headsets. Well, you spend a little bit more but in the long run, you'll profit more.

This is an okay suggestion but for the best vocal recording quality, you want a condenser mic rather than a dynamic mic like the PG48.
