I want some clear headset gear - Lynn


Posted: Mar 28, 2014

Seems like i have the worst time trying to get some headset that will give me the kind of audio I need in order to hear better. The last I bought were Bose and still not good enough. What and where to find some really good ones? Thanks.

1) Get Breakaway Audio Enhancer (free trial) - 2) Then if still not good enough,

If you do not mind earbuds, the absolute best for audio is the Philips Sports earbuds. Having the earbuds in your ear funnels all the audio in there, not lost to the environment, and also is not overly bass-y, which is a problem I find with a lot of earphones. Also I cannot deal with those headsets that squeeze themselves onto my face - they give me a huge headache. I have gone through so many, and the Philips earbuds + Breakaway is an amazing combination.

You can get the Philips earbuds on Amazon for 15 or 16 dollars. Good for listening to your ipod during sporty activities too!!

I was having a hard time finding a headset with good, clear sound, and finally settled on Beyerdynamic DT-770-PRO-32 on Amazon. I have been very happy with the sound quality. :)

Transcription Gear's Atom Live System?
Jun 25, 2011

Have any of you transcribed or managed transcriptionists/dictation on Transcription Gear's Atom Live System?  If you are a transcriptionist how fast was it to get your transcription and send it back, how clear was the audio? How stable was the player? If you are a transcription manager and managed the work flow did it give you enough flexibility to be able to route work the way you wanted to your transcriptionists?  I am thinking of using it and just want to see what you all thoug ...


Gear Player Wont Convert Files?
May 24, 2013

Hey guys, I'm so frustrated because for some reason my Gear Player will not play my files. This is the second time this has happened. I don't know what I did the first time to make it work, it just sort of happened. When I get work, the files will automatically go into Gear Player, but then when I try to load to file it says "Converting File" and then it just never loads. It doesn't make any sense because it happens to files that I've already played too so I know they should ...

Got My New Headset
Aug 23, 2011

I am sorry to say that my old ones work better for me.  I think they would be ok, but I get a lot of (what I think is) cellphone audio, and they just don't work as well for that.  I have tried switching back and forth while working to test them, and then I always end up using my old ones.   I like the way they feel though.  It was worth a try. ...

Transcription Headset
Sep 24, 2010

I did a search and couldn't really find what I was looking for. I need to buy a new headset. Does anyone use or know of a headset that really brings up the "volume." I got one from Transcription Gear a few years ago but it really didn't do what I thought it would. At the moment I have my set and computer up as far as they will go and it will be easier if I could somehow get it louder. Thanks for your help. ...

Recommend A Headset, Please
Sep 20, 2013

I'm looking to purchase a new headset for transcription.  I had a Philips SHM-7500 and it lasted for 6 years. It's no longer being sold other than on E-bay from Korea ;) I have heard good things about both the Logitech h540 and the Spectra USB Transcription Headset, two totally different styles. Any input/recommendations for these or any others? I use it on the computer, not for cassette tapes. The Philips had the open ear cushions while the Logitech has flat padding. ...

One Side Of Headset Not Working
Aug 11, 2010

Hi, one side of my headphones quit working.  Any ideas?  - It is the same way no matter what I listen to so not the fault of transcription software.  thx for any ideas.  Sounds stupid, but I can't remember what they are now ... but I think Transcription Gear (sounds right).  They have the big ear buds that don't really go into the ear and have the volume control along the wire.  They aren't all that old either. Any ideas appreciated!  ...
