About Headsets
A headset combines headphones with a built-in microphone, giving you monitoring and clear speech in one hands-free unit. The right type depends on the job: broadcasters and streamers want a boom mic with proper isolation, camera and event crews need full-duplex intercom headsets that keep a whole team talking, and stage performers need a discreet headworn mic that stays put while they move.
This range leans towards production and comms gear rather than consumer gaming headsets. The Audio-Technica ATH-BPHS1 broadcast stereo headset pairs closed-back monitoring with a dynamic boom microphone on an XLR connector, while Saramonic WiTalk9 and WiTalk5 full-duplex wireless intercom systems keep film sets, sports coaches and event crews connected hands-free. Headworn headset microphones from Audio-Technica and ICM suit singers and presenters, built to plug into a wireless microphone system bodypack or straight into XLR. There is also a budget SWAMP Bluetooth headset for calls, and the Audio-Technica ATH-GL3 covers gamers. For listening and mixing without a mic, browse headphones and studio headphones.
Headset FAQs
What is the difference between a headset and headphones?
A headset is a pair of headphones with a microphone attached, usually on a boom arm near your mouth. Headphones are listening-only. If you need to talk as well as listen, whether on calls, camera comms or air, a headset saves running a separate microphone.
Which headset is best for camera operators and event crews?
A wireless intercom headset system. The Saramonic WiTalk range gives a whole crew full-duplex, hands-free communication, so everyone can speak and hear at once, with single-ear and dual-ear headsets and range up to 500m on WiTalk9.
Can I use a headset microphone for singing on stage?
Yes. Headworn headset microphones like the Audio-Technica PRO8HEx sit close to the mouth and leave your hands free, making them popular with singing drummers, fitness instructors and presenters. Most connect to a wireless bodypack or an XLR input.
