Headsets

We carry an assortment of computer hardware products suitable for Speech Recognition. While there are many manufacturers of these types of products, our experience has been that many of these do not work properly for professional use. The headsets that we do carry have all been tested by us and have been found to work properly with ViaVoice and Dragon NaturallySpeaking. This is not to say that some other products will not work properly. However, we have not been able to test other products to our satisfaction or have not been able to test them at all.

Of all the headsets we have had the pleasure of testing over the years Plantronics DSP headsets have consistently proven to be solid professional solutions for speech recognition and dictation. Plantronics implements 32bit DSP technology in it's line of plug and play USB headsets. DSP, which stands for digital signal processing, is a technology that reduces ambient background noise and is a fully plug and play audio solution for your PC optimized for speech and voice applications. Each headset is designed with comfortable earphones and an adjustable, noise canceling boom microphone as well as an inline digital volume/mute control.
