The knowledgeable responses in this thread inspired me to ask a mic question that has frustrated me for some time. I do a lot of gaming on my computer and I'm in voice chat a lot along with that (Vent, Skype, Mumble). I need a good mic, but I just can't stand using headphones. For a few years I've used and addon mic for a headset with it just draped around my neck, which has been serviceable, but not ideal. I was wondering if anyone might have a solution for me that would give me excellent quality sound through my motherboard's onboard sound card without picking up enormous amounts of background noise or feedback from my speakers and without forcing me to use a headset. I've been stymied in my search so far, but it never occurred to me to try a music store instead of a computer store.
