Andrea Communications NC-181VM USB On-Ear Monaural Computer Headset with noise-canceling microphone, in-line volume/mute controls, and built-in external sound card and USB plug

I will say it is the best headset for Dragon Speaking Software. I curse Dragon 15 Legal India version. Errors are minimalBuild quality is good. Nice product for affordable price

I use Dragon dictation regularly and find it very accurate but had worn out a microphone and therefore replaced it with this one. I find it just as accurate as the previous ones but at half the cost. The quality of the audio seems excellent and on replay has little background noise. This is a product I will enjoy using and would recommend as an alternative to the more expensive models. It also appears well constructed very sturdy metal components for choir and a wire rubber strain protection on the USB input which is always a weakness with wired products and good to see that they thought about protecting damage in the wire at junctions both the USB and the microphone. This review was done entirely and uncorrected DragonDictate.

This prodcut delivers high-qulaity performance, allowing for easy and enhanced operation of vocal recognition applicatioins.Has USB plug-in (so one might need to go to Radio Shack for a USB "multi-port cluster," if your computer has limited USB sockets).Works very well with my Drangon 12 (Nuance product).voice recognition with my writing on Microsoft WordOverall, price is quite reasonable for the expectatoins of the device with voice recogntion software.Highly recommended as a peripheral device which enhances the software package one is using.

comfortable and quick to adjust to my needs. Unlike my other headsets, it has only one ear covered, which lets me hear more of what's going on around me. I generally have difficulty getting a good fit from headphones but these are snug but not tight.

I've been using voice recognition software for several years with the microphone headset that came with the software. It gave acceptable but not great results. I purchased this headset when it became necessary to replace the original one. It has consistently given substantially better results, increasing my productivity and user satisfaction.

Generally an all-round good experience. The headset worked well for both of my requirements - Dragon voice-recogntion, and Skype. The voice-recognition performance was particularly encouraging when compared to my previous two headsets, one of them being a Plantronics DSP 400.Positive features include the mute and volume control - the mute is especially useful with Dragon as the often the sleep/wake-up commands can be mis-recognised and/or take too much time when consolidated over a session much to the users annoyance.Would recommend!
