    Any suggestion on headset for one who is wearing glasses?
    I intend to use it for gaming, skype, and such.
    MY budget is not over 100 bucks.

    Thank you in advance

    You might like the Razer Carcharias. It's very lightweight and doesn't grip your head much. It's $80 direct from Razer, and you can use the coupon code "RAZERFTW" for free shipping. You can probably find it cheaper elsewhere, though.

    The only one off the top of my head is the Razer Moray Plus:

    It's got a bunch of adapters to let you plug into just about anything that uses a mic, too.

    I'm sure you can just get whatever, especially if audio quality doesn't rank high in importance. I wear glasses and have never had them interfere with over the ear headphones unless they are of the obscenely large variety.
