    That is an excellent headset. I remember buying the stereo version of it (the 377) for $50 a couple years ago and thinking that was an excellent price...there is no excuse for anyone not to jump on this. :p

    I had one of those and it was too tight around my head and it hurt if I had it on for over an hour. Took half a year to break it in before I could wear it all the time.

    I should also add that the 777 is the 377 with a removable USB sound card attachment. If you remove that, you have two standard 3.5mm stereo plugs.

    Just bought a pair, how bulky are they? They don't look too big in the photos. I just don't want to have enormous earcups on the sides of my head looking like a goon.

    They're not exactly slim, but they won't make you look too funny. :p

    The microphone tucks into the headband when you're not using it, so they look like regular headphones when you do that.
