Question 1

What is the difference between headsets and headphones?

Accepted Answer

Headsets are basically headphones with an attached microphone. In terms of sound quality, headphones generally perform better than headsets as they are dedicated to producing sound. That&rsquo;s not to say that headphones don&rsquo;t come with microphones &ndash; many do. However, the microphones on headphones will usually be very low-profile and may not perform as well as those on a headset. It is often recommended that a separate microphone be used with headphones.
