Headsets for Raiding

I've been researching headsets for Macs. Here are two which are highly rated. Note that Macs need an adapter to use a headset microphone in many cases. This is explained in the first link. http://www.macworld.com/article/133360/2008/05/beyerdynamic_mmx2.html http://www.cnet.com.au/logitech-premium-usb-headset-350-240064145.htm

This website explains how to set up a Mac client for Ventrilo. Ventrilo (also called Vent) is one of the two most used programs that allow in-raid chat. Teamspeak is the other. Note that your guild's server may need tweeking of its Ventrilo codec.

This site compares Teamspeak and Ventrilo. http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies-archive.cfm/963538.html

Many thanks to CD and King J for help.
