Hi Kalia, I use a Countryman Associates hands free headset. Countryman is very high performance company that many professionals speakers and performers use. You can contact them directly to ask questions. Their web site is http://www.countryman.com/ I have been using their Isomax headset with my Shure PGX1 wireless transmitter for years now. Hope this was helpful. Good luck. Joe De Paolo In a message dated 9/5/2016 11:12:17 P.M.

I've read the previous threads on headsets going back to 2014 and there aren't a lot of specifics. JoLaine, if you're reading this, I'd love to know what model you use. You mentioned that it was a Shure and that you loved it. And Rich Sbardella mentioned last year that his Shure had been giving him trouble. Rich, what model is yours, and are you happy with your replacement? Here's the mail from last week, to get those of you who didn't see it on the same page with those who did: Hi all I was just working a wedding gig and my old Samson headset mic crapped out. If the piano player hadn't had hers along, I would have been in serious trouble. Time for a new and more reliable headset mic. I use my hands a LOT when I'm doing ONS gigs, so a handheld cordless isn't an option for me. I'd love recommendations from any of you about specific models to look at. I'm planning to plow the funds from this wedding and some of my caller piggy bank into a new mic, so I want something that's really good quality. It doesn't have to be tiny and invisible, but it does need to be reliable and sturdy. If it doesn't have a belt pack that's a plus, but it seems like most of the good-quality headset mics have belt packs. I'll deal with it if that's the best bet. So, recommendations? For reference, the one I was working with was a Samson Airline 77, often referred to as the "aerobic instructor mic." It had the transmitter on the headset, so there were no wires or belt pack, and it worked just fine for a long time until suddenly it didn't. I would like to hear what folks are using who rely on a headset mic for their calling gigs.
