Audio-TechnicaBPHS1 Broadcast Stereo Headset with Cardioid Dynamic Boom Microphone

I absolutely love the quality of this headset. The versatility of the XLR and TRS plugs makes it compatible with nearly any system I use, which is a big plus. The audio performance is superb, and the fit is quite comfortable for extended use.While the cable length can sometimes be a bit cumbersome, it’s manageable and doesn’t detract from the overall experience. Overall, the Audio-Technica BPHS1 is a stellar buy that I highly recommend.

I ended up returning because of the price. Not because anything was wrong with it. I just found one better suited for my podcast needs.

I'm a play-by-play announcer for both terrestrial radio and virtual racing. This mic is the same one we use in the field for high school sporting events. The mic itself is great, and you can sit or stand with the cord length being more than adequate. It's basically plug and play with any mixer and with the right one, you can be USB in seconds!

This product superior microphone quality and solid headphone performance. My grandson finds it a valuable tool for his local sportscasting job. However, its primary focus on microphone quality may not make it the best choice for gaming purposes. You should consider the need for additional equipment due to its connectivity requirements and assess whether its design aligns with you intended use.

I love to stream to twitch, but I hate using a mic that's attached to the desk. Because of how much I move at the computer, I always find myself leaving the sweet spot of any desk attached microphone. Headsets work great for me, but outside of some sennheiser headsets, I found the mics were always lacking. That's when I tried the BPHS1 and after using them for almost a year, they have been PERFECT for me.The headset's themselves sound great. If you have used headsets like the Audio Technica M50x then the sound quality will be familiar to you. I'm happy with the way the mids and highs sound, and the bass has a very good punchiness to it. I really like the sound quality coming from them.Comfort wise I wasn't a fan of the smaller ear pads that came with the unit, and quickly purchased more pillowy pleather pads and have really enjoyed them. I plan on eventually getting the velour pads, but really haven't been in any rush as the pillow pads have been really comfortable for over 2000 hours of usage already.Be warned, the cable is long, and also heavy'ish, so it will snap a lot and also sometimes just feel in the way. I've rolled over it so many times which can be annoying, fortunately it hasn't been damaged yet.The kicker for this headset is the mic. I absolutely ADORE this mic. Because it's a dynamic mic, once you get it setup right, it has great sound isolation along always being in your sweet spot as you move around. It makes streaming SO much more convenient. While doing testing of the headset, my friend said it pretty much sounded like an Audio Technica At2020 or At2030 mic being used with the headset. After thousands of hours of twitch streaming, the mic still sounds and I get many compliments on how it sounds.The headset seems pretty expensive, but if you think how much it would be to purchase a At2030 along with a headset, the price is a lot more reasonable. I purchased 2 used ones from Amazon for about 60% the normal price and it really made them that much more worth it. One set is paired with a Rode Procaster and the other a Audient Evo 4 and both have been wonderful.

Headphones and mic performed perfectly for my on-air application. The cable is five miles long! Going to shorten it up. Wiring instructions included in box. I would have prefered more cushiony ear pads but I will replace them when the time comes. Overall, yes, five stars. Buy them, you'll love them.

I have had these since 2017 and I love them. Sound quality is good and work well with different size mixers even though they have different results sound wise. I ordered another pair in 2020 and I still have both pairs and they are plugged into an Allen & Heath ZEDi 8 and ZED 60-14 FX currently.Overall the BPHS1 headset may not be the right headset for some and yes depending on the interface you use, the mic can sound a little flat but this is not a bad thing in situations as gain and bass along with treble and mid can be adjusted to compensate. I do internet radio so I use it to record commercials for my network and depending on the mixer I use, the sound is top notch. I do have hand mics that have better sound mic wise, but hands free doing videos, these are my go to. Some have stated that they have had to change the ear cups because they can be uncomfortable after using them for long hours, but for me I have not had this issue as I wear them 8-10 hours a day.If you are thinking of a great headset, take it from me. You can't go wrong with this.

I use these for podcast recording. They are great to travel with and we use in studio for guests who have trouble staying close enough to regular microphone. I’ve purchased a few of the over the last year!
