Audio-Technica BPHS1 Broadcast Series Stereo Headset (AUD BPHS1)

Good quality

Audio-Technica BPHS1 Broadcast Stereo Headset is ideal for outside broadcasts and reducing external noise

Das Mikrofon ist top, die Verarbeitung in Summe sehr gut, der Tragekomfort auch sehr gut, wer sich zu dem Preis aber audiophiles Hörvergnügen erwartet wird enttäuscht sein.

Micro au top ! Pour streamer c’est ce qu’il y a de mieux Rien à redire Petit conseil: changer les mousse des oreillettes car elle sont pas bien du tout

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.

I have owned these for almost 2 years now and I feel I can give a reasonably detailed review on them. First of all I would recommend getting an audio interface/mixer interface in order to get the best overall sound quality out of this headset since the microphone uses an XLR connection and the headphones use a 1/4" connection. I have been using this headset for live streaming to Twitch for the most part but it can work well in a pinch for voice over work and commentary. The microphone is extremely well detailed for a headset mic and overall leaves a lot of potential headroom if you wish to process the audio, although it's not entirely necessary to do so. The headphones themselves aren't the best but they do give clear audio that is at the standard you would expect from Audio Technica. The main issue with this headset is the comfort (or lack of). Wearing this headset for more than an hour will start to cause some discomfort but this issue can be fixed. I will split all the pros and cons that I can think of and list them below. Pros: - Great microphone quality (especially for a headset) and can be used for a number of applications - Good headphone quality (clear and crisp but slightly too muddy on the lower frequencies) - Construction is solid (built very well and from high quality materials) - Overall great price for the performance of the headset Cons: - Becomes extremely uncomfortable after wearing for extended periods of time - Cable becomes tangled up pretty easily and can be a pain to straighten out Overall I would say this headset is great for the price and it will last a very long time if looked after (as all equipment should be). The issue with comfort can be fixed as I stated earlier by simply purchasing some new ear pads. I got some from a company called "Brainwavz" which can be bought right here from Amazon for a reasonable price. With the custom ear pads the headset is extremely comfortable and can be worn for hours on end.
