Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
A perfect choice for Internet telephony, Web chat, and voice- and speech-recognition applications, Plantronics' lightweight, monaural DSP-100 USB headset ensures accurate speech recognition, unmatched clarity, and uncommon comfort. The DSP-100 features a noise-canceling microphone and comes packaged with the Plantronics PerSono audio control center software for PC and Macintosh computers.
DSP (digital signal processing) technology further reduces background noise. Comfortable swivel earphones and an adjustable microphone boom enhance comfort and extend product life. Other features include inline digital volume and mute controls, integrated third-party software, an easy one-step-installation from CD-ROM, and Plantronics PerSono Audio Control software.
The Plantronics PerSono audio-control software provides a single interface for controlling all computer audio settings, from adjusting the headset's microphone and speaker settings to launching and controlling MP3, CD, and DVD files. Previously, you had to open your computer's control panel to access and adjust these audio functions and settings. With PerSono software it's all right at your fingertips.
Having a single interface lets you quickly and easily adjust volume, balance, bass and treble for the headphone output, as well as mute and volume for the microphone. This makes it easy to set personal preferences and obtain the best performance no matter what your application. You can also select EQ presets for different music styles (i.e. rock, jazz, R&B, classical.)
The USB digital interface module--which resides inline with the headset cord and obviates the need for a sound card--uses 32-bit DSP technology from Texas Instruments, which enhances the input and output signals. (This connection complies with the latest USB standards and is compatible with Windows 98 SE, Windows 2000, and Macintosh 9.04 operating systems.)
The package also includes software titles such as Lernout & Hauspie's Voice Express for speech recognition, Net2Phone for Internet telephony, Voice Pilot for voice-embedded e-mail capabilities, Hearme.com and Firetalk for Internet gaming and conferencing, and an MP3 player for Windows and Mac platforms.

Excellent for VOIP phone calls,
By
This review is from: Plantronics DSP-100 Digitally-Enhanced USB Speech Recognition PC Headset with Software (Personal Computers)
Skype is hot for overseas calls (free) but you need a quality mic and earphones. This DSP-100 combines both and is just plug-and-play: stick it into the USB port on Mac or Windows devices and you're ready to talk. (The Mac is easier, no driver needed but included with the Plantronics headset anyway.)
fits over one ear so you can hear normally with the other. And mono is just fine for VOIP phone calls anyway. Full noise-cancelling and digital. Excellent value.

Hardware installs fine with XP, software fails.,
By "fosea" (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Plantronics DSP-100 Digitally-Enhanced USB Speech Recognition PC Headset with Software (Personal Computers)
The device installs fine with windows XP (SP1). I can use the microphone, and it's OK.However the software fails to install. Plantronics support is not very helpful - claiming that my USB chipset is at fault (some install shield problem). They suggested searching the web for some answers! It's unclear what value the softwar adds - and again Plantronics are not fortcoming with information there either.

Good for voice recognition,
By A Customer
This review is from: Plantronics DSP-100 Digitally-Enhanced USB Speech Recognition PC Headset with Software (Personal Computers)
Been using this on Win2K machine for over a year. Does pretty good job for voice recognition in Dragon, and it's not the most expensive USB headset. Recognition with this is definitely better than analog (non-USB) headset going thru a soundcard. Only drag is that the Plantronics software is not up to snuff -- fairs poorly in comparison to the headset (which is of pretty good quality). I initially had trouble getting the software to recognize the headset at all, and Plantronics support was unhelpful -- as mentioned elsewhere their knee-jerk response is that "it must be your fault, go away." Have overcome their software problems by ignoring their configuation software and just setting up in target application (e.g., in Dragon).
