We get good results from the Sanako headsets but they are hooked up to a 
Sanako system which has options to eliminate the side noise.

We got some Plantronics headsets made for gaming at a good price about 
18 months ago. They were the model that was going out of style then, 
hence the good price. I was pleased to see there were good options 
available because of gaming.
