Good afternoon,

Isn't it possible, particularly in Vista, to set the balance for JAWS to one side and the balance for whatever else you are listening to to the other side?

If you need independent audio in each ear with a standard low-cost boom mike + headphone then you need to add the following to your purchase:

1. A three:1 audio patch cable that will split out the headphone input jack to the three signals - right/left headphone and mic input.

2. a separate USB sound card to plug in the computer for your second audio mic/headphone processing.

Plug the other ear to the computer on-board chip and you should be good to go after twiddling with the default audio device for JAWS.

Sheesh o mudda! Is there not a headset like this where I could have jfw in one ear and say skype in the other for a cheaper price than that? Most head sets I see are aruptly $50 to $100, and that is for a dang! good one, too! Granted, they won't seperate jfw from one ear to another, but I'd assume my point still stands, or, am I sadly mistaking.

Yes, I have done the things you suggested. However, since there is no available commercial headset with different sources wired to each ear (and of course, if desired, a mic for phone or DJ), then you end up wiring it yourself.

as you are aware, such a home brew device cannot stand the beating a headset takes and they fall apart quickly or just lose connection.

I have also thought about stereo headphones and use asplitter of some sort to route two different signals to the ears. However, I cannot come up with the "inverted" splitter this would require. Normal splitters take one source and multiply the outputs, here, you would be taking a stereo speaker set and splitting the sides.

Yikes! Is it any wonder I am half crazy! Anybody know a small electronics manufacturer to talk to???

While i don't know what sort of device you've looked at, my sense is that to get JAWS in one ear and music in the other is more a function of sending different sources to different sides of a stereo image and less a function of the phones you use. You might consider having two soundcards with your music coming out of one and your JAWS coming out of the other with each card panned hard to one side or the other. Would that make sense? Are you using a desktop or laptop for this trick?

I have searched for such a beast for a long time. I also need a headset that will monitor jaws in one ear and music in the other!
Good luck. tell me if you find it!

I’m looking for a headset, that will enable me to listen to jaws in one ear and a person, on a VoIP phone) in the other ear. It must have a noise reduction feature.

Thank you for all help!
