So my current headset is on it's way out the door -- it's finally breaking (yay! replacement time).

I have a bit of money so cost isn't a real issue -- what I am looking for is something that is COMFORTABLE for extended periods of time (like a 12 hour flight maybe?).

What do you guys think of the Saitek pro flight headset? Looks decent, but worried about comfortability.

I want something that is GOOD, but comfortable. I wear glasses, so something not too tight is a must.

Suggestions welcome smile

EDIT and such:

Reviews are pretty bad for that headset and I don't like the idea of having it wrap around the back of my head

Thanks for the suggestion though!

I found these: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001O5CCQK/ref=ox_ya_oh_product -- reviews look great, so I went ahead and got it.

Love them... might be bad with glasses though.
