Title: Teamspeak question
Post by: Rolz on June 28, 2014, 04:23:42 PM: Hi All,

I would think it's possible but my google-fu is failing me... I want to get something that sits in one ear so I can talk and listen to ppl on teamspeak, but I want the glory of the racing to come out on my external speaker setup...

Currently I have my mic as being a webcam, so I can't really talk whilst driving or u all just hear my car :P

Does anyone run the set up I want to have? If so what do you use?

Usb headset and mic?
Bluetooth?

Thanks heaps!! ;D

External speakers will play game sounds, Teamspeak will use headset.

It might not be what the cool kids are using but I get about 4 horse power out of them, maybe more in echo mode..

They seem like an alright and cheap solution. If I get 4 and they are small enough I might be able to just post one to you Rolz.

Use all of them Guybrush! put them at various distances away for even better echo.
