I generally like the QC20, but I think those were recently discontinued. The mic wasn't the best, but for regular conversations generally didn't have problems if I clipped the mic to a shirt. If it bounced around and rustled on a shirt that wasn't good, but that's going to be a problem with any mic on a wire, I'd think.
The market, that ill-tempered, irrational screwball, has spoken, and its says that everyone wants wireless headphones. The manufacturers have listened, and fervently believe that you’re wrong if you disagree.
