Can anyone who uses these headphones tell me what settings they use for the mic? Microphone boost/level etcetc.

I'm asking because i use it at microphone boost +20, because a lot of times i cant speak too loudly because there's people either sleeping/doing work that needs quiet in my house and microphone boost +20 seems to be able to raise the volume of my voice to a decent level. The problem with this is that when its at such high of a boost, there's a lot of annoying static noise in the background. This goes away when i lower the mic boost to 0, but then in that case i have to talk in a normal outdoor speaking voice, which i can't always do because of aforementioned obstacles. So just wondering if there's like an optimal sweet spot i can hit with the siberia mic settings or am i just screwed and have to deal with it speaking loudly?

microphone boost at +10, mic volume at 100, anything above 10 seems to have ridiculous static,

edit: if your using skype to communicate, turn off the option that automatically adjusts your volume, set it to full

Well the microphone on those is apparently really poor quality, I'd try uhh using +10 and having the mic like touching my lip or something, maybe it'd work.

I've been using these headsets for over a year now, I've always thought the quality was quite amazing just keep playing with the settings. Pretty obvious one but have you tried the + on the USB Soundcard thing?
