Headphone system with external microphone

[G-bone]

Hey all and happy new year!

For along time now, I've been wanting a Headphone system that had an external microphone and an A/B switch that allows me to toggle between the sounds of the detector or the microphone which allows me to hear what a friend might be saying, or what passer-bys might say.
a very high powere mic that I can hear words from a good distance or other surrounding noises.

So curious if anyone else would find this beneficial and maybe even seen something like this already out there?

Cheers all!
G

How about these? Put a volume control o to the mp3 input, and you can hear outside sounds as well as the detector!

Very cool. Thanks for the idea Roque.
From the rsponses here, it seems like a mute point ( ) to most.
But I think the idea holds some value and will continue to pursue it.

Cheers

Thanks, Rogue! I'm a shooter too and did not know about these.

You're welcome! Most of the time I hunt with the Garrett Treasuresound phones so I can hear the kids. The ones that cover the ear tend to block out all the "Dad! She's hitting me!". I like the Prostate sound, but it blocks a lot of the ambient, uhhh, "nature" sounds for sure.
