Btw, I can't tell you how many weird replies I've gotten in reaching out to online vendors; the tech support people have no idea about the specs on 1 inch threaded headsets. I guess that's not surprising because it is an out-of-date standard.
De nada.

I will say the spares they sell are intended for their headsets, so they may not work with headsets from another source. At least I think that may be why their rep suggested purchasing two headsets from them. But it is cheap enough to try it and find out. Best of luck!
