Just be aware that CO uses 3.5 mm TWO jack outlet, so if you have the ordinary 3.5 mm jack you will only hear sound out of one of the earphones. The noise-cancelling headsets I've bought in the past came with a splitter/combiner and get sound in both ears.

I have a very hard time hearing anything with the $3 headsets - but then again I have a hard time with background noise in general.
