I'm glad to hear they still make them. Mine didn't come with a headset or
speakers. You had to supply your own. I bought an inexpensive set of
battery- powered speakers and plugged them into the headphone jack. If the
microphone is set low and close to the bell (about 6 feet or so) it
produces a reasonable reproduction of my sound, but I mosty use it to check
rhythm, phrasing, etc.
