Customer Review: A very under rated headset
Summary: 5 Stars
I have owned this headset quite a few times. I bought it twice in the past 5 years. Hands down it is one of the best headsets that you can own for the price of under 30 dollars.
The Pros:
Behind the head configuration is great. Probably like a lot of people I find that the over the head style of headset to be dated and annoying. There is nothing more annoying than feeling the headset on top of your head. It feels comfortable on the ear even for long time use which for me would be 2-5 hours with them on. Little to no irritation behind the ear or ache from sitting against them.
Sound output quality is amazing. I have tried a handful of other headsets in the same price range and nothing comes close to the quality that I have come to enjoy from this headset. For the money that you pay the quality is great.
Mic quality is equally amazing. Clear voice pickup and input quality. The mic comes to just about the corner of my mouth and the mic arm is fully bendable and can be bent to how you want it positioned near your mouth.
Mic toggle and volume wheel. These are a must for me. I play games with my buddies online and use Teamspeak or Ventrilo. Turning up and down the volume as well as silencing my mic is really a must.
Nice long and flexible cord.
Changeable plates for the headset. This was an awesome feature to me on my first purchase of the headset. I usually kept it on the default black but sometimes I like to wear some orange or red. :P
The Dirty Cons:
The only con I found with this headset is with the little volume control and mic toggle. As I said I have owned two of these headsets in the past 5 years. When one broke it was always at the little control box. More specifically the volume wheel. Over time One side of your headset will start cutting out and you have to play with the wheel a bit to get it to come back and later it will stop working completely. This is mostly brought on by being too rough with this headset and wear overtime. Yanking on the cord will cause this problem to arise. If you are a person who is rough on their things, this is not the headset for you.
