Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Logitech ClearChat Pro USB Headset
Customer Review: Exactly what I needed: comfortable, quality, affordable
Summary: 5 Stars
I've started to record my interviews with Skype, and I want the sound to be podcast-quality even if I don't use the recording for that purpose. The Mac is good at this, not great. So I sprang for this USB headset, and I'm very glad I did.
First, the headset is surprisingly comfortable. I can easily wear it for 45 minutes while I'm "on the phone" (in fact, I have) without feeling like my head has been in a vise. (I see that some reviewers feel the headset is too tight; I didn't have that problem, but I'm a size-small person. If you wear a large hat size, perhaps these aren't for you.)
The sound quality is just-right for my needs, though I haven't had reason to use the headphones for music. And setup was... well, there *was* no setup. Just plug it in, change one setting in Skype's preferences, and I was in business. I *do* so love it when technology works as invisibly as it's supposed to.
Customer Review: Happy!

Prior to purchasing the Logitech ClearChat Pro, I owned a set purchased from Target. The Target headset served it's purpose (Wow and Ventrillo) until I purchased an iMac (Intel 2009) which does not have the appropriate connection.
The Logitech headset works beautifully out of the package and plugs and plays with the iMac. WOW and Ventrillo work great with the headset along with the other applications I need sound for including iTunes (while playing WOW). Unlike the Target $19.99 headset, the Logitech has great sound and is very comfortable, microphone is out of the way. I have a big head and thought at first it might be a problem, but hasn't been an issue.
If you can afford a wireless version, I would say spend the money. The wired version is definitely annoying considering my mouse and keyboards are both wireless.
Customer Review: Reliable, comfortable, high performance!

I've head this headset for about a year and a half now and it is still functioning perfectly. This is in contrast to previous Logitech headsets I owned which all died within the first year.
The fact that the unit has a nice thick and durable cord, and a complete lack of controls and other stuff hanging off the cord probably contributes to this. I love the on-headset volume and mute controls (instead of having them dangle annoyingly from the cord like with the Premium Headset 350) and the USB controller being integrated into the plug is a nice touch.
The sound quality (both incoming and outgoing) is top notch too; I always leave the switch in the "music" position and it sounds good for everything.
Great job, Logitech.
Customer Review: Great Headset and Good for Skype
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an excellent headset for Skype. It is loud and clear, and the microphone extends all the way to your mouth, so that callers can hear you clearly. The mute and volume controls are very convenient, and the mute LED on the microphone boom is a great idea. The cord is long. The volume gets very loud if you turn it up, and the clarity is better than on a standard handset/landline combo.
It's funny, I bought this at Best Buy, then found it on Amazon for $20 less. I returned it to Best Buy and bought it from Amazon. That one was DOA. These things happen. Amazon returned it and shipped me a new one, with both shipping free of charge. I am a happy camper now.
Customer Review: So much more than you pay for!

As a pc gamer, my headset is one of my most important pieces of equipment in multiplayer. I had this set until my son broke it, and I have yet to find a better quality sound set, even in the higher price ranges. So finding this model here on Amazon and being able to replace my old ones made me very happy. This headset sounds like a more expensive set, and the voice quality its also top notch. The seller got this item to me in very good time, with good packaging. I highly recommend this headset to all pc gamers who use VOIP, or just want to hear their games in top quality sound!
