amazing.......2007-04-21

this item works very very well with music and the mic is absolutly amazing!!!!

Great sound.......2007-03-27

I accidentally stepped on my Labtec headset so bought this. The price was roughly the same as the Labtec, but what a difference in sound. I haven't tried every headset out there, but I am a musician and I am impressed.

Descent for the price, could be better........2007-03-04

Pros:
-Descent sound quality for the average customer (stereo, not surround). The sound quality for music and games is quite solid, even at high volume.
-Fits my head comfortably. After 30 minutes I forget that I'm wearing them.
-Fair price (about $20).
Cons:
-Noticable white noise when nothing is playing.
-Chincey construction (Whatever you do, make sure these don't fall on the floor).
-Poor microphone sensitivity (I have to raise my voice to a borderline yell with the microphone touching my mouth in order for others to hear me).

In review, nothing spectacular. Just an average headset for someone with a shallow pocketbook.

Great buy for the price.......2007-01-17

The earphones are solidly constructed, and I have had no problems whatsoever with them in the few months I have had them. The audio quality is top-notch, you won't find better sounding headphones in this price range. The microphone is a bit loose, but is not a problem as of yet. I also like the manual volume control attached to the headset.

Headset Great until..............2006-11-11

I plugged the headset into the speaker bar attached to my Dell flat screen and it sounded fantastic. I clipped the volume control to my shirt and everything was fine. Then I stood up to get something and the cord caught on the rail that held my keyboard tray. It severed one of the wires leading to the headset. These are very fine wires. I did what I could to patch it, but it never sounded the same. I am contemplating ordering another pair and just being more careful next time. Bottom line: great sound but too fragile for me.
