Reviewer Comments
The Good: Incredible sound just adds to the overall quality of the headset. Stays comfortable for hours of gaming without repositioning.
The microphone is very sensitive, so you wont have to yell for people to hear you. Nothing confusing about it just plug it in and go.
The Bad: The headphone wire can be too short if your computer isnt close to you. When you use the volume control wire it makes the wires too long. Microphone sometimes makes you loud which can cause distortion in speak. The microphone is not physically attached to the headset so it can be lost or hit by things on your desk easily.
Conclusion: Overall this headset has exceeded my expectations, while it is a little bit expensive its well worth it. The microphone can be a bit of a nuisance during gaming. The comfort is unmatched by any other headset in the same price range. This is the headset, for those of you who are out to find something affordable with an incredible array of features and sound.
