Great product

I bought 2 pairs of these to use primarily for online gaming. They are very good. Here are some specifics:

- In my opinion very comfortable. They are not tight on your head at all and are pretty light. I really like the behind the head and so does my wife (does not mess hair at all.) You probably can not do jumping jacks with them on, but they will not fall off due to normal use.
- The adjustability is pretty good too. Pretty easy to fit.
- Quality is very good. I also like the fact since they are not over the ear, you can still hear background stuff - like the kids yelling at each other. Not quite as high quality as my Bose Triport headphones, but for what a normal person would expect there is no issue with these.
- Analog-vs-USB. I thought I would use the USB, but to be honest the mini-stereo analog jacks are the way to go. The USB capability is a nice backup, but if you already have a built in mic (like most laptops nowadays) the USB may create some conflict. With the analog connections there is absolutely no issue with installation or working.
- I think the case is a nice add on. Nothing spectacular, but useful. I did not see many others that had this.

Overall I think these are an excellent choice for online gaming, VOIP, or other headset applications. Watch out though, I found my 2nd set of these at a local major (and online) retailer for a cheaper price. Will not post here out of respect for amazon (retailer has same initials as me), but the amazon price can be beat - which is rare.

Quality, but a little lax on the comfort

I searched for awhile looking for a headset for Skype and Rosetta Stone. So far, it seems to be built pretty solid.

I used it with Rosetta Stone (a language program). You can speak into a microphone and the program will compare your accent to a native speaker. At first, I had trouble getting the microphone to pick up my voice. I turned up the gain, and it seemed to work a little better, but I also think the software is not the best.

I have not had a chance to use the headset with Skype yet, so I can't comment on that, but I have used it as headphones for listening to music and movies. The sound quality is good enough, I could not notice any problems or issues.

Comfort wise, this headset is not the best. If I wear them for about an hour, my ears and head start to hurt a little. I just would switch between this headset and my iPod earbuds every so often. The other problem is with glasses. I'm not sure if my glasses are wider than most, but the headset pushed on my glasses and they had trouble staying in place. It wasn't that big of a problem since I mostly wear contacts, but it was a disappointment.

Style wise, obviously these look cool, almost like a Bluetooth set on each ear.

All in all, I'm happy with the purchase, but I think they could be better if they were a little more comfortable.

Works great.

Works great, I use it on my desktop for Skype and sometimes for just listening to music or using TeamSpeak or Ventrilo. Good set of headphones for the price, and the box is somewhat useful for transit. Definitely recommended.

Great, but expensive headset.

First off I only give it 4 stars because it is a bit on the expensive side.

I was looking for a headset to replace my old and worn out Plantronics Audio 70 to be used for PC gaming. The only thing that I wanted in the replacement was the behind the ear style.

I was a little put off but the price of the headset and the fact that it was advertised as a "Notebook Headset", but I took the plunge and bought it for $50 and haven't looked back since.

It's a great product, the mic is clear, audio in the headphones is great, and the build quality of the actual unit its self is top notch. The adjustable earphones actually work, I had no problem adjusting them to my liking.

The USB connector is a wonderful thing if you have a front facing USB port and don't want to mess with audio cables, with Windows XP you don't need any driver, just plug it in and its ready to go.

As I said earlier I was only looking for a PC gaming headset, but since it came with a travel/carrying case I have traveled with it as well and used it with my iPod. It worked great, the mic actually rotates back and is more or less "hidden" and doesn't get in the way. There is also a little holster for the mic jack so it stays out of the way when just using the headphones.

If you like behind the ear design, and don't mind playing a little extra for the carrying case, I would recommend that you get this headset.
