Customer Reviews:
- Stupendous!: I have now owned this headset for over 6 months. I am a heavy online game player and I must say this headset is great! It interphases well with ingame sound systems. Truely comfortable on the ears, sound quality is wonderful! Durability is great! Clumsy as I am, have dropped it at least 10 times if not more on ceramic tile, my 10lb dog has walked on it several times, my 100lb dog has tangled up in the cord and pulled it full force 3 times :ps, large dog no longer allowed in computer room: and it is still working without a problem! The only fault I can find if you can consider it as that, is I sometimes sit on the volume control and mute myself or turn sound down, but think walking 2 miles a day may help that some . I have gone thru 4 different headsets before purchasing this one. Paid well over $100 for one of them and normally over $60 for the others. This one surpasses them all!
- comfortable but microphone doesn't adjust: I'm using this product right now to type this review, and I think it is very comfortable and will probably last longer than the other headset I had. The microphone position seems difficult to get close enough to the corner of my mouth and that is essential for word recognition. I think I figured out a way now to make this adjustment by lowering the whole thing. Now hopefully things should be better. Maybe the product could have a more flexible microphone, so you could adjust it no matter where are you placed the headset on your head
- Comfortable, Clear Communication: I bought this after considering several options for headsets. After having used it heavily, I can confidently say Logitech has impressed me with this one.
Pros:
1. Crystal clear sound,
2. Quick, automatic driver installation,
3. Simple and accurate mic configuration instructions,
4. Solid compatibility with Vista,
5. Works perfectly with Skype, and
6. Has a very comfortable fit (feels great even after using it for hours at a time).
Cons:
1. Nothing yet, but I'll keep you posted. :)
Strongly recommended. It may cost a little more than the average headset, but it's definitely worth it. - My favorite headset yet!: I've had a lot of headsets, a lot of headphones, and a lot of microphones.
As far as computer use goes, this headset is my favorite. The USB technology is great because it delivers pure digital sound in one connection and one wire. My computer (Windows XP) instantly recognized the headphones and they began working.
One great thing about this headset is that if you want to go back to speakers, you don't have to swap the 3.5mm plugs; you just unplug the headphones and it defaults back to the speakers, and when you plug the headphones back in it switches back to headphones.
The inline volume/mute is useful and it's digital rather than analog.
Now about comfort: these headphones don't look as comfortable as some of the really big cup earphones, but trust me they are far more comfortable. Not only are they soft and plush (leather), but they are so light it's easy to forget your wearing them. I can wear these for hours on end without any discomfort.
On the sound quality: probably the best sound quality you can get for a headset (phone/mic duo) under $100. Because they are USB, the signal is digital rather than analog and there is NEVER any type of static or popping etc. The mic is noise canceling (background noise no longer a problem) and the headphones are very clear and have pretty good range for what they are.
Overall this headset is more what you'd expect to pay around $70 for. They aren't as good for music as my Skullcandy smokin' buds headhphones which I use to listen to my iPhone, but they definitely get the job done for Gaming, Internet Conference/Calling, and General Use (Casual Music Listening, Narrating etc.) for desktops/laptops. Audiophiles definitely won't care much for these because they aren't amplified or high definition, but the casual user will definitely enjoy these headphones.
I also have the Panasonic RP-HTX7PP-K Retro Style Monitor Headphones and the sound quality is about the same, but the comfort and convenience of built in mic makes this headset better. - Nice headset: I purchased the Logitech ClearChat Comfort to use with my HAM radio station for VOIP. It works extreamly well. It has great audio. I am very pleased with my purchase.
