Quick Info
WarrantyBeyond any applicable Newegg return policy, this item is warranted independently by the product's Manufacturer or a Third party. Below is a summary provided for convenience only and may not be accurate or current.
Read full details.
Pros: Good when they work, quickly replaced. There is a reset button not listed in the instruction sheet. It's a tiny pin hole on the "L" headphone (per Sony rep).
Cons: After two months the blue lights on the dongle and headphones blinked twice repeatedly indicating they were trying to "pair" but couldn't. Spent about 20 minutes on the phone w/Sony (good people). Mailed them back to Sony ($9.20) and received a new set six days later. Only been a week, but still working.
Other Thoughts: To get the best price from Newegg you must plan ahead. Their web site stores your search data and will regularly send you emails on the items you searched. Simply search your item and then wait for the price to drop.

Pros: Bass output on these is RIDICULOUS. It'll blow your mind. I have two sets of Turtle Beach's, one high end, one low end, and the Sony Pulse headset destroys them. Unit CAN charge and play at the same time. Has a button behind the right ear phone where you can change the sound mode (Music, Movie, Game, Shooter, etc) which is very useful.
Cons: Sometimes the bass sounds like a small car with a rattle trunk if you turn it up too high.
Other Thoughts: Definitely worth the buy. A friend has a pair of the $299 Beats by Dre and they got nothing on these.

Pros: Comfy. BASS SHAKERS. wireless wells through multiple walls, covering my entire house. Multiple Audio-In jacks are a really nice touch. BASS SHAKERS. Excellent controls, light weight, great battery life.
Enumerates as a wireless headset on PCs. I've personally confirmed that this set works with win7, win8, and Ubuntu 12.10) The mic and headset works fine, with superb quality.
Oh...Did I mention the BASS SHAKERS?
Cons: There's only one con. There isn't a "proper" PC driver for extended features. Windows can provide virtual surround just fine. But there's no driver you can download to enable the voice<->audio mixer that's oh-so-awesome - would be nice if I could adjust between game audio and ventrillo just as easy as on the ps3. Or simply get on-screen notifications.
Other Thoughts: Completely worth the money.

Rating: 5/5Sony Pulse Elite Wireless Headset
Pros: Very nice headset.
Cons: 1 is U need 1 USB port 2 use them for bluetooth. It should be like the PS3 controllers by linking it up. 2 is all the settings on the headphone are very small. These cons are really minor. I will buy them again.
