Leave it to Sennheiser when it comes to headphones

Pros: Great sound for the price, convincing music performance. Microphone is well placed, with fantastic fidelity. Your VoIP voicemail (assuming you have a great voice) cannot sound any sexier than this. Fit and finish is top-notch Sennheiser quality, it has been durable and trouble free since I bought it.
Cons: I have not experienced any.
Other Thoughts: I used to be a high-end audio reviewer for a magazine in the UK, and I am snobby about what I use to listen to music. Having owned many pairs of headphones in my life, from $70 budget ones to the highest end Stax, I understand that making a good pair of headphones is no small task.
That said, I was looking for a very simple headset to use in my office and with VoIP. I looked around and tried just about all of the non-music headphone manufacturers in the stores and none was satisfactory. I turned to Sennheiser, and with the great return policy I bought this pair of headset.
These are the cheapest 'phones I have ever owned, but it lives up to the Sennheiser standard, at least at this price point. Music comes through clearly and convincingly, and the microphone is well placed with fantastic fidelity. The fit and finish, ergonomics are all excellent. At this price, it is really hard to beat. If you are a music lover, this really is a fantastic choice.

After more than 2 years...
Reviewed By: Impulse on 8/28/2007
Tech Level: high - Ownership: more than 1 year
Pros: I've had this set for close to 3 years now and even though I've given them a fair share of abuse (they've taken dozens of 2-3 foot spills from a shelf) they still work just fine. I've got fairly large ears and a normal sized head I guess, but these fit just right. The mic is very easy to adjust so you're heard clearly but it's not on your face.
Cons: I wish the in-line volume control was higher up on the cord... And after all these years the plastic/pleather covering around the sides just dried up and flaked away. It was just a very narrow lining around the sides (none of it actually touched the ear, it's just decorative, and there's cloth under it).
Other Thoughts: I actually own the PC-150s but they look identical to these... Can't complain, the audio quality is pretty good for the price and more than fine for gaming.
The adjustment range for the headband isn't great (it has a good deal of give and the arms extend, but that's it), but they fit me just fine. I have the cans almost all the way in (right one is one notch out) so I guess I have a small-ish head despite my large-ish ears.

Pros: Bought 2+ years ago and still serves as best headset, amazing audio quality, very nice mic, little volume dongle, comfortable!
Cons: Too long cable, volume dongle clip broke.
Other Thoughts: If you need a gaming headset that can be used for music listening, buy this puppy!

Good Headset

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Sennheiser sound and quality. Crisp and clear speakers and mic. Cords are long enough. Great gaming headset. I got the free combo deal with the universal USB adapter. Plug and play works great with adapter.
Cons: Foamy ear pieces get warm quickly. The inline volume control and on/off switch are not typical of Sennheiser standards but work just fine.
Other Thoughts: Good gaming headset and for chatting. I recommend this headset. I highly recommend the USB adapter for free with these headphons

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: 151's are great, specially at this price. For gaming, I would use no other set. I play counter strike: source competitively. And these headphones are what let me play pro. You can hear EVERYTHING. Every footstep, Every reload, everything. And there is no mistaking what direction it's coming from. For gaming, these are top of the line. Even better than steelseries and other over-priced pieces of garbage that they try and market as the top of the line gaming headsets. Music also sounds amazing. Great high's-mid's-bass. Deep rich bass, you wouldn't be disappointed. Mic quality is also superior, crystal clear. I could talk about these for days. Best set I've ever owned, and I've been through LOTS of headphones/sets ranging from 540$-8$... these are by far the best. DONT HESITATE. If you're a gamer, GET THESE!
Cons: NONE. Superior sound. Superior mic. Also. mic is highly configurable, very bendable and sturdy, easy to position in your favorite spot. Very very long wire, which i personally like. I know a lot of people cry about extremely long wires, well it comes with a clip so that you can roll it out to any length you like.
Construction is sturdy, the internal components are soldered top notch, you can yank on the cord as hard and as much as you like and they wires wont get ripped out or separate for a long time.
Other Thoughts: I owned a set for about 2-3 years now. They finally broke.... but it was my fault. Just as a side note, my headsets (not sennheiser) last on average a few months. I beat them up pretty badly, Well sennheiser always makes high quality products, these withstood my abuse for a very long time... the only problem was the right speaker wire was detached from the inline volume control (internally) from constant yanking from standing up too quickly or pulling them because it was tangled in my computer chair. So i just ordered a replacement set yesterday at standard shipping and new egg got them to me today! very fast delivery! I almost cried when i broke my original set, soooo happy to have them back
