Rosewill 5.1-Channel Vibrating Gaming Headset- USB Connector - RHTS-8206

Pros: What an interesting headset! I have never owned a headset that vibrates with the bass, but after getting this one, I'd be more than happy to have one that vibrates over one that doesn't. The ear cushions are very thick, and I have no problems with my glasses and this headset. The sound comes through very clear and crisp. When the bass kicks in, the vibration just adds a really nifty effect. The mic is very adjustable and the boom is long. Sound quality from the mic is good enough for me (not too bad, but don't expect too much).

Cons: I feel like I'm breaking the mic when I try to take it off. It's plugged in very snugly, and I don't like to take it out. Although this thing is great for playing music loudly, others WILL be able to hear your music. The vibrations don't seem to be too loud, but the rest of the music is not too hard to hear from the outside.

Overall Review: The headset controller is kind of large, but not unnecessarily so. Lots of options on it too, including vibration settings, volume, and mic options. I did not install the software yet, but I don't know if I'd need it. I don't need these for music, but gaming. They work just fine. A great purchase, highly recommend these!

Pros: -Multiple drivers in each ear -Vibration -Comfortable

Cons: -Build quality could be better

Overall Review: I installed the drivers and software that came with these, spent about five minutes tinkering with an equalizer, and poof! great headset for a fraction of the price of a good one. The build quality is not necessarily the best, but for the price, what can one expect? The position adjustments on the headset lack a little bit compared with other headsets, but the price more than makes up for that, and comfort doesn't suffer too badly (at least for me; comfort is in the mind of the wearer). The virtual 7.1 works rather well, and the vibration works nicely to enhance bass. I would highly recommend this headset.

Pros: Price was excellent on sale. Build quality is good for the money. Good quality sound from the speakers. Drivers load right up in Windows 7 if you want basic drivers. If you want more elaborate drivers with total control, use the drivers on the disc included. Cable length is more than long enough.

Cons: Haven't found any so far.

Overall Review: Works well with music. Works well with games. Its Rosewill, it's from NewEgg, and it works.

Pros: First time listening to the headset with vibration feature blew my mind. It's something you really need to hear to experience. It makes you feel like you're at a show, feeling the vibration in your body. The sound is strong and the bass is has been sufficient enough to satisfy any of my music needs. The Detachable mic is a nice added feature if you don't want to have a long mic sticking out and just want to go audio mode. They're not pressuring on the ears or jaw/temple area and since it is a big headset, will fit any big heads.

Cons: After owning these for a little over than a week, the right ear piece fell off effortlessly. I had folded my headset in the proper manner, and when unfolding normally, it just fell off. The entire padding, so I was left with this plastic speaker that's unwearable. Either these were poorly built, or I just got an unlucky pair. For $60, I expect my headset to last (under great care!) over a dang week!! I feel like I got ripped off after using such a great product for such a short time. Another serious problem, for those who use Skype/Ventrilo/Mumble/Any mic chat program; is that if the vibration feature is turned ON (no matter what setting), the quality of the microphone drops leaving this "buzzing" sound that's alittle annoying to hear from your friends side. You won't be able to hear it, but your friends will. If left off, the quality shoots back to normal. It's unfortunate to keep switching between the two if you're playing games with your friends and you want to keep that awesome feature on, unless your friends can ignore that sound. The design is rather clunky and outdated but I care more about the comfortability and sound.

Overall Review: Well, I *WAS* extremely excited when I received this headset and was more than happy to hear the quality and the features it gave out when I listened to them. The microphone problem I guess I can get around (I use the microphone a LOT), however I just felt extremely disappointed, confused and ripped off on just how the right ear cup just fell off so soon.. I would recommend this headset to people who are looking to get a more than decent headset in this price range, but just be weary of microphone qualities and hopefully nothing else breaks off for no reason.

Pros: Sound - 5.1 sound is amazing in these headphones! - Very loud! - Crystal clear! Microphone - Very clear (according to my friends) and blocks out the tv noise my old logitech's used to pick up. - Detachable!!!! That's just awesome. - Bends out of the way! Vibration - Huge + - The vibration makes it sound like the bass is hitting hard, fools many people with turtle beaches and tritons. Control - Convenient buttons - Vibration switch - Convenient mic mute Software - Driver installed by itself on win 7 64bit Hardware - Very solid headphones, does not feel cheap at all! - Chord is plenty long for the computer

Cons: Sound - Doesn't sound like too much bass when the Vibration is off. Microphone - Can pick up my whispering haha Vibration - Almost feels like an essential piece of these headphones after you used them already =P Control - Very bright lights - buttons aren't the easiest things to push Software - Didn't look into it much as the windows sounds adjustments are plenty sufficient. Hardware - Not sure if you can use these as xbox headphones but if so; the chords are too short for that.

Overall Review: Cannot feel the vibration part fully until the volume is ~ 50% No idea what the point is of the swivel on the headphones to point in the opposite direction. BOTTOM LINE - Rosewill caught me off guard with this product. These are just awesome and I was not expecting that at all.

Pros: Great sound, comfortable to wear, great price.

Cons: None

Overall Review: Works fine by plugging it in and letting windows install the driver for it, try it before using the cd.

Pros: This is a fantastic headset. I've been using mine for music, skype and gaming for about four months now without any problems. -The vibration was strange at first but you get used to it. Often times it vibrates to emulate a deep bass in songs (which is actually kind of cool) and is integrated in more games than i would have thought. -I'm no audiophile but the surround sound and sound quality is exceptional. -The little cord remote thing attached is helpful to turn the mic on and off when you're using it. -The mic is completely removable too if you don't like the look. -It passes my game-for-hours-straight test without making my neck/ears/head sore. I barely notice it's on. -I have a pretty big head and the adjustability is great. It seems to be designed to stretch AROUND your head, unlike most that just make the phones lower on your head instead of getting wider.

Cons: Only con I can think of is that the remote light is a little bright. When two or three of the lights are on, they can be distracting in a dark room. Solution? Flip it over. I actually find it useful now as I use the remote for a light when I need to find things on my desk in the dark.

Overall Review: I bought these when they were on sale for $35 and I couldn't be happier. This headset proved to me you don't have to spend the $80+ on a nice headset to get all the basic functionality I need.

Pros: Price - Got these on a shell shocker deal for under $40. Hard to beat that price, especially for a 5.1 headset Sound Quality - Realistic 5.1 immersion, especially for games. While the sound isn't as stellar as my Audio Technica headphones (which retail for $150), for games they reproduce sounds accurately and with depth and detail. Conversations on Skype also sound clear Vibration - I was *extremely* hesitant about this, as it sounds more like a gimmick than a useful feature. Credit goes to the Rosewill designers, they incorporated the vibration in a manner that, in only a few minutes, feels natural and adds yet another element of depth to the sound. I agree with another reviewer that 'vibration' might not be the best way to describe the feature. 'Bass enhancement', although vague, actually does it more justice Microphone - detachable, which is huge if you just want to listen to a movie or play single-player games. I've had no issues with friends unable to hear me during games

Cons: Control Box - Or whatever you want to call that box where you can control mute/volume/vibration. It's a little too heavy and the cord isn't quite long enough to rest it on a desk without it getting in the way. Usability is just a little off here, as it can feel uncomfortable by adding an unbalanced weight to the headset if it just dangles during gameplay Construction - Definitely where the pricepoint comes in. Although the plastic is fairly thick, it also feels cheap compared to more expensive headphones. The foam on the headband and ear cups is also not quite as plush as I would like. Otherwise, it hasn't broken on me yet, so no complaints Movies and Music - the 5.1 reproduction isn't as strong with movies as it is for games, so don't expect these to replace a classic 5.1 setup (or even some 5.1 logitech speakers). Music is also better listened to by traditional headphones, as these don't quite pick up on the nuances in music as they do in sound effects during gameplay.

Overall Review: Like I said, I got this for a fantastic deal on shellshocker, and it has more than lived up to its price. Even at the current $60, it's much cheaper than some of the more expensive Logitech/Corsair/Creative options out there, but understand that with a lower price comes certain trade-offs. Thankfully, this headset excels where it counts, offering superb sound quality for games and a realistic reproduction of 5.1 sound with the added ambiance of bass enhancement (vibration). Unless you spend more time in DOTA 2 than at your job, these are the headphones you want.
