Pros: Excellent highs and lows. Music really sounds good. Played COD4 at Exile Lan Party while wearing these helped out alot. Positional sound was good, not great. You can hear in which direction a nade fell however incoming fire was hard to detect unless you could see it.
Cons: Lost one star due to bad mic. It wasn't the mic itself, it was the wiring inside the inline control module. We tested it on 2 other PC's and got the same result. At this price it's uncalled for. Alittle tight on the head but was comfortable after extended use.
Overall Review: This is a good headset with the potential to be excellent if QC could get it together. If you buy these and your friends are complaining of popping and static from your mic, RMA IMMEDIATELY.
