5 out of 5 stars Great value   August 17, 2008
This is my second headset that I got to replace my land line for VOIP. I occasionally use it for chatting or on Teamspeak. So far I am very satisfied with it for the value. The sound is fantastic and the microphone works a lot better that my old set.

Pros:
Sennheiser quality sound
Great microphone quality
Comfortable and easy to wear for long periods

Cons:
A little wide across the top of the head - can fall forward/backward
Pricier than other brands

While this headset may be a little pricier than other models, its build quality is in line with that price and the sound quality both in and out is fantastic.



3 out of 5 stars Great sound, but uncomfortable   August 12, 2008
The sound that comes out of these headphones are great. Nice and crisp highs, and a decent enough amount of bass. The cord is nice and long, which is very convenient if your computer case sits on the floor, and doesn't have front mic and headphone ports.

My main gripe about these headphones is that they will hurt your ears after a while. The cups are small, so they will smush your outer earlobe. If you only plan to wear these for about a 1/2 hour at a time, it shouldn't be bad. but if you like to game for extended periods of time, or even just sit at the computer with headphones to listen to music or watch a movie, it gets a little irritating.

They are priced very well, and the microphone quality is great. i like the in-line mic mute and volume control on the cable.



1 out of 5 stars Very disappointed   August 2, 2008
Before I get into the negatives, I will point out the one plus feature. It has an in-line mic mute and volume control. I think all headsets should have these and is one of the reasons I bought this.

I find this headset bulky, heavy, and uncomfortable. Because the earpieces do not fit over the ear but on top, they bend my ears back which becomes very uncomfortable in a short period of time.

I expected better sound quality. When listening to music, the sound quality is poor.

A minor point but at this price I expected a case and there is none.



5 out of 5 stars An older version but works just as good   June 1, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This is my 2nd Sennheiser PC151. I had the first one for almost 2 years and it worked perfectly regardless of how many times I dropped it or tripped on the cord. I moved recently and left mine behind. I thought my little laptop headset would cut-it but it doesnt compare to my old Sennheiser PC151. Theres a newer version out but I never given how I never had any problems with this one - might as well save $$$ and stick to my tried and true.

Highly recommended. The output is clear, the noise canceling works!



5 out of 5 stars Awesome sound   May 29, 2008
I was looking for a decent headphone/microphone to create decent quality video lessons at work. I looked around and found these and purchased them after reading so many good reviews. These headphones are amongst the best I have ever heard, especially at this price range. The microphone does a great job as well. Now they double as my lunchtime entertainment, listening to my favorite music. I have a very large head, and with them adjusted all the way out, they fit just fine and are very comfortable. Now they don't see everyday use, but they have held up very well. They are at least a year old now and you would never know it to see them. I am about ready to buy a second pair for home and church sound booth use. If you are on the fence, get off the fence and just buy them, you will not be sorry.
