Sennheiser PC 166 USB Headset

The best gaming headset ever

The headset provides great sound quality with quick response which is ideal for gaming. The microphone is enabled with sound-canceling features, which ensures that environmental noise is not delivered to whoever the user is contacting. The USB adapter...

The volume is a bit low for some types of audio such as music, which is a problem that cannot be fixed

Sennheiser PC166 USB Stereo Multimedia Headset

Our office ordered 6 of the PC165 which was changed to the PC166 which we received (different packaging). Upon first use I immediately noticed off-balance drivers: Bass was weak on the left. I swapped with my colleague's PC166 headphones (from the set...

Long cord with cord winder for storage, replaceable ear pads, sturdy, compact USB adapter, inline volume and mic mute, flexible mic

Poorly matched headphone drivers, lousy bass, tinny highs, supra-aural ear pads, limited adjustment and comfort. i.e. the most important aspects of headphones

Very good Headset

only thing would be preference if u like isolation and earcups....well these are on-ear headphones so just remember that altho they are the most comfortable on-ear-headphones i have ever worn

Very Comfortable and light on the head and ears ; They are tough....even after i dropped a 80lb marble statue on them...they still worked even tho some of the plastic broke....they kept on working taped together for about 4 years lol ; Surprisingly...

i dont have a lifetime supply of them....which would probably only require like 3 pairs in this case lol

Best headphones I've ever had

I've been a headphone wearer since school bus days in the early 90s and continued with ear buds and headsets on the job and in the office ever since. Without exception, these have the best range, best comfort, and longest cord of them all.

Built for giant heads

I mostly bought this headset for use in phone conferences when I work from home (using a regular cordless or mobile phone) and also as a PC headset. I bought jack converters for 2.5mm and 3.5mm. Have used the headset with 2 different cordless phones,...

Not worth the price

Brand name

Uncomfortable to wear, but I didn't wear it for long so maybe it will break in. I immediately noticed the sound quality is not as good as my Plantronics DSP-500, both from the headset and microphone. If you have never had a really good sounding...
