Sony DR-220DP Headphones for PC

I purchased this headphone to be used with my Sony Vaio laptop which has low sound output, however due to not having a volume control, it is not recommended for such use.Good for normal PC works, chatting etc

Good sound quality, Mic is placed at position where it doesn't disturb while listening to your songs. This headphone is good for normal computer work.

It does not have volume control, so it delivers same volume as coming from ur PC. If your computer is having low sound output then it wont work good.

Sony DR-220DP Headphones for PC

This headset is one of the best products I've bought for under $50. It has a clear microphone with no static or noise and the input level is great. Sounds coming from the earpiece are excellent. In first person shooter games, I can hear footsteps from...

Extremely sensitive microphone. High quality sound with full range of bass and treble. A great product for gamers.

None.

PS2 Logitech headset

I got this headset over 4 years ago at a Wal-mart on clearance for $12.00. I thought I'd use it for my ps2 but didn't get around to it. I instead found out that it was pc compatible and have been using it for my computers sound ever since. Now as for...

Much better than your standard bluetooth headset

Unless it varies by the seller, the headset I purchased was the Logitech Playstation 2 USB headset. So far, this was a great headset for use on the PC as well as Playstation 3. The headset looks rather thin so I'm a little concerned on how it'll hold...

Amazing product

I use this headset for absolutely everything I do. Playing PS3 online, talking with friends via webcam, even recording some home demos of my guitar/vocals. I've had this headset since 2005 and have never had a problem out of it. The mute button is a...

Awesome

Great product at a great price. I use this for PC online gaming and it interfaces perfectly. I am able to listen to music over my PC speakers and voice chat with the headset at the same time, very handy!

People are reviewing the wrong product

***People are reviewing the wrong product***

Many people are posting reviews for the Logitech headset, but this is the one manufactured by Sony according to the item description.

Sony Product !

A typical Sony product that stands up to its name. The headphone and the mic function properly and I never had any problem with them. The headphones give you clear crystal sound and the mic can pick up your voice even at the lowest. a very good product.

Unsure why this gets such a poor review...

I have read all the reviews, and the most common complaint seems to be faulty equipment, and that would make me hate a product as well. The thing I find funny, is that I had one of these headsets, the one got with my original cpy of "Karaoke...
