Thermaltake Shock Headset

The Thermaltake Shock has proven itself as a good choice for any gaming enthusiasts and provides a variety of features worth the money. The comfort while gaming supersedes headsets of similar price, and even after rigorous hours of gameplay did not...

junk not woth the money

i will never order another pair of headphones again i will make my own from now on from parts

sounded good first time using 60 minutes latter using them crackling and popping

volum and mic controls are garbage needed complete rewire from speakers and mic to pc wiring looks like a young 8 year old kid did it. i should have returned them before i took them apart and rewired them now they sound great.

Great - for a time

Even though the right headphone speaker is still out, I still use the headset for skype chatting or gaming sometimes. The mic is still working great, and I'm okay with the lack of audio in one ear. I will eventually be purchasing a different headset,...

Upon receipt of product ; Comfortable (mostly! read the con) ; Excellent speaker quality ; Excellent microphone quality; it could easily pick up quiet sounds from across the room

When I first ordered it, the headset clamped around my head pretty tightly even with a fair amount of adjusting. After a few hours of wearing it my head or ears might sometimes feel a little uncomfortable. After several months though, it seemed to...

Best analog headset I've ever owned

After 2.5 years the mic boom became completely loose and hung at lowest position, which then caused me to try out 6 different headsets at best buy and now I decided to just buy these again because 40 bucks for 2.5 years of life is pretty awesome.

Comfortable, cheap yet well made

Tt eSPORTS HT-SHK002ECBL

Also, can be a little bit heavy. Don't know if that's a pro or con for you.

Overall, good quality in terms of audio and mic, cushion is fine, it's positioned well on my head, and it's lasted more than 6 months for me

Ear piece isn't as comfortable as it can be, should use different material, but you get that if you buy the expensive one

Tt eSPORTS HT-SHK002ECWH

I use this headset at home so it works wonderful. If the TV in our house is turned up. People on skype say they can hear whats in the background and can tell what's on TV. I can generally go about 3-4 hours of gaming before the headset becomes...

It does what is expected. The mic work fine, and the speakers are decent in the headset. Quick breakdown ; color scheme ; works (can talk and hear just fine) ; retractable mic ; basic (no software or drivers just plug and play ; not very expensive ; I...

not the greatest mic (noise canceling is not great. it cancels minor noises but if you in a loud room it will pick up everything. not great for LAN Parties or loud places)

Um... Works for six months

I'm doing RMA for thermal take, hopefully everything will be okay considering the warranty is like 2 years.

Pros are that the sound quality was pretty good, and the warranty is 2 years.

The microphone is crud, and only works for six month, then it dies.

1 1/2 Years

The product just went out on me, right side of the hearphones. Had to use the Service Net warranty to file a claim, I won't be getting them back repaired or replaced, as they sent my a eGift card for a pro-rated amount has I had them for a while. Have...

Tight around the head so no falling off, great booming sound, players didn't have any problems understanding me or hearing me at anytime. Long cord, easy connections

Tight around the head, so it's very uncomfortable at first, and takes some wearing for it to lose this grip, and takes some getting used to. Long cord means easy for it to tangle up or get twisted. *WARNING DEFECTIVE(model) PRODUCT!* read my other...
