Comment:
Effectively let me begin off by saying that I've went by means of 3 pairs of five dollars headsets from newegg, and I always believed them to be nice headsets (they're voted extremely very on newegg). I've never had a fantastic pair of headphones, and when I got these out of the box and got them plugged up all I can say is wow. In my games my footsteps/weapon swings sound like they are really going on. The realism is basically amazing. So for me this headset is what I've always wanted, I've never ever paid over 10 dollars for 1, and I decided to go out on a limb this time, and I'm really pleased with the income I put down on these. - I can game for hours and hours and hours devoid of noticing these on my head. Slight pressure on my head when I have them on, but that will function itself out with time when I stretch them out a bit. Earpieces literally fit my ears perfectly. The bass is loudAnything seems so much clearer now The cord, I use my gaming equipment how it wants to be use and place it via abuse of sitting down for 8-12 hours a day most days, and playing. With that becoming said I guess my headphones have never ever been a key issue, since I've in no way rolled more than a cord or broken a single. On my inexpensive headphones the soldering came loose inside the headpiece and I'm just to lazy to re solder it. A different set I was moving back from college and yanked on the cord in a hurry and snapped the mic finish off, and one particular of the headphones just quit operating. Anyway my point being if you are brutal to your gear I wouldn't advise this headset, however if you're like me and never ever throw a tantrum or are "aware" adequate to know to keep your cords out of the way of your chair, then I recommend this headset for the price. To me this is a Massive upgrade, but I've come to comprehend that unless you're getting from Intel, you get what you pay for when it comes to most electronics from large retailers. Is this going to be as good as a 100 dollar headset? Most likely not, but for me it's Amazing.

Excellent sound, incredibly comfy, and low price tag. Good microphone also. For me, and apparently other individuals, the headset stops operating immediately after about two weeks. The initially time this happened I woke up in the morning place the headset on and the left speaker was not operating. I sent it back and it was fixed then about two weeks later the left speaker stopped working again. Amazing while it operates, nevertheless long that could last. Getting this occur will probbaly make me appear at other brands just before creative when I purchase a new headset.

Microphone is awesome and captures voice quite clearly. Bass is loud Sound good quality is mediocre. I have an older pair of Steelseries headphones and the mic is starting to shed its clarity. They are nonetheless far superior to the Fatal1ty headset and worth the additional funds if you want each sound high quality and mic clarity

The earpieces are incredibly comfortable. The sound comes through well and folks can hear me. It's not as adjustable as I'd like, I have a large head :) I got a great deal on this headset with a rebate so it was nicely worth it. But devoid of a doubt it's a single of the best headsets I've owned each in comfort as well as utility.

- Mic picks up my voice really clearly- I wear glasses when I use my computer and the ear cushions don't squish me head.- Effortless to turn on/off mic.-Operates wonderful for use in vent when I play WoW Feels incredibly rigid, I nearly really feel like I'm going to snap it in half when I spread the ear pieces to put them on.. also the sound is incredibly bass-ridden (That's not really poor although) Got it on sale, wish I would have waited for when the Sound blasters were on sale, but hey I still have a very good headset. It was a fantastic upgrade from my OLD Creative mic.

This is a fantastic headset, I've had mine for more than two years and they've been going strong due to the fact the 1st day I got them. The bass is fantastic, particularly if you've upgraded from a cheap pair of Logitech headphones like I did. The only con that I can consider of is that the velvet lining the top of the band can mess up your hair immediately after extended use, but that's not adequate to mark the product down. Some people have complained of receiving headaches, and of the headphones hurting their ears following a handful of hours of wearing them. This hasn't personally occurred to me, but my ears are on the smaller size.

I've had these issues for a couple of months now, and they are good. I have a c.r.a.p.p.y sound card, but going from a walmart headset to these is like night and day. I can actually hear where issues are coming from when gaming, and the highs are SO substantially clearer than my old pair. I've by no means been a single to concentrate on possessing great sound equipment when gaming (usually high end graphics cards), but I will def be looking for techniques to better sound output now, because I now know what a difference it can make. They weren't no cost?The cord is very thin, this is a poor issue and a fantastic issue. When the cord hangs down it doesn't bother me anymore i.e I don't feel like I have 10 pounds pulling my head down. Even so, this also means that it's fragile. I'm a pretty heavyset guy and I've run over the cord four-five occasions and it's nonetheless holding sturdy. I have been thinking about wrapping the portion that is in danger of my chair in black electrical tape just to give it a lot more cushion. Great buy, I don't regret the dollars I spent at all. If these break after only a year or so of use I would most likely buy an additional set or move up to the MK II version.

These headphones replaced a pair of Koss Rኬs which kept breaking. They're compact, really feel sturdy and nicely-created, and the sound top quality is fantastic! I had to do a tiny adjusting to get them comfy with my big(ish) ears but when I lastly got it I haven't took them off! And they seriously WILL maintain your ears warm, but it doesn't bother me in the least. Possibly it has just a *little* too a lot bass. Rather of a great, crisp, POW from, say a pistol, I get a tiny bass kick in with it which turns out to be one thing like...FHWOW! Not counting off for this although. Price went down บ not even a day after I ordered these. NewEgg graciously matched the price tag and refunded me บ bucks.

-They look cool-Mic can be detached -The size of the ear phones is WAY also little. I've under no circumstances had an issue with any other headphones but with these my ears stick out the sides of them. They only cover about 60% of each and every ear. -The sound good quality is awful. I mainly comes from the bass. Challenging to describe but they produced a simulated bass so that it doesn't distort but creates a bass like sound effect. The net result is an awful sound that isn't bass and isn't a very good substitute and just sounds awful. -The cord, whilst extended, is of poor good quality. It's a generic plastic covered cord. My individual preferred headset ever was the Steel Series 5H V2. Though this set is twice as costly, it's simply worth the price tag. They are a high top quality sturdy set of headphones and properly worth the added investment.

The looks are pretty decent, has a removable microphone (however may grow to be an concern with misplacing it), maintains sound quality at max volume. Velvet pads are soft and the inline is tiny and manageable. Though the good factors might seem adequate to invest in it, I will put it in point of view. Even though it maintains the sound excellent at its max volume, that volume level is hardly any at all. . On other equivalent headsets of about the same price tag range I have applied, the maximum volume on the Fatal1ty's is about half of the comparable sets. Although the pads are soft about the ears, they are extremely modest and are not correct circumaural . I do have small ears and am able to put on them more than them nevertheless the inside ear cup is difficult and provides me headaches over prolonged use. Also the cord is incredibly thin and the cups don't swivel. These sort of points might be acceptable discomforts in cheaper headsets, even so, at least for myself, the โ I payed for them is not worth these complications. DO NOT GET THESE IF YOU HAVE A Massive CRANIUM! That being stated you will not even be in a position to get them around your ears. I do not fully grasp why this headset is โ. Its doable that Creative thought that Fatal1ty's name adequate is worth boosting the price of the headset by ษ. I am truly fairly surprised that I didn't delight in this pair since I have owned the SoundBlaster series and other Inventive headsets and I was perfectly satisfied.

Mic sound high quality is extremely very good. Light to wear. Very good sound and fairly high sound level prior to every little thing begins blending. Some say the plastic is flimsy but the headset can survive several drops on a carpet floor with no difficulties. The ear cups are pretty modest and the padding could use a tiny additional to make a greater seal about the ear. The windscreen for the mic fell off and has been MIA considering that about a week right after I got the headset. Loud outside the headset location. Turn them all the way up and everybody with fantastic/normal ears in the room will be in a position to clearly hear what you are hearing. All in all even though fantastic set for the value. Maybe the greatest. Creative generally does a pretty very good job on their sound high quality.

This headset will take a beating like no other. I have had this for pretty much 2 years now and let me tell you, it has not been a uncomplicated ride for my headset but it stepped up to the task at every smack in the face. This is my first review on anything I have bought from newegg just because I am so satisfied with it. I use it as head phones for music as nicely as hardcore gaming. No distortion as soon as so ever. My small brother and his pals have stepped on it, sat on it, spilled siht on it, my mom has tripped over it yanking it out of the back of my computer system, off my head, and yet it nevertheless functions like the initially day I got it. I adore listening to music with it hooked to my stereo for a lot more power, but when I do this sometimes, yes even I, forget its plugged in and I turn up my stereo seriously LOUD and my speakers sound incredibly faint, but seriously it my headset becoming BLASTED with power to the point of extreme distortion, yet no speaker damage at all, they still sound awesome The foam on the end comes off straightforward, I lost my lengthy ago but it doesn't appear to be any various. Enjoy the volume/mic mute inline manage. Yep, I advocate for acquire. The last dollars you will ever spend on a laptop or computer headset.

These are the most comfy headphones I've ever worn. You put them on and won't know that they are there. Personally, for my head the tension against my head is just sufficient to hold them on with no slipping, but not enough tension for me to really feel uncomfortable pressure. The velvet on the ear's is amazing. Sometimes I put them on just to keep my ears good and toasty on a cold day.I've had no problems with the plugs. I weigh about 280-290, and I've ran the cord over with the full weight of my physique about 20 occasions or so (probably more) and the rubber on the cord if bent at all is only bent slightly. It hasn't affected the sound top quality what so ever. The sound top quality...I could write about this for hours. It's good, when playing BFBC2 I can pinpoint players behind objects (when in close combat circumstances). So I very easily get the jump on them 80-85% of the time. These items can get ridiculously loud and still stay incredibly clear. *Continued in other thoughts section* The cord being so extended is somewhat of a pain due to me operating it more than, but the cord on my other headphones was so short I had to keep my chair in a particular position close tot he desk so I wouldn't pull on it. so I undoubtedly can't complain, and definitely not worth an egg knocking. Overall these factors are just good. I went from a cheapo headset to these and if they broke tomorrow it would be cash well spent. Oh and I have a poopy bargain 15 dollar sound card (onboard went out) and stuff nevertheless sounds fantastic so I can definitely vouch for these headphones becoming wonderful even without some fancy 200 dollar sound card. Even even though if you paired these up with a high finish Creative card then the sound would in all probability be stellar.

Mic is superior excellent, speakers are O.K. compared to what I've been utilizing. Windows is fussy with sound devices, and my Asus Through drivers leave much to be desired, but the difficulty with the headset is that it has a little notch that a projecting line on the headset exactly where the mic plugs in has to slide in, otherwise you would not know if it is fully inserted, but soon after that it's fine. The cord exactly where it connects to the headset is kind of wimpy. It just feels low cost. but the actual headset is good. I'm hoping, based on other evaluations, that it lasts. I Actually required a mic. My old logitech took a dump on me. =(

Good sound high quality, detachable microphone. The carrying case is great too. It feels comfy on the ears. The sound picks up properly. Poor construction on the connecting wire to the headset earpiece itself. After a few weeks it was loose, and by 6 months in it was fairly damaged and I lost sound out of one side. I purchased two of these headsets, with the second backup for a excellent deal of ุ with a ฤ rebate. Regrettably, the wire connecting to the speaker is very flimsy, and broke down on me. I kept going with it until I seriously necessary to, and not too long ago it busted. Right after spending ฤish to send it back for warranty, I'm using the backup. But even now this 1 has the connecting wire producing noise and is going by means of the identical procedure. I haven't even gotten my other headset back however.For the combined cost of possibly 贄+ (warranty shipping, tax, and expense of each headsets) I could have purchased some thing worthwhile. I would advocate these if it didn't break down so fast. You're far better off investing in a thing else.

Excellent sound good quality, transmits voice clearly, comfy fit (not confident what the other reviewers are talking about) cord does appear rather thin, would have preferred a non-detachable mic Some people complain about no USB, but if that truly bothers you so significantly you can obtain a little usb adapter that functions fantastic for a low cost, and this mic plus the adapter will be cheaper than competing mics of similar high quality.

Price, Capabilities, Sound. Top quality, Portability, Comfort. I purchased these to take gaming on the road, and i have been somewhat satisfied. They sound wonderful! and i like the removable mic. the cord is also nice and lengthy. the only let downs include, they are not as portable as i hopes for the size, they do not fold up. they are also on the ear, so they tend to pinch soon after a even though. for some reason, they also seem to get warm with incredibly small use. the top quality also seem a little on the weak side, i am already worried about breaking them as the Plastic they are made from tends to creek just about every time i take them off.

I really like these headphones! Great sound good quality for listening to music or playing games. I read the reviews about them hurting your ears and was skeptical about acquiring them and I am glad I went with them. I had them on for 4 hours the 1st day and my ears had been fine. I don’t know perhaps I have small ears or some thing. The velvet about the ears feels awesome! This is a need to have if you just obtain headsets from Wal-Mart. Absolutely worth the value. 8ft cord.
