Digital camera reviews of Plantronics DSP-400 Digitally-Enhanced USB Foldable Stereo Headset and Software
Digital camera Review: Flimsy headset with bulky box of electronics
Summary: 2 Stars
Ok to be fair, I shall point out the good before the bad. I have no complaints with the sound quality offered by this headset. The mic is well adjustable.
On the downside, what you gain in space by having a foldable headset, you lose with the long wires (I was only going to plug into my laptop, so could do without the 11' cable from headset to usb). The whole thing was flimsy. It's one step forward and two steps back. The material on the ear piece made my ears itch so couldn't have it on for too long.
I prefered the Logitech USB 20 with it leather-style ear pieces. Even though it wasn't completely foldable, you could twist the earpieces 90deg to make it flat.
But most annoying of all was the bulky audio interface box. It's not as if you can disconnect the headset from the box and plug it into the audio style speaker and mic ports... so *what* is the point??
Basic flaws -- I'm just so upset at Plantronics!
Digital camera Review: GREAT
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought a pair several years ago and thought they were a little pain in the butt, with having to fold them up and the "large" solid piece. They do give me what I like with gaming and music plus being able to hear my "honey" whe she needs my attention. I don't want something that blocks out everything. Of course, my place is pretty quiet anyhow :) I'd do it again :)Digital camera Review: Gets the job done
Summary: 4 Stars
It works. I use a desktop so I don't have the traveling problems other people might.Digital camera Review: Gets the job done, works very well
Summary: 4 Stars
This product is definitely Effective, but not highly efficient, hence the 4 stars. It's just a little...big. I'm being picky I suppose, but it could be minimized some. It's bulky, but if you're going to keep it at your desk or in a drawer then it's Great for the price. Good sound quality and comfort. Mic comes through very clear and crisp. Perfect for Skype chats. When I'm on the road though, I take my wireless headset, if that tells you anything.
I would buy if you're not on the road a lot, if you are, I would say opt for a bluetooth card and get a wireless earpiece. Much less stressful to pack.

Digital camera Review: Good Microphone
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought the microphone to use with Dragon and that is all I have used it for. It is a good microphone. It does what it is suppose to do. My only issue is that I don't consider it signficantly better than the one that comes with Dragon.
