Digital camera reviews of Sennheiser PC 350 Collapsible Gaming Headset with Vol Control & Microphone Mute
Digital camera Review: All good except the Mute button
Summary: 3 Stars
I dont have much to say about these either way. In general the headset worked great and had wonderful sound. I use these to listen to music but also as my primary telephone at work (VOIP). The first set I ordered began to have issues with the mute button after about two weeks. I returned them and got a replacement set. About two weeks later the mute button stopped working on those as well. Unfortunately I really need Mute for when im on conference calls etc. Im returning these and going with a different brand.Digital camera Review: Amazing
Summary: 5 Stars
Very solid headset, yet very light. Comfortable for very long periods of time. Very good sound quality - you won't find yourself tweaking an EQ or fiddling with your sound card driver to get it to sound good like a lot of other supposedly high quality headphones. The microphone quality is good and it's easy to bend it to where you want it; also, it's thick/sturdy enough to just grab and pull down or push up without much effort. My only gripe would be that the volume control is a bit small and isn't that easy to adjust on the fly, but that isn't a big issue for me.
All around a very good headset and well worth the money, especially if you *need* an actual headset with a microphone, e.g. for gaming.

These headphones are simply amazing. I forge they are on most of the time, and if you play FPS you definitely have an advantage. I have played CS for 8 years 7 1/2 of them competitive, and i know what good headphones are. If you have the money to dish out for some REALLY good headphones i most definitely support Sennheiser, and there products are super reliable.

Digital camera Review: Amazing headset
Summary: 5 Stars
This is easily the best headset I have ever purchased. I just replaced an AudioFX Pro (Ben Heck Edition) with this headset, and other than the force feedback that was provided with the AudioFX, this headset blows it out of the water. The microphone is ultra clear, so much so that I have been told I sound like I am in the room with people when I talk to them over Ventrilo. The headset is incredibly lightweight and doesn't really fatigue your ears or head to wear for long periods mostly thanks to the complete circumaural ear cups.
All in all, this headset is worth the money you will spend on it. A little out of the price range for some, but if you can make it happen, I suggest you do.
Edit: I'd like to add to this review as new information is slightly relevant. A cat decided that chewing through my microphone cable was a good idea. I have since RMA'd this headset to Sennheiser and with Eighty Dollars am receiving a brand new set to replace the broken. Quick RMA service through Sennheiser direct and I'm satisfied with getting a new headset to replace the old.
Digital camera Review: Amazing headset.
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this headset back in 2008 as the ones I were wearing at the time were a little too rough on my ears. I've worn this headset nearly everyday for multiple hours a day since then and it is still going strong. I work on the computer and occasionally game and between work, relaxing, and gaming, I am on the computer a lot - that being said I haven't owned a set of speakers since I have purchased this headset, so this headset gets used very often.
The comfort level of this headset is amazing. I can wear them all day and forget that I am wearing them. Even if I decide to wear my glasses, it still feels 100% fine. The headset actually goes around your ears and covers them completely, and not on top of them, which most headsets do (and often times begins to hurt after a short while).
The sound quality is also top notch. Playing games and listening for footsteps was made a lot easier with this headset. Listening to myself on the microphone or having others tell me how I sound has also been very positive over the years.
Sturdy. This word pretty much sums up the quality of the headset. The microphone is encased in hard plastic, not some cheap adjustable wire. The cord is also pretty durable. It feels like a thick rubber. I've ran over the cord numerous times with my chair and haven't even seen a scratch on it. The material around the ears is worn, but not wearing off. The cushion is still completely there, but the thin layer has worn off - Though it still feels 100% the same.
I've had this headset for almost 3 years, and consider it one of my better purchases.
