I've had these headphones for more than two years now, they've withstood MORE than everyday useage, they've been dropped, kicked and stood on, they've been exposed to heat, cold, rain and snow but they still work!! I must admit before i continue praising them that i am the only person that i know that has managed to keep the same pair of a90s in working condition for more than 6 months. Either everyone else is much more brutal with their headset or i've been very lucky. Either way, these headphones are pretty damn sturdy.
Sound quality wise, the headphones have a nice sound to them, perfect for gaming and online "voice com" chats. They're also suprisingly nice for listening to music too. Quite good bass responce and no distortion at higher volumes.
The microphone is top notch too, using Skype and Ventrilo people have always described my voice as "loud and clear".
The one negative is the lack of padded band - the molded rubber does tend to leave a slightly sore patch on the top of my head after EXTREME useage - lan parties etc - wearing them for 15hours straight is probably not advised anyway.
