Sennheiser PC 141 Headset

Advantages: Good sound quality, cheap price, long cable, microphone.
Disadvantages: Painful during and after prolonged usage

...I have owned a Sennheiser headset for about 8 months now, and have, on the whole been slightly disappointed by it's performance. Looks: The Sennheiser PC 130 headset is an ordinary headset package. The black and silver color scheme make the product suitable for both office and home; subtle curves and contours add to the sleek and professional appearance of the product. Practicality: This headset is lightweight and moderately adaptable for different sized heads. It has an easily adjustable,sliding headband that allows plenty of room for the largest of heads. This headset also comes with a relatively long connection cable which allows free, but limited movement across the room. The main flaw i have found with this product is the comfortability.

This also means that they would not have to buy two separate devices (headphone + microphone) in order to fully enjoy... Read review

I was rather sceptical at first because this headset is a lot cheaper than others, although I didn't really know much about them. However, I am still using this same headset after all this time and I am very pleased with it's reliability. The headset is very easy to use and install (simply plug it in!). You may have to fiddle around with speaker and microphone levels on your computer but it is quite easy if you know how to (go to control panel or alter on Skype/whichever program you use). Features The best feature about this headset is the fact that it cancels aout background noise - so there is no horrible noise for anyone you are speaking to. The headset is completely compatible with Skype. It also is a 'behind... Read review
