Sennheiser PC 120 Headset

Advantages: Great crisp sound, excellent fit
Disadvantages: Lack of volume control with Xbox 360

...Having worked in call centres before I was quite disappointed to learn that Microsoft's official headset for the Xbox 360 was just like the one I was accustomed to, you know the one that pulls half your hair out when you take it off and makes you look like one of the chickens on that car insurance advert, therefore you can imagine my delight when the new Sennheiser PC 120 arrived at my door. The headset ( as you can see from the picture below) goes with the more modern bluetooth style that fits comfortably over and into your ear, you can also switch between your left and right ear depending which way feels more comfortable. When you first see the connections on the end of the headphones you think to yourself, "now where am I going to stick that on my 360's controller" due to the 2 x 3.5mm jacks (I will explain these later) on the end...

Review of Sennheiser PC 120 Headset

Headset built to last

Advantages: Great sound quality, comfortable ear pads, mute & volume controls
Disadvantages: Ears hurt after long use (very small disadvantage)

...The Sennheiser PC 151 Headset was designed specifically for avid gamers who want to avoid disturbing anyone (neighbours and family) from the noise created by speakers. This particular headset will be perfect for gamers who tend to play for long hours as the headphones as well as the head strap are padded with a soft cushion material, intended to provide maximum comfort. Although, designed specifically for gamers, the Sennheiser headset can be used for other purposes such as listening to music on a mobile phone or mp3 player on the go as well as for any other use. With the addition of a microphone protruding out of the ear phone on the left, gamers can now talk to their gaming buddies whilst playing their games. This also means that they would not have to buy two separate devices (headphone + microphone) in order to fully enjoy...

Sennheiser PC 130 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. I have found that over prolonged periods of usage, these headphones become...

Review of Sennheiser PC 130 Headset

Great Headset

Advantages: Clear sound
Disadvantages: None

...Logitech Dialog 812 Headset When I purchased my Logitech webcam, this Logitech Dialog 812 Headset was on a discounted price. My old headset 's microphone was dead at that time so I decided to buy this headset. The Look The first time I used this Logitech Dialog 812 Headset was when I was having a conversation with my sister online. She complimented me on my new and nice headset but she said I could have looked like an aircraft pilot with it if I wore white tops with a necktie. The headband The headband of Logitech Dialog 812 Headset is wider than other headsets that I have seen but it is considerably lighter. It is designed like a double band at the top but it gets narrower at the sides. The headband is actually adjustable depending on the head's parameter. The point where the double-headband ends at the side...

Review of Logitech Dialog 812 Headset

Sennheiser CX300 - a great upgrade earphone

Advantages: Great sound clarity, very comfortable
Disadvantages: Higher frequencies not as refined as other earphones

...Listening to music... a great British pastime, and something I enjoy every day. It comes as no surprise, mainly because it has been said many times before, that the earphones bundled with the iPod, or any MP3 player, are not brilliant. The iPod earphones are better then most, but for a small investment you can get a lot more music for your money. Sennheiser are well known for their high quality offerings, but this needn't break the bank. Their CX300 earphones weigh in at under £20 and are available in either black, white or silver. They come supplied nicely packaged with small, medium and large ring adaptors for a comfortable fit. Of the three colours I really like the black, which are accented with silver rings. Being the in-ear type of headphone, comfort is very important. Out of all the earphones I have tried, these win...

Review of Sennheiser CX 300

Sennheiser CX 300

Advantages: Sound quality, bass, ability to block out background noise
Disadvantages: Very flimsy for the price and no case included

...I bought these roughly a year ago and they only lasted a few months. The sound quality is very, very good. Having been stuck using the basic iPod earphones prior to these, the CX 300 were a refreshing change. The bass on them is certainly more than adequate. Although some in-ear headphones don't block out background noise very well you won't have that problem with these. As long as you have the correct sized cover on the headphones the background noise will be blocked out completely meaning you can have your mp3 player on below half max volume and hear the music very clearly. Prior to these I'd never used in-ear headphones before and was somewhat concerned as to whether they'd be to hard and rough on my ear. The Sennheiser however are very soft, not too large and quite easy to use. So, why didn't they last me very long? The wire...

Review of Sennheiser CX 300

on headsets

Advantages: comfy all day wear
Disadvantages: loud feedback

...This headset is a bit expensive for its quality. Although i bought mine outside the country for a considerable lesser price, had i known better, i would have bought a wireless one. It is still functional after two years. I lost both of the voice tube microphone cover though and i think that is whats causing too much echo when i talk and too much mic sensitivity. That also causes alot of feed back so i have to press on mute all the time, and everytime i am done speaking, to avoid the feedbacks. On the upside it supports all Plantronics amplifiers and USB-to-headset adapters so i guess i just have to get one. It is also comfortable to wear for long hours. I would not recommend to get leatherette ear cushions, that made my ears sweat and itchy eeks....

Review of Plantronics SupraPlus H261 Headset

Sennheiser - enjoy the sound!

Advantages: the wireless freedom, great sound quality
Disadvantages: maybe little too big?

...I'm incredibly happy with my new set of Sennheiser headphones. I have been using Sennheiser products for years and also this time I am not dissapointed. I love loud music so I use headphones almost everyday. The quality of sound is just great. Of course the biggest advantage is freedom which gives you wireless functionality. I can go downstairs to the kitchen, I can go outside and sit in my garden and the sound is still clear and very high quality. The only one thing is I wish I could increase the basses. The look and design is very nice and modern but in my opinion the ear pads may be little too big for a woman. And unfortunately people in the same room can still hear a lot! But as I said, I really trust Sennheiser for its quality and I would never give it away I remommend to everybody. Very good overall performer....

Review of Sennheiser RS130

Bargin pair of Sennheiser's

Advantages: Brilliant and fantastic quality
Disadvantages: Feel very light and a tad flimsy.

...In my own personal opinion, these are surprisingly the best pair of headphones I have owned in a long time. I knew that i would be pleased with the Sennheiser quality but not as much as i am for the price. They have a really wide sound range and I have found myself hearing parts to songs that i had never heard before. My only concern with the headphones is that they feel very light and a bit flimsy. I am afraid of dropping them and someone standing on them because they feel fragile. But to be honest, if they have had to degrade the quality of the plastic used to allow such great quality to be available at such a low price, then i'm not complaining. Much recommended because of their outstanding value for money....

Review of Sennheiser MX 160

Sennheiser CX300 in-ear headphones.

Advantages: Cancel out background noise, comfortable to wear, enhances listening experience
Disadvantages: None

...I'd just recently bought a new mp3 player and after shelling out quite a lot of money for it, I didn't want to be let down to poor sound quality of the packaged headphones. After doing some research online, I decided to get a pair of Sennheiser CX300's. I have to say they are fantastic. They come with 3 sets of earbuds in different sizes, experiment and find out which are most comfortable in your ears. They are very easy to wear- I forget I'm wearing them half the time! And the sound....well the sound is amazing. I can hear tracks on my mp3 player far more clearly and defined. They cancel out a lot of backround noise too- the early morning commutes on a packed bus have never been so peaceful. All in all I love them. Definately worth the £20 or so price tag. I let my brother borrow them one day and he ended up buying...
