Sennheiser PC36 USB Plug and Play PC Headset

What a bargain these headphones turned out to be! Simple to set up and use with great sound quality. Its lightweight construction also makes it very comfortable to wear.

less than six months old and they have died. Do not recommend. They sound was not very good from the first, but the microphone is completely gone now.

This is a reasonable headset, that works just fine. The sound quality is ok, they are fairly comfortable to wear, light, and they work with a Mac running Lion.

This is a good headset, with good audio through the speakers and good quality microphone. Was a bit worried when I ordered them that they would be no better than than the spekers and mic in my PC with Skype, but these are far better.I have a problem wth the recommended software that is downloaded from Sennheiser (Headsetup). This causes an error when shutting down Windows 7 with an error of waiting for csc.exe to startup!! csc.exe is a compiler for c#, and should not show an error when Windows shuts down after installin a program. As I don't see the point of getting Headsetup working other than it enabling the button on the headset to interface with Skype, I would suggest not installing it, and thus preventing the problem from occurring.

I am totally satisfied with the product. It is often used for long conversations and is never uncomfortable. Plug & play with a good long lead. No complaints at all.

Sound quality and mic work well but the wires just below the ear pieces get twisted beyond fixing which becomes quite problematic and annoying. It also looks pretty silly if you are communicating via skype. If the makers can fix that it would be a very good product. I would not recommend buying them because of that feature however and I am now in the market for another pair.

Good sound and microphone. It was suggested that l may need a foam windscreen but so far not needed.

Looks and feels more cheap and plasticky than the price would lead you to expect, and not particularly comfortable to wear, e.g. there is no padding on the underside of the headband. Also, the microphone boom has no horizontal adjustment so you can't position the mic one inch from the corner of your mouth as recommended by Dragon. But having said that, the level of recognition is very good. I'd rather have slightly Spartan feeling headphones with good recognition than luxurious headphones that didn't do the job properly.
