Bad design, bad headset., December 27, 2005
This review is from: Altec Lansing AHS-602 Gaming Headset (Personal Computers)
Purchased my set from Bestbuy. Also bought the protection plan for them. I've currently replaced these headphones 3 times.
The first two times the microphone died. I think the headset has a problem with moving the boom mic up and down.
Third time the speakers blew at the high range. In order to use the surround sound function of this headseat, you have put a AAA battery in them. This will allow you to activate surround sound with a switch. The power this puts to the headphones is too much for them to handle.
For gaming, this isn't the set you should get.

Good earphones, February 4, 2010
This review is from: Altec Lansing AHS-602 Gaming Headset (Personal Computers)
I have owned this gaming headset for 5 years, and they have proved to be well built and have held up longer than any other set I have ever owned. I do not use the SRS feature as it does nothing to enhance the games I use it on and I dont care for the extra weight of the battery on the cord. However SRS is a nice feature for listening to music when in the mood.
This set allows for a very large head sizes and the ear cups are very comfortable and seal very tightly, they are close to noise cancelling without the electronics for that. I find the tonal range to be excellant.
My son gave me these for Christmas and bought the extra gaurantee, but that was never needed.
