We purchased 200 of the AC-201 for our teaching staff and have had no complaints. The build quality is acceptable and the headset has some nice features for the price range.

UPDATE: 12-10-2009

After purchasing over 200 of these and distributing them around the state we have completed an internal review and have found a pretty unsettling result.

Of the 100 respondents to our survey (50% response rate) 14% report broken headsets (design and build quality), and 12% report poor performance. This equals a 24% failure rate over 2 years given heavy usage.

18% of the respondents would not recommend the product to others.

82% however felt that it was a good product, and 33% of the users rated it 9+ on a 10 point scale.

Given these additional results I have downgraded my review on the device from 4 stars to 3. I will keep the initial video review on the site as most of the factual information in the video remains unchanged. I would not purchase the current product for anything less than $10 shipped now.

Our organization is moving instead to the Caliphone 4100 which comes in at a $30 price point and is USB.

I highly reccomend this microphone to gamers and financially-stretched video makers.

Great headset for the price! November 16, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase
I ordered two of these headsets for use by my wife and myself while playing World of Warcraft on our PCs. We had just recently gotten voice chat via Ventrilo set up and working, and we wanted to upgrade to headsets to replace our basic speakers-and-desktop-mic setup.

Both headsets worked great right out of the box. The sound output quality is fine, both for the voice chat and the Warcraft game sounds and music. Our teammates reported that the microphone sound quality was fine as well.

The headset earpieces are small, but include some cushioning. (They definitely fit "on" the ear, not "around" the ear.) I had some ear discomfort after wearing the headset for over an hour, but it was very slight -- definitely mild enough not to be a distraction. Adjusting the earpieces forward a bit on my head (so they didn't rest directly on my ears as much) helped.

The headband is adjustable to fit various head sizes. Both my wife (5'6" with a normal head size) and myself (6'3" with a large head size) were able to adjust our headset to have it fit comfortably.

The end of the microphone is slightly "bendy," and thus the microphone's position can be fine-tuned as desired. The entire microphone stalk can also be swiveled up to be parallel to the headset's headband, to move it up and out of the way.

The hardware interface (at the end of the cord) is two standard sound plugs (that will fit standard PC sound cards) -- one for the sound output jack, and one for the microphone jack. The cord itself is a nice length, plenty long enough to plug into a PC sitting on the floor under a desk and reach the head of the user sitting on a chair at the desk.

I'm sure there are better headsets out there, but I'd say that this is an excellent headset for the price for anyone looking for an entry-level headset.

Lackluster product. Lousy packaging.
The sound quality is okay; there seems to be some static in the headphone speakers that I have not been able to isolate. Read more

Works very well
Perfect sound quality and got here super fast. I like the fact that the cord is long so I dont have to be super close the computer.

Better Faster Cheaper
I had bought a headset a while ago for about 20 bucks and they lasted about a month, These have a better sound quaility and are way better for way less

For the price, you can't beat it.
Excellent headset for the price. I paid $10 and it works great. However, the ear pieces need to be slightly bigger for an adult, just small enough to start bothering my ears... Read more

Absolute Garbage. Do Not Buy.
Microphone never worked. This product is garbage. The ear phone part works, but that is the extent of its functionality.

Great Headset
I got this to take advantage of the various free voice calling sites online. I've made a few long distance calls from my computer with this headset and it is excellent. Read more

Disappointing - lasted 1/2 year
This headset should have lasted longer! After a few months of occasional use the jacks stopped fitting well - the sound would come out only after fiddling with them, pushing them... Read more

Great for the price
I bought this headset a little over 3 years ago. It was one of the cheapest ones I looked at and had decent reviews. It was exactly what I was looking for to use for gaming. Read more

broke after 6 months
It's a pretty good product during this six moths' usage. However, it has been broken recently.
I'd rather spend more money on a better product for at least one year.
