4.0 out of 5 stars You get what you pay for!, September 29, 2002

This review is from: Plantronics 47557-01 Stereo Multimedia Headset (Personal Computers)

These headphones were up and running in minutes with no messing. These headphones come with a usefull collection of bundled software including PerSono Audio Centre, L&H Voice Express 4, Roger Wilco, HearMe and Net2phone.
These headphones are great at doing what they are built for i.e. chatting whilst playing games, using voice recognition programs for hours on end in total comfort.
Although the sound is of an excellent quality under low to medium volumes they start to distort a lot if the sound is cranked up. If you are looking for a pair of headphones to blast out mp3 till your ears bleed then look elsewhere (sennheisser.com) If your after a set of headphones that let you play games and chat without a loss of sound quality or that enable you to dictate for hours on end without realsing that you have a pair of headphones on your head then these headphones are for you.

Pro's: Lightweight, comfortable, well made, great sound quality and crisp, clear voice recording (my mates have noticed a big improvement in my voice clarity over Roger Wilco compared to when i used my LabTech headset (steer clear of LabTech, you get what you pay for i.e. 6 months of use until you loose sound in one side of your earphones.)

Con's: A little pricey, L&H Voice Express wouldn't work on XP Pro without downloading SAPI 4 from M$. I had to figure this out for myself as L&S don't seem to support VE4 anymore.

We have been trying to find these headsets for a long time; Plantronics no longer has them. Our technicians were excited to find these. The price was very reasonable and we received them quickly. They were shipped well packed and in excellent condition. I strongly recommend this vendor and their products.

The headset works vary good in voice chats. The mic works grate. The sound you get from the headset is vary good. The inline volume control stoped working after one week but it looks, sounds, and feels grate...... It is a good BUY! I GAVE 4 STARS!
