5.0 out of 5 stars
Versatile, Comfortable, High quality!!, February 17, 2005
This review is from: Sennheiser PC 120 Single-Sided On-Ear Headset with Microphone (Personal Computers)
I recently discovered this headset and I bought it immediately. I was in search of something I could use for both my cell phone and my laptop. If you're looking for the same thing you know how frustrating it is to find something that has both a 2.5mm headset jack and 1/8in microphone/headphone jacks for your computer.
This headset has both!!
It comes in two segments. The headset is attached to a 4 foot wire that ends with a 2.5mm plug. I put the headset on my ear, plug it into my cell phone, and put my phone in my pocket. It's the perfect length ~ no extra wire.
This 2.5mm jack can be plugged into the second segment of cord for use on a computer. This cord has a mute switch for the microphone and a volume knob to adjust how loud the earbud is. It's 6 feet and plugs into the headphone and microphone inputs in your laptop or computer.
This second segment is what makes this headset so VALUABLE. I used to use two different headsets, one for my computer and one for my cell phone. It was IMPOSSIBLE to find an adapter that would allow me to use one headset for both. This headset solves my problem.
I gave this headset 5 stars because it's a fantastic product. It's made by Sennheiser; designed and engineered in Denamark. These guys have certainly mastered the headset. You'll notice the quality of the headset the instant you pull it out of the packaging. The moving parts are well-constructed and it feels very difficult to break. Plus it's one of the best-looking headsets on the market!
Using the PC 120 has made a huge difference in the quality of my conversations. I can't say enough good things about it! Get one for yourself, I bet you'll love it :)

3.0 out of 5 stars
Microphone has low gain..., August 11, 2005
This review is from: Sennheiser PC 120 Single-Sided On-Ear Headset with Microphone (Personal Computers)
This product proved to be great on my cell phone. I like the style, the flexibility and it's versatility. I also like the fact that it's one sided and ear hanging, so it doesn't leave my hair ironed down after I take it off. I would have given it a 5...
The only problem I have with it is that on PC communications (I'm a heavy IP telephony user), people always complain that my voice is too low. Sometimes so low that they don't hear me and just hang up. When they do hear me, they tell me that the voice sounds neat, but low.
So I have to yell sometimes so thay can hear me. Frustrating.
How do I know it's the headset? The complaints started after the headset. And (I've got a laptop) when I unplug it from the microphone jack and use the built in mic, the complaints go away. Sometimes I've had to run conversations using the headset and the PC mic. Which is sad, because I really like the device look and feel.
All of which, leaves me no choice than to give it a 3. It's not excellent, and I can't even use it as intended so can't earn a 4 either. Pitty.
