I tried several headsets and you really do get what you pay for with this one. I use this mostly for VOIP (internet telephone) and also for some music and it is really great for both uses. I tried several other analog headsets and they all had problems with electronic noise pickup in the headphones and breathing and computer fan noise etc in the mic. I found that USB is a must to get away from the noise and a high quality directional mic so no breathing and background noise. It sounds good in analog for the mic and really super with USB. The headset sits on your ears so of course must put some pressure or they would fall off if you move your head. As headphones they work well but can have a little much deep bass with analog nothing an equalizer cannot bring to perfection in seconds.

I love it, I play mostly Battlefield 2 and I am hearing sounds I didn't know about. Good Mic too. The cord is a little cumbersome, but other than that more than I expected. Very comfortable, No driver install either.

These Sennheiser PC135 headphones are one of the best I have ever used. They offer excellent bass response superior to a pair of budget $15 Logitechs. I have been using these for Battlefield 2 and it feels like a real war. People are crying out for medics and assistance. Plus, I could easily discern between radio commands and commands from people alongside me. The microphone offered a way to communicate with the squad members. With music playback, it offers a similar experience. Who wouldn't want to be alongstage with their favorite rockband!

The little USB dongle also worked very well. I used it for my computer with a broken soundcard and it sounded better than with the sound card... ever! I was really suprised, because I expected theses UBS Connections only to be a cheap toy with the headset, but I was proven wrong.

Unforntunately, I did have a few problems with the headset. My microphone died out after 5 weeks of heavy usage (at least 12 hours per day.) Luckly, Sennheiser offers a replacement program for it, but I am still having second thoughts, because the cans sound so good! I can't bear to step back to my tin-sounding Logitechs, at least not until I get another pair of these! Also, the muffs tend to fall off occasionally, but this is only a minor annoyance.

The Sennheiser PC135 PC Gaming headset is full of rich sound quality with a useful USB Soundcard. It is fit for gaming, but microphone problems could be a drawback.
