5.0 out of 5 stars
Couldn't be happier, January 9, 2007
This review is from: Sony DR-260USB PC Headset with USB and Headset/Microphone Connections (Personal Computers)
I've had this headset for about 18 months. I use it pretty much daily as a gaming headset using both teamspeak and ventrilo and, besides having to replace the foam over the end of the mic, it's still going strong. I also wear it for hours at a time and it's very comfortable. It's loose enough on me that I don't get "ear squish" even after having them on for 5-8 hours.
Sound quality is great. I am usually connected to the same servers, so I find that I don't need to adjust mic sensitivity. The only complaint is that the mute button is far too easy to press (it's large and fairly sensitive) and I often get accidentally muted.

Speaking and hearing, November 21, 2008
This review is from: Sony DR-260USB PC Headset with USB and Headset/Microphone Connections (Personal Computers)
is a great benefit for me. I use my headset for dictation on Dragon's program for dictating to the computer. I've used Logitech and others and the microphone works very well, cuts out outside noise, etc., but I was unable to hear when I had to read something back. This wonderful set does both. I like Sony and for this kind of quality I don't mind paying a few dollars more. I won't guarantee the use you may have for this item, but for me it is terriffic.

Durable and Great Sound, May 26, 2008
This review is from: Sony DR-260USB PC Headset with USB and Headset/Microphone Connections (Personal Computers)
I've used this product for the last 4 years. I thought it was rather pricey compared with other models from Logitech, but after comparing the sound quality, I decided to keep the Sony and returned the Logitech models. I use the Sony headphones everyday, to play really loud music from iTunes without waking the dead in the middle of the night, and more importantly for Skyping and video conferencing. The sound you hear is good with a nice bass, and my phone calls are loud and clear, better than regular phone lines (or so I've been told by those I called). I've also used it for recording audio for multimedia interactive projects and there is no hissing sound like the one you get with cheaper models.
And as mentioned before, I've used it for 4 years! Talk about durability, I've dropped it and banged it against the table like a million times, - and it still works great. Well worth the money, if you ask me!
