 Sennheiser IS THE BEST! November 25, 2008
Paul J (Phoenix, AZ)
Stop reading reviews and just get these babies. I really can't think of one argument against not owning these. For the price they are amazing. Music sounds great, and for gaming they are incredible. I would say the PC155 model is a good choice as well, provided you don't need a USB headset.
 Not the comfort I was expecting October 7, 2008
Pete Magsig (Ann Arbor, MI USA)
I really don't understand why everyone is so positive on these headphones. I own several headsets, from cheap lightweight Radio Shack specials to full-on AKG open-ear headphones I use for doing home studio work. These are one of the most uncomfortable sets of headphones I've ever encountered. They don't conform to the head well at all. They're pretty heavy for their size, and the pressure on the outer edges of the ear is very uncomfortable. If you wear glasses, they will press your ears uncomfortably against them.
Sound quality is average. Nothing like my AKGs.
I'm surprise, really. Maybe Sennheiser doesn't make the same quality as they used to.
 Almost there, but no noise cancellation and not portable September 30, 2008
Thomas Arant (Chicago)
I need a headset that I can travel with, listen to music and talk on Skype, and use in noisy environments (airports, Panera, Starbucks). This is the closest so far to what I need, but there is no noise cancellation and it is VERY bulky to travel with. The sound quality is good, and the mike is directional, which helps eleiminate background noise. I had to keep the molded packaging and carry in my travel bag, since it won't fit in my computer bag. Very arwkward on planes to pull it out and use. My next path it to get real noise-canceling headphones that come with the carrying case, and pair them with a separate mike.
Great headset July 22, 2008

I really love this headset. It has met all my needs both personal and academic. My only complaint is that I can't make the headset quite as tight as I would like it; I guess I have a little head.
Perfect for Gaming! July 10, 2008

Had these for about a year now. IMO, these are perfect for gaming. The sound quality is outstanding! It's very very comfortable and light weight. It doesn't feel like I got a brick sitting on my head and it doesn't squeeze my head tightly, instead it just kinda sits on top and I hardly notice them at all. After gaming for 6 to 8 hrs, they are still comfortable to wear.
Warning:
The ear cups are open in the back so if you got your sound turn up really loud ppl in the same room can hear it too. Also, they are NOT completely over the ear cups. The ear cups sit on your ears, they do NOT engulf them like steelcans.
FYI: Easy to clean the fabric on the ear cups. Just take them off, hand wash, set out to dry, place them back on and you're ready to go!
