Customer Reviews:

Should be considered a torture device [Posted on 2007-05-30]
This headset is SO UNCOMFORTABLE that I can't wear them for more than 5 minutes. Come on, who makes square ear pads?? Plus, the inside of each ear pad has solid, hard plastic that presses against your ears. Sure, the microphone works great but the only thing you'll be able to record are the sounds of your screams from the shear discomfort of wearing these.

Avoid at all costs!

Uncomfortable? Nonsense! [Posted on 2007-06-19]
This is a great product. Amazing quality and very comfortable for my head (which is of the smaller size). My only complaint is that the volume remote attached to the cord does not effect the Mac version of Skype. This is Skype's fault, as they dont have independent audio controls for the program.

Other than that, this is a great headset and I'd highly recommend it to anyone looking for a Skype/gaming headset.

Best headset I've ever owned [Posted on 2007-07-19]
When this baby arrived, I was unsure of it's quality. Much lihghter than the DSP500, and a little smaller. But once I plugged it in, all worries vanished.

This unit has better everything:
Audio output
sound quality
freq response ( very important to me as I am very Hard of hearing)
Wearable all day with no neck pressure.

I would recommend this to everyone!!

Wife loves it for VOIP overseas. She can spend hours on the line now without aches.

Buy it! period.

great listening & microphone [Posted on 2007-09-16]
I am using the 550DSP headset daily. I used the microphone for speech recognition and for Skype calls. It's great! I watch DVDs with the headphones and I am very satisfied. They are comfortable, durable, and the sound quality is excellent.

Pleased with the quality [Posted on 2008-05-28]
I bought this headset to create video courses and for Second Life. I've been pleased at the quality of the mic, especially. I also like the bendable mic, which gives me excellent control over its placement. It's also very comfortable, at least for a couple of hours at a time. Another great feature is that you can use it as a USB headset, or remove the adapter, and plug it into the mic & speaker connectors. For example, I was able to record, while using my speakers, by using only the mic connector. That flexibility was very valuable to me.
