"Maybe just me-"
2 stars"

I found that it was good to hear people with but they couldn't hear me well. Apparently it came off muffled because of my low voice. For the price, definitely not worth it.

"Cheap n Nasty......Not Quite"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Thought that this would be a cheap and nasty head set that would fail after a while. But no such thing for now. Have used it for a while and must say I am quite impressed. Although I do like the wireless types also. I have become accustomed to this one and quite like it now.

"Like a Gear on a Wire"
2 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

How cool is this thing- Still sorting out how to optimize the clarity, but lower volumes seem to work best in the console settings.

Can make it come through speakers, comm or both. Seems that low vol comes through best on comm rather than TV's speakers.

"Ok headset"
3 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

The headset is ok but its build funky the mics press against the skin of the neck if u move and then you begin sounding like your under water

"[Static intensifies]"
1 stars"

The audio quality for the mic is AWFUL. Maybe it's because the mic doesn't properly fit a normal throat. Normal talking sounds like you're deep-throating a microphone, and yelling (Very staticky, and fuzzy)

The only good point is that the actual earphones are very good, and have a high sound output.

Otherwise, this is bad, and Mad Catz should feel bad.

"Don't waste your money"
1 stars"

Threw mine in the bin audio was alright but communicating to others was nearly impossible better to find something else

"Not to shabby"
3 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Its pretty cool to wear but when you speak little bit hard for others to hear so best if keep voice level down, which can be hard in team games haha. But for price I paid pretty happy

"Testing testing.... Is this thing on-"
2 stars"

The mic on this unit is better at picking up conversations of other people in the lounge than the uses voice. Unfortunately the mic is not sensitive enough for the wearer to carry out in game voice commands either.
