Product DescriptionHeadset - 50mm neodymium driver. Microphone -67dbV/Microbar & -47dbV/Pascal +/- 4db Freq Response: Headset 20-20,000hz Microphone: 100-16,000hzCustomer Review: Worst build quality ever seen.
I bought this to conduct interviews with Skype. Literally 20 seconds out of the box I was adjusting the microphone and it broke in two. I can see the problem, very cheap components inside and old, brittle glue with tiny solder points to keep the microphone attached. Just junk... I've used dozens of headsets like this one and most of them perish from old age. This is the first one I've ever broken by adjusting and in the first moments of use no less. Cannot recommend against purchasing this unit strongly enough. It's back to Plantronics for me.
Customer Review: remember the good and the bad before buying this...
This stereo headphone-microphone USB set from Rocketfish has its plusses and minuses. It is well constructed and I have a feeling that this will last me a long time. Even the wiring connecting the earphones to the USB port is well constructed. The quality of the sound is excellent when I watch a movie on my portable laptop; and the earphones are extremely comfortable; they practically fit over my entire ears and this is quite good. On the other hand, there's that elasticized band. Yep, that band. Instead of just letting the headset rest somewhat loosely (or more loosely) on your head, Rocketfish decided to manufacture these headsets with microphone with an elasticized band in between your head and the top of the headset. Frankly, I find the band to be constricting; and after about an hour of watching a movie the band begins to make my head ache! I'm considering cutting off the band with scissors to make the headset more comfortable. Sheesh! I guess I might cut the band on just one end to see if this makes this more comfortable for me. That way it might be easier to repair the band if I actually surprise myself and decide I want the band after all! The headset and microphone come with a multilingual instruction booklet that spells everything out although for many people it will be intuitive as to how to use the volume control and more. The volume control is extremely easy and the microphone lets your voice carry to another person's computer quite well. Overall, this stereo headset and microphone combo is a good product that could stand some improvement to make it even better. Remember the good and the bad before you decide to purchase this item.
