Very faint microphone
rating: 2
When VOIP (Voice Over IP) phones were required for my work I immediately purchased this headset based on the reviews and since it was "recommended" by my work. However after a month of using the headset I noticed a few things:
- the length of the mic boom from the headset to my mouth seems too short
- the mic does not pickup the audio very well. I have to move the mic touching my mouth.
When I put the microphone in front of my mouth it still is very faint in picking up my voice. It appears the only way it can pickup audio is if I literally place the mic against my lip. The audio is then heard but my voice comes across like I'm an airline pilot picking up my breaths inbetween sentences.
However on a positive note it is a very universal USB in that it works on my Mac, PC, and Linux machines. The earpiece volume control works very well along with the inline mute button.
But unfortunately the most important part, the microphone is too faint for good use.
I've since invested in a wireless Platronics CS60-USB headset. The cost is significantly more but it has been well worth it.

headset USB - NOT for Rosetta Stone!
rating: 3
Product works normally, but fails to work with the Rosetta stone language software. I found this product on Amazon while looking at a similar product on Rosetta Stone's website. Since it was cheaper on Amazon I bought it there. Caveat Emptor....

The company was very good about getting the headset out in a timely maner. I am very please by how well it works.

Nice headset
rating: 5
We bought these to go with a language program. They're comfortable to use and the microphone picks up well. I would recommend these if you need a headset with microphone.

not very comfortable headset
rating: 4
I am satisfied with the sound in headset. Microphone is very flexible and sensitive.
Headset does not have enough space for head. After 1 hour I feel pain in my ears and there is no space to move them. I wish it had more positions for size regulation.
Volume control is a good idea. But I never use Mute button.
