My wife has Creative Fatal1ty HS-980 mk1, im thinking between these and the mk2 of those. Which is more comfortable and has better sound? I find the HS-980 the most comfortable headset that I've used so far, minus the headband part which can hurt after...

I personally had a Creative Fatal1ty because the Logitech G35 and the reason I got the G35 was because the right ear cup for the Fatal1ty ended up going out. The size difference between the two headsets is very apparent, the G35 being much larger and a tad bit heavier. For comfort though the G35 melds to your head with the multiple ways to customize how it fits. Sound wise, I have yet to experience a headset better. Amazing directional capabilities with the 7.1 surround sound. I began to notice where sounds where coming from immediately after I downloaded the G35 software. Another thing I love over the Fatal1ty's is to move the mic out of your way you had to either pull it out of the headset or fold it in awkward angles. With the G35 its a simple pushing of the mic upwards, because the mic is built to swivel around a hinge just under the left ear cup. For the end result I think the G35 is well worth the money I paid for it. This headset will last me many years and I will enjoy every bit of it. Its leather padded ear cups hold all sound in and really block out almost all noise. The only issue I have with them is I wear them too much. I have a permanent indentation in my hair where the headset sits on my noggin. I would recommend this headset to anyone and if you do pick it over the Creative's you will enjoy it!

What is the CS70N headset? I've had no problem with my Plantronics Voyager headset - I love it, mater of factly, I'm lost without it. I find the ear buds to be very comfortable, more comfortable than any I've had in the past - clarity is the best, love the fit. I've never tried to put the eartips on another pair of headsets.

Comfort is good you just have to break them in first. They were tight on me out of the box but after a few nights of leaving them extended on a box that wasn't an issue. But comfort is really dependent on your opinion and preference. Sound is very good in my opinion these are better than the more pricey headsets out right now. The mixer is a bit of a pain to use though depending on what platform you'll be using these on. I got these for the PC and have to change some settings to get them to work properly. Lately I have been using them on the PS4 except the mixer will not work at all for me. Just the headset itself plugged into the controller works fine though.

sounds great to me. Ive never had anyone else on the other end complain either. This has been an excellent headset thru and thru with no complaints about sound quality or unnatural sounding environment. I've been quite pleased with it.

I've had this headset for two weeks now and it works good with my 8110. I too like the mini usb charging option, one reason I chose this over some others. I've had Plantronics headsets for about three years now, formerly had Voyager 510 and it is the best of all the ones I've tried. I've had 6 Motorola headsets and they all were unsatisfactory. I think you're making a good choice, comfortable to wear and sound is good on both ends. Wow, just noticed this post is 3yrs. old.

I can tell you that I own several headsets and this is the ONLY headset I will use for transcription now. I loved the first USB headset so much I wore it out (bought it years ago when it first hit the market), replaced it and also ordered a new backup headset to keep on hand. I also use the 3.5 plug version as well. So comfortable that sometimes I get up and attempt to leave my desk, forgetting to remove from my ears after wearing for hours sometimes. Why? Because the Spectra is so lightweight that you forget you have a headset on. It does not hurt your ears or put pressure on your head. Try this headset and you won't be sorry!

I can recomend the H6. Very comfortable, perfect sound. I have tried all sorts of different brands, but B&O; is just unbeatable.

I highly suggest these. Logitech G230 Stereo Gaming HeadsetThe TekNmotion ones don't leave enough space for the ears horizontally. The pads are comfortable but small. In the ones I mentioned above the pads are much larger, breath easier and are just as light if not more so. The sound quality is nearly the same. The TekNmotion ones have slightly more bass but not enough to matter in the long run.

I have had the following H17, H17txt, HX550, and Elite Flip. I have never had a failure due to the product. I am very hard on headsets and usually end up destroying the microphone on them. I can tell you from experience the H17's so far are the best in every area. The H17txt very close to tie for top. The HX550 have a lower volume that you hear. Only about 60% of what you get from the H17's. The only Elite Flip I had got returned within a week. Everyone I talked to said they could hear themselves like an echo. Also the flip part on the Elite Flip is much wider than the others which keeps it from folding compactly in your pocket. With the H17 and HX550 the flip part folds down and the ear piece you see in the pick will swivel around it making a nice compact item that fits well in your pocket. At the time of this writing you can order the H17 from the Motorola website for $29.99. I am debating on getting it or trying the H19txt now.

I have the digital model. I find the sound to be great, but the phones you wear have no adjustment for size and are so tight on my head they hurt. Further, the earbuds come off, leaving a pointed stake fitting into the ear which REALLY hurts. The first headset broke after a month. The second is lasting, but fragile.

It's great for both! I love em. Now I wouldn't wear these on the bus or in a store, but sitting on my computer they sound great. Only issue is...if you turn the speakers up high, there is a slight haze sound when there isn't anything playing. Other then that, best gaming headset I've owned. And I'm a music buff. You'd like it man!

Sorry I didn't see this thread earlier. Probably not going to be of much help to OP now; but hopefully, it will be of help to someone interested in this topic. I own the 325is and would absolutely recommend them as a fantastic can for listening to music. Movies? - not so much. I have a pair of Audio-Technica ATH-A900 that I use for movies. Why? Comfort. I'm not saying the A900 is the best possible headphone for the job - it's just better than the 325. The A900 is a very good all-rounder - movies,games,music. The 325 is more of a bash you in the face rockin' kinda thing. Just my opinion. For headphone info, check out Head-Fi.

Yes, I wear this headset with two different pairs. One has a very thin light metal frame, and the other has rather thick rubbery ear grips. Obviously the thinner the frame the more comfortable you'll be, but you shouldn't have any issues with even a wider pair in your first hour of constant use. You can always lift the ear grips above the headphone cups so they don't pinch your head too hard. Looks a bit dorky, but feels nice.

Being a grown male with (I would say) an average sized & shaped head have shook my head back `n forth quickly (as in a "no" fashion) and have noticed the Sennheiser PC 310 headset slip slightly over the ears (but come back to center). You certainly wouldn't do any headbanging sessions with them on (not that I Headbang). I feel they have just the correct tension for my head size/shape. You actually don't want them too tight, because after a time, you will get ear cartilage fatigue and get to the point you will not want to wear them due to discomfort. So these Sennheiser PC 310 have just the right balance of grip versus comfort for me.

To be honest, I haven't used the gold headset and i havent been able to test the unobstructed range seeing as how I live in a small house. I do know for a fact that the gold has a better range and battery life seeing as how it's newer. BUUUT in MY opinion, the pulse elites are better because you can make anything with an aux out port wireless. They feel amazing. I had them charging and did a 24 hour game session and i had absolutely no discomfort (as far as the headset goes that is. They will reach through your average wall. I was listening to music from my ps3 in my bathroom that is about 15-20 feet away with to walls. Now I can't say for sure if you will get that kind of reach through the walls at your house or not but that isn't a really big deal. All around I would pick these over the gold anytime. Now don't get me wrong, they're both AMAZING headsets!!

Hello superz. I have to be honest. This is my second pair of the series. The S10 really sucked. So, yes these are much better by a totally new level. I will say the controls on the S11 are not my preference, but I can live with them. The sound is great and the band is no issue. As an addition, this pair comes with an additional band to adjust tightness, which I have found to appreciate while riding my bike. I recommend this headset for the buck.

hmmn that's a good question I never heard of the HMZ until now and after checking it out on youtube my jaws dropped this is really cool I like new stuff and it works for games in 3D and I want something in 3D so I guess if your on a budget get the 3D display if you want something that's smaller and still pumps out 3D etc.. get the headset.
