    • Sound is good - I can hear much more detail as compared with my TV's sound bar, mic is clear according to those I play against and easy to adjust its position adjacent to your mouth
    • I'm not an audiophile, but I also hate cheap, tinny sound
    • These are a really good headset, bought this as a gift and really happy about it nice crisp sounds when listening to music
    • However, my friends would mention the mic would sometimes be oddly static-y at times and even had this weird sharp sound coming from it whenever I would talk
    • It also produces a clear sound, which I could hear details in the way that I never did with my old earbuds when playing with my Nintendo Switch
    • Worth it, solid design, great sound and finally some quality material that doesn't rely on a 1/92" piece of plastic to hold the entire thing together.
    • The sound is powerful, with a deep rich bass I would not have expected
    • These sound and fit better than the last Logitech brand I tried which felt cheaply made and uncomfortable.

    • Sound is AMAZING, though the microphone seems like an afterthought

    • Really good sound and great
    • Great sound
    • The microphone works well enough for loud sounds so if you plan on yelling no problem but seeing as that’s not the case I would not recommend the headphones for any casual gamer/recorder like myself unless you plan on using an alternative microphone.
    • The sound is pretty
    • That said, sound is clear, but not completely free of distortion, and the bass and mids don't transition to the highs smoothly (like the mids and bass have been boosted to try to compensate)

    • Another day, I noted that the headset made a slightly audible squealing sound when charging from a standard 5v, .5amp, USB charging port
    • For most gaming this won't be an issue as you may not even need deafeningly loud sound, though if you watch a lot of movies with headphones you may have issues at higher levels
    • This headset is the worst I ever had, I just got it and already regret ever buying it, it gave me a headache just wearing it for couple of hours, who designed this thing, the sounds are horrible
    • The sound is great and they are conferrable, for the price they are probably the best virtual surround head phones you can pick up
    • Music doest sound terrible (I would recommend turning off 7.1 when you do listen to music) its just that there is little to no bass.
