(from 2 customer reviews)Comfortable, Great Sound
I received this headset last week and I am extremely pleased.
The headphones are comfortable and enclose my ears fully without being too tight or too warm. (I have large ears but this is not a problem).
The USB soundcard is easy to setup and sounds better than my onboard card. No driver CD is included, but a card enclosed in the box links to steelseries website where you can download the drivers for windows (12mb download).
I had a few issues with the sound being really tinny when I first connected them to my PC, but this was because I had not pushed the connector into the usb sound card far enough, it is a little tight, but once seated correctly the sound is great.
I wear glasses, but this is also not an issue, wearing these for 8 hours while at work and I hardly notice they are their (Apart from the sound).
Definitely worth the money.
