I''m happy with them

Owned them for 9 months. I treat them gently and they''ve survived without any damage, even after some accidental tugging on the cord. I do have 3 gripes:
1) Why even have the LEDs on the outside of the ear cups? The only purpose I can think of is admiring the lights in a mirror while wearing it or so your roommate can know if he/she needs to throw something heavy at you to get your attention.
2) The controller on the cord has a 3-way switch to choose no bass-boost, low, or high (which can cause your ears to feel sore after a while). This switch has always been a little loose and as it wiggles between 2 bass settings, you hear a click. A little patch of duct tape to hold it in place fix that problem, though.
3) The driver can be a little bit finicky. I use Windows 7 64-bit and sometimes my computer cannot use the headphones after plugging them in until I un-plug them and plug them in again. Also, when trying to open the headphone''s control software, it sometimes fails (Solute says "Windows Host Process" crashed) until I unplug them and then plug them in again.
Overally, I like them. These are my first set of surround-sound headphones and they really do improve my aim in addition to blocking the annoying sounds from whatever my roommate watches on TV.
Amazing...

i have had these for almost 6 months and they have worked like a dream. Until my cat chewed on the cord and my friends 2 year old broke both speakers off thare mounts to the head band. BUT they still work with just a lil duct tape and a careful placement of the chewed cord.
Was good for a while...

Well for starters, it''s USB. So that means you can just plug it in and get the sound quality that it provides without drivers. That could be a con for those with high quality sound cards. After two months of treating it like glass the headphones started to fall off. Nothing a little bit of crazy glue can''t fix, right? Now, just yesterday, it spontaneously stopped working altogether. The build quality is completely terrible but for the while that it lasted, it was completely worth it. I guess buying this is taking a gamble.
GREAT HEADPHONES

They work really well. THE BASS THUMPS. Great for music. Work very well for noise cancelling. Great buy for 60 bucks. They are really good in games. I would recommend them to anyone. My mom wants a pair now. The mic works well, nice and loud and out of the way. No complaints. Led''s add a nice touch to the sides. They light up based on volume output of your pc. Great buy.
