 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. |

 So far, so good.
Makes some noise, but not much. I cranked its speed up to 100% and could not specifically hear it over my four 120mm case/CPU fans at 25%. I thought that was pretty impressive due to its small size and high rpm.
Hard to modify if you have a tight fit. It got in the way of my GeForce 8800GT, so I had to grab a couple fins at a time and wiggle them back and forth until metal fatigue kicked in and they broke off. Every mm counts for me because my northbridge is so close to my video card, so I also had to get out a grinder to grind the stubbed fins off a little bit.
I can''t say much about temps, yet. I have yet to find something that will monitor my northbridge temps.
Overclocked my FSB to 250MHz and it passed my oh-so-scientific "too hot to touch" test.
One last thing: installation. Kinda clumsy for pin installation. You may have an easier time than I did if you have skinny fingers. I got the first pin in easily, but had a hard time getting the second one in because there just wasn''t much space to get my finger in there. Maybe the hook-and-loop system is easier, but I don''t know since I never used that mounting system before. |
