Plantronics Gamecom 388 Headsets

 

Great fit over and around the ears. Great sound for both gaming and music playback. Clear microphone for voice comms

none. On my 4th set and only due to my children and cats destroying the cords

Has easy to reach mute switch. Comfortable with great sound ; Chunky and well built

None significant. Only minor criticism is that it doesn't support modern 4 way computer jack plugs
