works perfect with my HD550, I use it for gaming and work calls, sounds clear for both. Cable is high quality with minimum feedback noise.

This is a great mic for my headphones. I love the I can plug this into the existing port and locks in place. My only gripe is I wish the cord was a bit longer so it can reach the back of my computer easier. It's the perfect length for a controller though.

Purchased this mic for my HD599se. Probably could have spent less on a third party mic, but I’ve never had luck with those lasting. This has great built quality, and I expect it to last a long time. Sound quality is perfectly fine for me. I just use it for Xbox parties and discord. Perfect for that. Not sure if I’d wanna stream or record a podcast with it though.
