    PC audio output heard on mic input

    Local PC audio is heard through mic. This headset features lots of crosstalk from headset speaker to mic input. Based on my usage, any PC audio output (i.e. audio playing in headset) is heard by others when the mic is open. This is very distracting when playing online games and others can hear my game coming through. I do not have this issue with my current headset which these were meant to replace. The speaker audio quality is good and the mic audio quality is good, but the crosstalk is just too high to be useful for my purpose.

    The sound blocking ability of the headphones is great but the downside is you can't hear yourself talk and you can't tell if others can hear you because you sound muffled to yourself. I went back to my old cheap Corsair headphones.

    I got this because I figured gaming headsets would be pretty decent for making phone calls over online, which they usually are. This product however made me voice sound as if I was underwater for a majority of my clients.

    I purchased this item because of all the positive reviews in regards to the microphone because I needed one for my online stream. The microphone sounds SUPER low and the microphone length is kind of short! You have to hold it up straight to your mouth in order for anyone to hear you. I proceeded to change the settings on my pc and it got a bit louder but with SO much static. Currently using them with noise suppression and gain filter in order to hear myself in stream. Too much hassle for $56 dollars. Not sure what the return policy is but I would prefer to return them and get something better.

    There probably good if you live alone and there’s no distractions going on around you! With that said we also were used to using the Hyper X Cloud for the PS4. We were used to what the Hyper X cloud headphones could do with this particular pair of steel headphones they were to big did not fit right and you could hear everything around you the quality of sound was extremely low and this pair didn’t have everything we loved with the Hyper X cloud!! So Returned & upgraded in headphones for Gaming unfortunately you get exactly what you pay for!!

    These are decent sounding headphones but I recommend getting the arctis 3 instead since the ear pads on these are definitely thinner and your ear hits the drivers.

    Headphones are good for sound but the Mike is weak. People have a hard time hearing me says it’s sometimes scratchy. For the price it a good set!

    These are okay but did not last a year. There are better options like the HyperX Cloud Stinger headseat.

    Mic is terrible, can pick up noise from across the house, needs better noise cancellation. If you see this review, look for a better mic
