I bought this to use on Lord of the Rings Online. I have surround sound and wanted something that allowed me to hear voice only and was easy to hook up.

At first folks listeniing said I was breaking up and then I realized I did not have the boom mike near my mouth.

Once I moved it up where it belonged it then worked as advertised and I am very happy with it!
Good Headphones

I have been using the AC-840 for about 3 years. They have very good audio quality in both the speaker and the microphone. For the price, I am not careful these. I have one in my laptop bag that I use for VOIP when on business trips. I love using this headset while playing World of Warcraft. I am able to play the game audio through my desktop speakers and speak with friends on Ventrilo through the headset. During the day, I use the headset while hosting webinars on GotoMeeting. I am quite rough on the one in the office as well as I have ran over the cable as least 50 times! I purchase a new headset about every 18 months as the padding starts to shred after daily use for more then 10 hours a day. I have never experienced low microphone audio. I have purchased 6 of these for my business and personal use. The first time you connect to your PC you will need to adjust the microphone in the recording panel to full. I have used this headset on Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7 on desktops and laptops. Do remember that this headset will appear to be a different audio card in your computer, so it has its own "speakers" and "microphone", and will have its own recording and playback volume settings. The only thing that would make these better is if the cable was a tad bit thicker and the wind screen was able to be purchased separately.
great product

This is a great headset to use for Skype and other internet phone services. The microphone works better than any other product I've tried, and has plenty of adjustment room in the windows volume settings. It gets a little uncomfortable after long sessions, but that is rare.
The USB audio device does not interfere with normal windows audio settings - it runs independently. There is no software to install. The cable is about 6 feet long.
If you're searching for a VOIP headset, this is perfect.
Works Great!

I have been using this product for about 3 months now. I bought it so that I could use a Skype type service. Everyone that I have talked to using it reports being able to hear me fine, with no static and/or breaking up. Having the USB connection makes it easy to disconnect when I want to use my computer's separate speakers. The boom mic is easily adjustable, so you can get it comfortably close to your mouth. I have not noticed any ear fatigue from using it, and some of my phone calls have been on the long side. I am so satisfied with it that I am recommending this to my neighbor.
