My expectations:
- Games that you can play more than 2-4 hours with the headset
- Music playback for long hours of relaxation
- Voice Over IP compatible
- 5.1 Sound or higher (7.1)
- Have a good price / performance ratio.
My expectations were met except for one little thing.
Advantage:
- Headset is not too heavy for longer hours
- Excellent 5.1 or 7.1 digital sound quality (via a regulator controlled is on the USB device.)
- Via USB to a laptop or PC (if the PC is on the ground should be here a USB extension cable or her unit are right next to the PC or on the PC as the USB cable is not very long for unity for headphones and microphone)
- Drivers adapt so on (at least for Windows Vista with me so) that the pull of the USB connector standard audio playback is selected. With my laptop are the laptop speakers. (I've even Logitech X-540 5.1 PC Speaker System 70W RMS speakers that are just as quick to slot in via USB or off The last be inserted as selected CAUTION:.. Runs a reproduction already and a device is plugged in via USB must are stops playing and restarted for the sound running over it.)
- The headset is a volume control that is very easy and quick to use. (Rules Finally no laptop keys for up and down or adjustments to the volume controls in the system itself more.)
- Right ear cup can be rotated forward or back away so that the ear is free.
- Sufficiently extendable for larger heads
- Good quality and workmanship
- Ears (if they cover see the disadvantage point) cover about 90% of the external noise from).
- IMPORTANT: The headset supports himself while listening to talking. (At least in Vista) then click> Sound in the open tab playback headset Sennheiser 3D G4ME1 and then at the bottom of properties (not configuration) or double - that easy in the control panel on. In now open window above select the tab level. There, activate the microphones. (Did it set between 50-60 so I do not to hear me loud. So limits upwards loosely present.)
Disadvantage
- Ears are normal size, so that what get with larger ears or average-sized problems. For me it is, but the pressure is annoying to the ears at the points is to my glasses. Thus it expresses when not seated properly but very. (Do I have to just be careful.) Otherwise, they cover well.
Padding (space for the ears) Diameter: 3.8 to 4cm
Width of the foam edge: 2 cm
Length of the cable from the headset to the USB device: 195cm
I would recommend the headset for gamers since the playing of games is very accurate even with 7.1 sound.
So far I could not find anything negative. The microphones quality is very very good. Skype, Teamspeak, MSN and other language tools tested. Highly recommended by clear sound.
Although the one drawback still 5 star because it was better I expected.
Hope could help some.
