Genius Cavimanus HS-G700

I've dismantled and increased the sound quality with higher quality soldering and a few minor wiring adjustments however the mic can not be saved, so I'm stuck with an overpriced pair of headphones.

Feels nice, the casing is well built, has good sound and bass

A lot...While it's good for sound quality it is not worth the $70 I paid while it was on sale, The mic started acting up the day after the warranty, and I was never able to get ahold of the company itself ; once opened up however The craftsmanship is...

ehh.

Would be a great microphone if it wasn't usb and it actually worked 100% of the time instead of randomly cutting out.

Decently priced, fold up to mute mic is nice, adjustable sound. Pretty comfortable

Randomly stops working for me at times. Can't figure out why it will just stop working and i have to replug it in ; The volume wheel gets bumped a lot ; USB plug in

Great for the money

Great headset for the money, feels sturdy and the volume on the ear is way nicer than having to fish for a toggle on the cord.

Covers the ears ; Comfortable ; Vibration feature is nice ; Sound is great ; Mic works well

I thought the flippable mic would have more 'flip' to it, as if it were on a spring, alas! You have to move it all the way up manually but nothing worth docking an egg for

Great Case

The design is sleek, and the headset comfortable, but after a couple hours of use, I went right back to my failing Tritton. The feedback on the microphone was somewhat terrible. Loud sounds and music carried right through. Even when not talking or...

Comfortable ; Easy to set up ; Fairly cheap

Mic feels cheap ; Lots of feedback ; Sound quality could be MUCH better for v7.1 surround ; USB means no nice sound cards

Durable

Want durable quality? Buy these!

Finally a quality head set with a DURABLE design! I have had so many other more expensive head sets break due to poor design & material where the ear cuff mounts to the tension band. These are great and work beautifully. My friends and family all now...

None thus far

exactly what I needed

This headset works great, the only problems I've had is the volume wheel is on the back and if I lay back in my chair the volume can change. Not a big deal though. The default setting for sound was a little muffled, but since I configured it, it works...

Great Headset for gamers

These work great, awesome sound quality. You can use them while they're plugged in, which I need. Mic works great. Really comfortable, and block pretty much all background noise.
