This is my first headset. I'm using primarily for Internet chat while gaming. I wouldn't recommend this headset for a couple reasons:
1) The arm length is NOT adjustable. The arm was lodged into the side of my face and the mic was in my mouth. The mic can be twisted a bit, but to get it out of my mouth I had to twist it so it was pointing straight out. My roommate had the same problem. If you have a tiny head you may be able to wear these properly.
2) The padding on the ears is very unsubstantial. After about an hour of gaming my ears ached from the hard plastic of the ear pieces digging into my ears.
The voice quality (for chat anyway- didn't play music or game sounds through the ear pieces) was fine and the volume/mute controls worked as expected. I'm returning these though because they're unusable on an average sized human male face and weren't engineering for long term use (over an hour)....

I got this headset to replace my pair of Plantronics that finally gave out after 3 years of use. I got these because I needed them ASAP and it was all that the local walmart had available.
Let me tell you, I wish I hadn't forked out 20 bucks for these things. The microphone is decent sounding, I'll give them that much. But the sound these headphones put out is not very good at all. It sounds "tinny" and there is very little bass and very little definition at the lower ends of the sound spectrum. People's voices sound as though they're talking over an old cell phone. If you've ever been in a remote area that only has the old non-digital service then you know what I am talking about.
There are a couple of other things that *really* bother me about this headset. The first has to do with the microphone. The first time I put this headset on, the microphone was in my mouth...seriously. It's attached to the headset via a hard piece of plastic that gives you the impression it's going to break if you bend it. The actual microphone extends from this hard piece of plastic about an inch and is on a bendable cable. Unfortunately for me, I had to bend the microphone out to about a 65 degree angle relative to the plastic attaching it to the headset just so it wouldnt be inside my mouth. But that's not all...apparently this bendable cable the mic is on has some memory properties to it, and returns to it's default position after a while. Not only does this put the mic almost right back inside my mouth, but it also makes it rub against my beard, and kills anyones ears that I'm talking to when this happens.
The second big problem I have with this headset has to do with the fact that I wear glasses. I like headsets with big thick ear pads that surround the ear. If you have sensitive ears or wear glasses, you might want to pass these up. The padding on the ear piece is about as thick as a candy wrapper. They are not comfortable to wear for me after a couple of hours. They irritate my ears and smash my glasses into the side of my head.
Overall they'll do, but as soon as I get enough money I will be replacing them and keeping these on standby.
I play a lot of games with friends over voice chat, and also have flown flight simulators and done the simulated ATC (both as pilot and controller) like the previous reviewer. I also am an audiophile and use my PC to record and edit my own music. For my money, I haven't found a better headset/mic combination than Plantronics. They're just a little more expensive than these but they are WELL worth it. I think I spent 40 dollars on mine 3 years ago, and they were the best I've ever used.
This headset it just not worth 20 dollars, in my opinion. The only thing I would use them for is a standby in case your good ones go out and you have to send it in for repair or have to wait for your replacement to arrive. And there are cheaper ones out there. One that springs to mind is the Telex H 51. I haven't used them but have heard nice things about them, and they should be around 15 bucks. Hard to beat that, if even for a pair of standbys. And anyone in the aviation industry knows these guys. I want to try them myself.
Dont buy these headphones if you're a gamer, wear glasses, or are even somewhat serious about having good sound. There are better buys out there....

Most horrible Electronic Thing I have ever bought, uncomfortable and too much distortion, they hurt your ears after 20-30 min
Avoid them...
