| The DSP-400 was an excellent purchase. The sound and microphone quality of this product is outstanding and clear. I even use it with my PS3, with no problems. My Laptop (Vaio)/PS3 (slim), both recognized the DSP-400 and started using it instantly. I would recommend this product for use with a laptop or the PS3. |

Plantronics Foldable USB Stereo Headset (Optimized for Laptop Use) (Audio 470 USB)
It works very well, is light and I can fold it up, take it with me and use it with my laptop wherever I am.
It is the only one that I have had that works well with Dragon Naturally Speaking. |

I have some new Bose headphones, about the same price, and the headphones on this Plantronic headset gives me better fidelity but that may be the result of coming out of the USB port with the Plantronics headset rather than going through the headphone jack with my Bose headphones. On my '08 MacBook there was no installation, it was just plug and play after (doing the obvious and) looking under System Preferences > Sound.
I listen primarily to strings (guitar and violin) and they just sing through this headset. And I appreciate the volume control and handy mute button. But the headphones are better than the mike. I've used the headset to make audio-podcasts and the quality of voice through the mic, while good enough for VoIP calls is inadequate for a more demanding purpose. And ... sure nuff, mikes (alone, w/o any headphones) recommended for audio podcasts are invariably more expensive than this Plantronics headset.
A shortcoming for me at least -- WHY such a looo..ooo...oong cord?

| I often use a headset with my PC for chats, recording and rosetta stone. I liked this headset a lot but the metel that holds the two pieces together bent and them the mic stopped working. the mute button never worked either. |

| The headset is great... However, the USB had some problems and kept on disconnecting so I had to remove it. Overall, I am very happy with this product... |

| I've used the product a few times. So far, it has worked well. Rated it a 4 because longevity is an issue I'd consider in a rating, and I haven't had it long enough yet--but Amazon emailed me twice, so....(no complaint). |
