 Recommended by the computer geeks at work - they're rightNov 10, 2009
I went to a workshop to learn more about putting sound onto websites. They recommended this particular headset with the microphone. Amazon delivered it quickly, and it took me about 5 minutes to get it unwrapped and working with the software. Nice.
Very clear sound but a bit of hum pickup from the microphoneNov 09, 2009
I use the headset for doing my homework for a language learning class and
I visualize the sound with a live sonogram display to check my pronunciation.
The headphones are nearly perfect for this task. The microphone produces
a very clear sound with almost no background noise except for some 60 Hz
noise pickup (just 60Hz, no harmonics). The computer is a small tower with an
ASUS P5EWS. If I plug in a standard microphone in the audio jack, I don't see this
60 Hz hum although there is a 20 Hz signal with some faint harmonics. The 60 Hz hum
picked up by the ClearChat Pro is low level and one can forget about it
in a normal working environment. But it is there and I did not expect it; I clearly
see it in the sonogram display and I can hear it over the noise of the computer.
I don't see any hum in the audio material provided with the course, so the hum noise
produced by the ClearChat Pro is not to be expected from a good quality recording setup.
Otherwise the sonogram is very clean over 60Hz, and this is what really matters to me since
this is where the voice signal is.
I would give this headset a five star mark if it were not for the slight hum pickup by
the microphone.
 Was very Excited at the Specs. Was very Disappointed with Performance (Or Lack Thereof)Oct 22, 2009
I needed a USB headset to be used with my Rosetta Stone Language learning application. This headset was actually listed on a pdf document I found from Rosetta Stone as an approved headset, and I love Logitech products, so I trusted it. I did my research comparing it to other models with better, if not the same reviews, and finally decided to take the plunge. Got a great deal on Amazon and received the unit.
When I plugged it in the first time, it didn't work. Being pretty technical, I restarted the computer and tried again, this time with success. I set it up with Rosetta Stone and it worked just fine. Sound quality was excellent, and the software had no problem understanding my pronunciations (very important when learning Japanese). That would be the last time it ever connected to my machine, however.
I tried to use the headset again on another night of Language lessons, but for some reason, it would not connect to my machine. My home PC is running Windows Vista, so to give the headset the benefit of the doubt, I tried connecting to my laptop using Windows XP. But to no avail. After a few days of this, and realizing that contacting Logitech Customer support would only yield my sending the headset into them, I decided to return it to Amazon.
Since then, I've actually purchased a Microsoft LifeChat LX-3000 Headset headset, which is also approved by Rosetta Stone, and it works like a dream. Even with music playback, it sounds like I'm listening to it with my more expensive stereo set up in the living room. I could have just gotten a bad unit, but I didn't want to run the risk of being burned twice. I still trust the Logitech brand and would probably buy from them in the future.
Nice Head Set, VERY FLIMSYOct 21, 2009
OK, I think I've successfully destroyed my second one now. Microphone goes in and out and is otherwise generating a LOT of static. It's not reliable. This is my second head set. I'm willing to give the benefit of the doubt on one unit being fragile. The second one is too much. I'm know I'm not paying a fortune for this, but I'd like to get a year or two out of it at least. I do a LOT of teleconfrencing via skype.
This product can't be relied upon to last. Not sure if any of them can.
Ubelievable QualityOct 18, 2009
I'll keep this short.
Easy to install.
Easy to wear.
Great sound (both hear and speak)
Nothing not to like.
The only thing I could say that could be improved is the design for compactness for traveling...kinda bulky.
