I heard this thing is pretty bad quality, but it was the only damn thing I could find that didn't require jacks ( yes my front AND back ones ares busted, all wires are connected yet they dont work).

The bass for this thing is pretty good, but loud BANGS are not fully handled by this thing. I think my Microphone might either be defective or broken, because I can barely here a thing when i am wearing the headsets but my speakers pick the sounds up pretty well

Was this thing a good purchase? are there any better wireless Headsets? anyone know how I can fix my microphone/possible headphone problem?

It's times like these where I hate my life

By all means I am no expert on this but I believe that this is your problem.

From what you said above, it sure don't sound like it!

QUOTE

Of course, but they will be in the $200-250 range.

As for fixing these, is there any way you can adjust the sound distribution from your pc?

this is the best i can do at my price range. my jacks are supposedly busted even though i never remember doing physical damage to them.

i tried upping the mixer to this (this is the only way i found to increase the sound) but it didn't work.

ill go return this p.o.s i guess. i'll have to fix my jacks first.

B.T.W the first question was those type of questions you ask but you know the answer. of course this purchase sucked.

i was looking for an answer to the problem, but im guessing there was no fix because between the time i posted this thread and now i read reviews saying about the same thing.

also, i think this is a personal problem, but the usb wire gets really hot. i don't want my port melting around this thing.

this thing is garbage for its price. i guess this thread is now a heads up to others, unless someone can vouch for these.

1) Wireless headsets=no.
2) USB headsets=no.
3) Go get a sound card and plug new headset into there.

IMO at least...

I understand he was rather hard to comprehend earlier, so I'll explain. Basically his soundcard jacks are supposedly fucked. Thus, he tried to find a headset that did not plug into jacks, and this is all he could find offhand. He didn't actually WANT a wireless headset.

I know you probably meant no harm, but if you read earlier in the thread, you'd find out that that question was more or less rhetorical.

Sarcasm and teh internetz don't go hand in hand I guess.

and again like someone said earlier, I had no choice. i didn't want to buy a new sound card but I wanted a working headset. I didn't care if they were cheap so long as they worked. These were not to cheap ( in fact 20 dollars more, what a rip) but they were wireless.

Too bad they suck Donkey balls.

Oh and I think the USB thing is a defect. it get's damn hot (DAMN hot) out of no where. This seems to be a problem with many USB related products.

This is exactly what has been going on through the entire thread, and it's not the first time either.
You come to us for advice..you just spell out what you want to get, and then ask us if it is okay, and we have to explain why it isn't. That's the world upside down.. If you would just say 'hey guys, I have an X amount of money, what should I buy?' Then this would be over in 2-3 posts, not 2-3 pages.
