[tmg331]

[TheNomad22]

[davomrmac]

@TheNomad22 No ;)

Just bought this headset. The call quality is excellent, I can still hear what's going on around me in the room but the headphones are very clear. My voice actually sounds like me on the Skype test call replay.

Delivery was quoted at 7-10 days but they arrived in 3 so I was very pleased.

They have however gone up in price since this video was made, now about £25 including delivery in the UK.

If I used Skype more often I'd splash out on the wireless set.

Your're a Weird guy

[YuniProductions]

SeaNanners has this one! :D

[MMGameplays]

where u buy one?

[davomrmac]

@MMGameplays I got this from the Skype online store.

[Frizzcanizle]

I'm sorry but your intro is crazy weird :D

[typhlosionDJ]

hah skype poo

I appreciate the review, but if you're going to review a headset you need to review the headset utilizing the mic so user's can judge for themselves if the headset is good not

[MrIJustWatch]

Can you use this with your PS3 for gaming? I mean obviously the usb insert to the PS3 would fit but is it compatible?

[cesarkohl]

thanks for this review!

[davomrmac]

@cesarkohl You are welcome.

[Carlos28356]

@davomrmac I want to get tis headset mainly for pc gaming and sype is it good for those things

[arcinlelapin]

They hiked the price on this from 20 quid to 30 quid i.e. from reasonably priced to a bit of a rip off. Skype and Freetalk can go to hell.

[Arnum14]

Can you pull the mic off?

Just asking because, it doesn't look nice on a iPod with mic on the headset ;)

[davomrmac]

@Arnum14 No, the mic is fixed I think. Can anyone confirm this as I no longer have it?

[frazzydee]

@davomrmac yeah, you cannot pull the mic off.

[davomrmac]

@frazzydee Thanks for confirming this.

[FAMASjackPOD]

can i use it with my ps3 device? it can have usb but does it work? anyone has one of these headsets AND a ps3? pleas test it for me than that is ANOTHER reason for buying it xd thanks alot.

[pdedecker]

Could you record a twenty second test clip with this microphone please? I'm considering buying it, but I'm curious if it sounds better than other microphones I've used in the past.

[davomrmac]

@pdedecker Sorry, I no longer have it. Anyone else?

[pdedecker]

@davomrmac That's a bummer. Fortunately, I found a video that does a little demonstration. Since I can't post links, I can only mention its YouTube ID: nSuORpl0Ly4

The good thing is that it doesn't seem to pick up ambient noise. You didn't mention however that it makes a popping sound whenever you say words with a "p" or "b" in them. Or is this something that can be avoided by using the microphone differently?

[Jar0on]

Can you use this headset with the ps3 ?

[ScottishMTB]

I just bought this based on you're review.

Thank you Dave.

[7677890]

Lol I think you need to re-do the garbage matte on the greenscreen. Things keep disappearing.

[davomrmac]

Yes, I agree.

[HakerzTM]

Hey Great Video Review :) What Program Did You Use For The Green Screen Editing, It Came Out Perfect With No Green Outline On You :D

[kibabiba]

I ordered this today from Skype shop

[bassboy219]

is this headset compatable with ps3?

[Lithian09]

@bassboy219 Yes it is.

[arrow1archer]

nice review dave at some points you can see it blening in with the background

[davomrmac]

Yes, I know, I had so many problems processing the green screen out. After 3 hours, I decided 'enough' and published it as is.

[arrow1archer]

yea but good review you seem to say everything about the products which is good i like your reviews keep up the good work

[PercyBeanProductions]

if you want my advice please drop the lengthy intro... it doesn't really add to the video and after about ten videos it's mighty boring.

[christm3]

Great videos, been watching for a while now but the video intro is way too long. 10 seconds max. Everything else - brill.

[shehanster]

green screening bit not done properly but wat the hell great vedio as always

[davomrmac]

Yes, I struggled with the green screening. This is however, the last of the first batch with bad lighting and reflections. Back to normal format from now on :-)

You should go on national television!!! You're too professional for YouTube!
