This is one of the better headsets to come out of Plantronic's lineup of gaming headsets, the modular design makes it incredibly light and comfortable to wear. (Although sometimes I forget I'm wearing it and tug on my computer). It has 2 different interchangeable earcups, I find myself using the pleather ones more since they isolate noise and sound better anyways. But the foam ones sound open and good for some simple relaxation without sweating or if you want some outside noise to come through. Overall a great product, even if it is a bit of an older model. EB games still sells it as I'm writing this, not so sure about the future.
