    While perhaps not as beefy or sturdy as Logitech's G35, I've encountered no issues with the test unit. However, I can see where the headphone ear cups could be a bit fragile if twisted too hard or far -- but under daily use that seems unlikely under most circumstances.

    I might try this headset even tho the price is a bit high altho if u want the best headset that is ,sturdy ,reliable ,wireless and has awesome sound go with a turtle beach headset. Usualy priced around $100. Works for xbox and PC with no need to set anything up. Best headset iv ever wraped around my head lol.

    I've gone through 2 sets now and both times they have broke. Both times in the same spot (left extension arm. I would highly suggest you stay away from this product.

    2 weeks out of 12 month warranty I got this from Creative:
    ----------------------------------------------
    Dear John,

    Thank you for writing in to Creative.

    With regards to your enquiry, I would not advice you to service this unit as it is out of the warranty period. It is more economical to purchase a new product than getting this unit repaired. In addition, the new purchase unit will come with a full 12 month warranty coverage.

    We would like to seek for your kind understanding and apologized for any inconvenience caused, any inconvenience caused is regretted.

    If you still require assistance, please reply to this email and include any previous correspondence to ensure a quick response.

    Best Regards,

    Yoyo
    Worldwide Customer Response

    Good sound. Premium price. Subpar product.
    2 weeks after warranty ended - plastic extender arm failed, no extra stress, normal pull to head. The partially extended arm broke.

    I searched for similar problems, only found the lucky people who complained in the 12 month warranty.

    Logitech 2/3rds of Creative
    Logitech head band made of metal.
    Logitech wireless volume control easier and more natural.

    Disappointed.
