I bought some and here are the problems I encountered:
Not very comfortable. There was a large gap at the bottom of the ear. Because of this, bass was very light. Quite a harsh sound too.
I personally found the HyperX cloud a much better headset.

Doesn't fit well if you have a large head. My first two both had static in one of the ear cups, RMA'd both and got upgraded to an 800 wireless. Personally I love their products but they're so unreliable I wouldn't recommend them to anyone.

Hurt your head and ears the best earcups are in the logitech headsets by far.
Ive tried every headset up to 120 quid from amazon to see which ones i preferred.
Wouldnt go back to another brand around this price range. Will be looking at a 300 quid pair soon for music, anyone got any tips and do i need anything else other than onboard soundcard?

I bought these and think they are rubbish. The mic sidetone(monitor) stopped working as well as one ear cutting in and out. Trying to return them just now for a refund. Would not recommend.

Heya,
Yeah tried them out, not too bad, audio is a little lop sided (like the balance is off a touch) to the left rather than right ear cup. Not so great for glasses wearing folks, like me. Pinches at the top of the ears and the earcups dont quite sit around my big ol lugs!
They are comfy, but i had issues with that.
They do get a tad hot tho but I always have a bit of a hot head anyway. A buddy who bought them has no issues at all and he also wears glasses.
He was previously using Turtlebeach headphones held together with masking tape and wood strips. So he needed an upgrade.
Mic is ok, not going to win any awards, it sounds a bit hollow with the compression on, and a little less clear but louder when compression is not turned on.
