If they could just stop using that bluudy etnic theme as brand logo. I don't want to see Celtic druids in dreams when I sleep. I have been to Galicia and Cornwall, been there done that.

I would happily use these but the angle of the cups seams a little too much to be comfortable for long periods.

Why no Mic ?

There is a mic, it's an inline one and can be seen in the second picture.

Thanks I see it now, though it raises the question of sound quality to me, but as Fourstaff said . . .



:banghead:

I missed it at first, really i would not expect much out of a mic like that but also i would guess it would pick up on more background noise compared to a more standard (closer) headset mic, it possibly may as well come without a mic. :laugh:

It's listed at 25 – 16,000 Hz

25 Hz is not deep bass... My Sony MDR-XB700's run at 3-28,000Hz and they are just slightly more expensive.
