The sound quality is really good but I believe there are much louder headsets on the market but that's not a problem, if it had been before the rating would have been 3 1/2 to 4 stars , but no my problem is how crappy the mic is, and I know my mic isn't broken in any way, but when you're in xbox party chat, the mic repeats absolutely everything that exists, even my damn breath, and I've never had that turtle beach or Astros problem, it's so toxic I even put on a mic muff and it still sounded so bad, absolutely the worst mic I've ever had on a headset, without a doubt the only solution I can think of is to buy a streaming mic, but this is how I play console on my TV. I don't play PC or anything. The purchase was such a big disappointment that I only bought them because I have the Razor Wolverine Pro Controller and I thought it would be a cool match. Please stay away from this headset if you are at all planning to talk to your friends will be the worst headset purchase of your life
