I'm very impressed with them. They seem VERY sturdy and well built. I plug it straight into the 3.5mm jack in the adapter I got with my Turtle Beach XO One headset (or maybe it came with my original Xbox One headset) and everything seems to be working fine. If I had to criticize a bit, I'd say I get a little warm as it's not particularly breathable, which worries me about the durability of the ear pads. Also, the built-in controls are a bit clunky and the volume knob feels weird. on one of the large flat surfaces of the control box, not on the side where I expected it to be. If it's resting on your chest there's a chance the volume will be adjusted accidentally, but it may have only happened to me once, no need to worry. The sound quality is quite good, the microphone works well. There are no problems with this headset. I MAY go back to my Turtle Beach someday, maybe for first person shooters or something that needs more audio detail, but to play NHL with my buddies? That works great.
