Review on ๐ŸŽง Enhance Communication with Koss SB49 Communication Stereophone: A Review by Khalil Hopp

Revainrating 4 out of 5

4 out of 5 - Good listening headset, mediocre for picking up

EDIT: I've owned these headphones and the plastic that attaches the earcup to the headband for over 6 months now. broke, rendering the headset unusable. I checked the warranty and they will cost about $10 to replace (about a third of the cost of new ones) so I figure I'll just buy another brand instead. ORIGINAL REVIEW: I have had these headphones for 4 years now. months and consider me an active user. I use them daily, usually 30 minutes to a couple of hours, and use them for voice calls, music, movies, games, etc. I've also had a lot of experience with cheap headsets breaking a lot. So the lifetime warranty on this particular headset really let me down. Comfort (4 out of 5): This headset is definitely a snug fit, it's firm enough to block out outside noise well enough but not so tight that it causes any real pain. or discomfort (I've used headphones in the past that were difficult to wear for more than 30 minutes at a time). If you plan on wearing them for a long time, you will probably need to adjust or remove them from time to time to allow your ears to "stretch" a bit as they are pressed against your head when you wear them. this. Ease of use (4 out of 5): They are very easy to use, just plug and play. There's a simple volume control mounted about 1 foot below the cable from where it connects to the headset. The only thing missing is a way to mute the mic on the headset itself. Sound quality (5 out of 5): The sound quality is very good in my opinion. Everything comes to me loud and clear. The snug fit of the headset helps reduce some room/background noise and really focuses the sound right in your ear. That. This is not a problem for most people and the quality of the microphone is suitable for general use, game chatting, etc. However, if you use the headset for voice recording, speech recognition programs or voice chat programs do well with voice isolation, then you can ditch this headset and go for something with a better microphone.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
