These headphones have great bass, the best I've heard since an old pair of Sonys cover-the-ear headphones I used to have. If you turn up the bass in your MP3 player they can vibrate the inside of your head a little, if you want that. They have a "click" type headband adjustment that stays at the some position without you having to adjust them every time. I've only tried the mic on a test app on my computer but it seems fine. It swings up out of the way beside the headband if you're not using it. The mic boom doesn't seem to bend or adjust but as long as it's near the side of your mouth it should be fine. Played a little Day of Defeat and everything sounded great, the stereo separation was fine. Music, as mentioned, sounds rich with nice bass. These headphones seem comfortable and not heavy, my previous headset was a $20 Logitech with flat foam earpieces which was not that comfortable and sat flat against my ears. The Plantronics Audio 90 earcups are cloth and comfortable. They don't fit over your whole ear but the cups seem good at getting the sound into your ears. While wearing these headphones I still can hear noises in the room somewhat. For me that's a good thing because I need to hear if someone is talking or the phone is ringing, others might not want that. As far as the build quality, they look attractive to me and not that delicate, but I'm not in the habit of dropping headphones either. A little plasticy looking maybe. I'll see how they do in the long run. If these cost $60 they might get 4 stars, but for $20 they get 5 stars.
