Sennheiser PC160 Review
It's no use headphones being comfortable if they sound like crap, fortunately this Sennheiser kit has that cracked too, they sound absolutely superb. Granted I'm a little spoiled by having a Sound Blaster X-Fi to run them from but they are significantly better than the pair of 5.1 headphones I had been using until these arrived, even at positional recognition, they seem far more accurate.

I'm disapointed there wasn't a sexy pic of you wearing these Craig.

Impressive. Definitely interesting that they compare more than favourably with actual 5.1 headphones... What with some of us having a family or at least someone in the house who doesn't want to hear guns and bombs going off with death-metal in the background, headphones are essential these days and it's great to have a recommendation for gaming! Cheers!

bah 90 quid for a set of headphones, next to the 80-90 quid for an XFI set up, gaming costs just keep on climbing :/

Going to buy a pair of these from Amazon $89 w00t. Think i might get a Xifi plat while i'm at it. Fancy the idea of having a remote. Does anyone know if the remote works with WMPlayer?

aye for positional sound u cant beat headphones in games, and for headphones you cant beat sennheisers, although as james said they make the WORST cables ever. Nice review craig.

"Developed in cooperation with Team SK Gaming"

Got mine delivered yesterday. Must they the sound quality is topnotch and they are very comfortable. Only critisism is and its just a small one.. it would be nice if the ear pads rotated slightly to fit. Maybe I just have a funny shaped head..

my only criticism is that the control thingy on the cable is dead far down the cable if i dont clip it to my top its near my feet and i tread on it

but they are superb

Why not register and have your say?
