From the Review:
"As a rule, Sony Playstation accessories (and Sony products in general) are well-designed and very functional. Their bluetooth headset, for instance, is a great way to stay in the game with voice chat (and the unit can be paired with your mobile phone). Sony returns to its sonic roots and applies their knowledge to the gaming sphere with the new Sony Playstation 3 Wireless Stereo Headset; it is consistent with the quality and performance that you would expect from Sony."
GamerFitNation's Blackbible reviews the Wireless Stereo Headset.
"The Wireless Stereo Headset by Sony is a masterful device for any gamer looking to get in the zone while playing an online game. Is it worth the steep $99.99 price point? Find out in our review!"
I have one of these and it is highly recommended. Great sound, you'll hear things you've never heard in a game you've played for hours on end.
Got one too , and it's easily one of the best and for a fair price . But i dunno if giving it 10/10 is a favor .
Sound is great for the price , but not perfect . ANd there are a few design flaws that could annoy folks . The mic can't be entirely hidden so when using the headset , especially in the dark , you can notice from the corner of the eye , the blue led being ON .
I dont care but i've seen people being driven "nuts" by it .
Also there have been a few audio glitches caused by the most recent firmware updates
Great headset, they sound great and not only can you use it for games and movies but you can use this headset with mac and pc. What isn't there to love about this headset.
Sold my Turtle Beach PX21's and bought these a couple months ago. Wish I would have made that choice A LONG TIME AGO. Highly recommend this Sony headset, its amazing!
I have these same headphones and I love them. I only wish they had slightly better bass, but besides that there the best in its price range.
AnalogHype brings you the first look at the prices that Sony will be offering their discounted PS3 accessories for their sale that runs from 12-26 to 1/21/12
The stereo headset is def worth it at 50. I bought it at 100 and its worth it to me. I might get another one for my girl.
So is the headset 49.99 or not? all the online stores have it listed at 89.99+ as of right now.
If it was a value at $99 it's a steal at $50. I use them a lot on my pc & ps3. It even works on win XP with simple plug & play.
If you hate to see wires dangling about, get this sony wireless headset then. The range seemed (to me) in excess of 30 feet despite WIFI & 6ghz cordless phones.
The sound quality even made me put down my skull candy titan's (nylon ver) and are very comfortible.

Ever since it was first released, the PlayStation 3 has faced criticism for the inconsistency with which players use voice-comms when playing online. The console has never come with an in-box mic, and although it supports all manner of bluetooth devices, you can never be sure of how much chat you will be faced with from game to game, session to session. Though the launch of the PlayStation Wireless Stereo Headset alone is unlikely to buck this trend, if you’re looking for a nicely packaged headphone and microphone combination, this may well be the product for you.
Excellent, unbiased review. I've been in the market for a headset such as this for a while and have been on the fence about getting this one given it suited my price range and expectations. Having read this review, it's clear it suits my needs.
Hey scotty, Ive been on the fence as well on getting this or the trittons ax 720's, but im undecided on which 1, what would you recommend me? or any1 else that reads this? which is better for the price thanks.
Picked these up when Amazon had them for around 60. I love these headphones. The review sums it's up perfectly. Comfortable and in my opinion the sound is great. Battlefield 3 is epic with these.
I'm on a drug called, "Charlie Sheen".
The article says that the headphones had deep low bass. It was a lie. It barely had any bass, I'm not saying it doesn't have any; but barely has.
The sound quality isn't anything special. Let me say this, It does have crystal clear highs and mids, but the sound quality itself is average.
The REAL selling point it has is the 7.1 surround. Where else can you find a 7.1 headset that is bellow $100?
no where.
@kortin - No lie - there is certainly bass. The difference between a Honda Civic and a Dodge Challenger in GT5 is VERY noticeable.
