    Gotta love Sennheiser headsets, I have the PC166 set & it's quality kit. However, that's serious money, but admittedly for serious kit.

    Nope, silly money for this product. Maybe if I were a Fatal1ty wannabe, and spent a minimum of 2hrs a day 'training' for online games (and was paid for it), but otherwise, no.

    cant see them shifting massive amounts of that...no casual user wants to spend more on a headset that they spend on most other actually componants

    Very nice headset, but no. You could buy a new 8800GT 512MB to l33t out your PC for that money (which i've already done )

    Looks nice but for £150 I'd want some kind of bionic ear implant.

    For that money i would expect track ir fitted and a game too.

    Seems daft to spend that much on what it is, only those with more money than sence.
