Good quality, good craftsmanship
I first bought SteelSeries H5 V2s to replace my ancient Plantronics that lasted me 6 years. Complete crap. No base, terrible quality, bad mic. Then I looked at going back to the brand that served me so well, and I don't regret it.

The Plantronics GameCom 780: Good quality for low price-tag
"...really need to. But, the Plantronics GameCom 780 takes care of all my wishes and problems. Costs around £40 (I got it for £35 last October) on Amazon, it boasts a virtual 7.1 system, and it's also a headset, aka, it includes a microphone.
Pros:
- good sound - range
- quality brand
- sturdy and reliable build
Cons:
- padding gathers dust

Pretty good
I took a chance getting these knowing they were not true surround sound, but with various positive comments I decided to give them a go. First off they do look very plastic, they do not have a premium look to them, however they are comfortable to wear.
Pros:

Generally both playback and recording quality is good. Not outstanding, but good.
Queen, Robbie Williams, Celine Dion, Helene Fischer, Yanni, Amy Macdonald, Celtic Woman, Pink Martini... they all have one thing in common. Great music. Fantastic sound. Especially live. And I absolutely love live music.
Pros:
- Reliability

Plantronics Gamecom 780 review
Plantronics has carved a niche with a range of chunky but comfortable and effective gaming headsets. The Gamecom 780 is the latest addition to the range and an apparent upgrade and replacement to the award-winning Plantronics Gamecom 777 .

Do not buy
The microphone is a mixed bag on this one. Its extremely clear and sounds great, however it picks up every single noise in the room. When I say everything, I mean EVERYTHING. I can hear my PC fans (which are NOT loud at ALL) as well as keyboard clacking, mouse clicks, everything.
Pros:
- Great headset, sounds are crisp and clear and 7.1 is awesome
- Well built, decent quality for the price
Cons:
- These have the same freq
- response and LESS bass than my creative fatality headset that is >5 years old

Plantronics GameCom 780 review
Plantronics GameCom 780 review – Plantronics making a gaming headset? Some hardcore gamers may go "Pfft!" hearing or imagining this thought. Though my reaction wasn't that extreme, I did wonder whether they were good enough to be able to make a gaming headset.
