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.

Good
I have Windows 7. I don't believe these are compatible with it. I installed the drivers from the CD and had sound issues. Uninstalled them and let Windows install drivers and no issues after that. Great head set. Sound is wonderful. Mic is good. I've had them for about a month now.
Pros:
- Everything
Cons:
- Drivers

Plantronics GameCom 780 Gaming Headset Review
Any serious gamer knows that a good headset is essential to the ultimate gaming experience. Plantronics has made a name for themselves in the PC gaming headset market over the years. Their last offering, the GameCom 777 was an awesome USB surround headset that combined comfort and performance.

Plantronics GameCom 780
I think that the GameCom 780 is a huge step in the right direction for Plantronics. Extended-wear comfort is excellent and the placement of all buttons on the headset itself is a very welcome change, as is the greatly improved surround compatibility profile over the older 777 headset.
Pros:
- Comfortable and lightweight
- Decent stereo quality
- On-ear headset controls
- Dolby Headphone and Pro Logic support
- Excellent directional sound
- Decent game compatibility
- Configurable speaker layout
Cons:
- Noisy microphone
- Short headphone cord
- No equalizer settings
- Stereo-only support for OpenAL games

Great sound, Great mic
The sound is very clear, you can hear all footsteps while in game and movies/music are perfect for these. The only thing lacking was the bass. The bass is there and it sounds great but it does not have the stronger oomf I hoped for.
