Plantronics EAR CUSHION - LEATHER ( 19025-01 ) Review

These ear cushions were purchased to replace ones my dog ate. Really.

They are much more comfortable than the originals were (those were foam -yuck!), and while harder to put on the earphones than foam ones, they are no harder to put on than any other of their type (vinyl).

The only complaint I have is that they are not really leather - they're vinyl, so they're not actually porous and don't actually wick perspiration away. They don't make your ears really sweaty after all-day use, but the product title does say LEATHER.

Plantronics .Audio 85 Foldable Stereo Headset for MAC (White) Review

I can wear the AKG for whole day but I can not wear this 85 for 5 minutes. The hard frame just touches the top left and top right corners of my head, making me feel uncomfortable. After trying for several positions, I know that it is just not fit. I throw it away, without any willing to try to listen to the sound.

They said it is for Apple. Only the color looks like. Not the structure design.

Plantronics CS50 900 MHz Wireless Office Headset System Review

Workmanship is top notch. It works first time, easy to put in the cradle, comes with many different earpieces. But this and the CS55 have the same problem: tinny Plantronics sound. Better get the Jabra GN9350e instead, which has significantly better, more natural sound quality when you speak. Also, the earphone on the Plantronics is MUCH worse than the Jabra. CS50/55 both work well with Skype, as does the Jabra. But both perform much worse with Teamspeak. Probably a Teamspeak issue; wired headsets will give much better quality with TS.

Plantronics H81 H81 Tristar Voice Tube Review

I've been using a tri-star headset at home for several years. I like it so much that now I'm buying a second one to use at work. If you don't like the idea of having a bulky headset or a band that goes across the top of your head, then this headset is perfect for you. It fits right over your ear and is very comfortable, even for those long conference calls.

Voice pickup and sound quality is top-notch. You will need an amplifier of some sort. I've been able to get mine to work with a Cisco IP phone and a Polycom phone with simple adapter cables, so check your phone first to see if it has headset support built in.

Highly recommended!

Plantronics MX505 FOR USE WITH ( MX500C ) Review

We bought and returned 4 different phone headsets before we finally found the MX500C. We started with one of those bluetooth earpieces with the microphone right next to your ear. The problem with those is that the microphone is too far from the mouth to pick up your voice without also picking up all the annoying background noise. It also cuts in and out all the time. Most people only care what their earpiece sounds in their own ear, but nobody tells them that they sound terrible on the other end. The MX500C is great because the microphone comes down right by your mouth. It has a wind screen to cut down on wind or A/C noise in your car. It fits on different sized ears and is very comfortable to wear. The only drawback is that it's not wireless, we can sacrifice having a wire for comfort and sound quality.

Plantronics M22 Amplifier Review

Overall good product. Setting up for a different type of phone line was quick and easy.
I have two issues with this device:
- an AC adapter is not included in the package!
- It was not stated that you don't necessarily need a Plantronics headset to connect the amplifier (which resulted in me buying one, when I already had one from a different brand)

Plantronics Mobile Headset Amplifier with 2.5mm Plug Review

This is a basic amplifier. It works with standard corded headsets. I use it in my car as I am an old machinegunner with hearing loss. It takes a second to cut in but amplifies well. The batteries are inexpensive online or at Walmart. Best solution out there if your fone is too quiet.

Plantronics H41 H41 Mirage Voice Tube Review

I've owned and used a Mirage headset for over a decade. Other than the cable simply wearing out through use and abuse, I've had no problems. I originally got this when I was spending 6-8 hours a day on the phone. This was the unit recommended to me, and I found it to be exactly as described. It's comfortable enough that I find myself wearing it for hours on end, even when I'm not on the phone anymore. I've never had problems with volume or clarity, nor have others on the other end.

As with most professional headsets, this uses a special plug, so you can't connect it with just any phone. Most phones will require the use of an adapter cable or an amplifier. The plug allows you to disconnect the headset (say to get something off the printer or fax machine) without disconnecting the call - it's the equivalent of putting the phone on mute. While this may not seem like much, it's much more convenient than taking the headset off and then putting it back on.

It works well with any of the Plantronics amplifiers, but its even more convenient if you find the phone-specific cord that allows you to connect it directly to the phone without an amplifier. On the Avaya phones at work, they have a separate jack and button on the phone for a headset which makes this headset fully integrated.

If you spend a lot of time on the phone, this is one investment well worth it.

Plantronics Audio 480 Virtual Phone Booth Earbuds Review

Pros:

1. Fairly good build quality;
2. clean sound;
3. light and portable;
4. comes with a USB sound card;
5. quite effective sound insulation;
6. short and light cable suitable for laptop;
7. in-line volume and mic control.
8. a nice travel case.

Cons:

1. Very uncomfortable to wear. The ear tab must be properly placed to stabilize the thing, but when it's placed stably, it is quite uncomfortable to wear. To me, 15 minutes was too long. I have a Plantronics MX510 which can be worn for hours without noticeable discomfort.

2. The soft cover (white) over the earbuds can easily fall off and get lost. I used other microphones that have a similar design and know it will happen. If you use it frequently and you're not a super organized and careful person, I'd be surprised that you still have that earbud cover after several months of use. Once you lose the cover, the whole thing becomes useless because it cannot be stabilized on your ear.

3. The microphone isn't a sensitive type. The input volume is quite low. But on the positive side, the sound is pretty clean, especially when it's used with a USB sound card that comes with the headset.

4. The idea of sound insulation really does not go very well with a microphone. It's great for listening only, but it feels awful when you speak to microphone when the your ear canal is blocked by the earbud. If you have experienced ear discomfort during airplane takeoff or landing, you get the idea how this microphone feels when you listen and speak at the same time. But this is not a problem of this model in particular, but rather a common problem for this type of design. You may get used to it, but I can't.

5. You'd need an extension cord if you want to use it with a desktop. But this is no fault of the headset itself, because it is designed for laptops, and for which purpose the short cord is actually a benefit.

6. Too expensive. Amazon has it for about $60. I think $20-$30 would be fair for a product like this.

Plantronics Voyager 510Sl Voyager Bluetooth Headset System with Automatic Lifter and AC/DC Charger Review

In my business my employees and I need to have cordless phones. I purchased the RCA system that is available here (with cordless units that need to link to the base units). After replacing all the cordless units multiple times with tech-support over a year and then having the warranty expire I felt the need to find another more reliable system. I found the Panasonic 4 line system with cordless handsets, but the reviews reminded me of my problems with RCA....so no go.

I splurged and bought a true business system from ESI. Awesome and it does more than we ever thought we could have.....except for the cordless handsets. At $500.00 a crack we could not afford the digital cordless units.

But then I find the Plantronic Voyager 510. With the HL-10 lifter it works with my ESI desk phone. I am cordless and HANDSFREE TOO! I can walk around my store with no loss of signal. I expected the 30 ft coverable would be marginal, but I am sure I am getting at least 40 ft of coverage.

Many of my customers insist on calling me on my cell phone and others call into the store. No problem with my Voyager. Regardless of which system they are calling me on....just click the button on the headset and we are connected. No switching from a cordless phone to my cell phone.

I can not recommend this product more highly. No product has been so easy to install, get up and running, AND provide exactly what was advertised. When it comes to tech products that is a rarity.

Plantronics SupraPlus SL H361N with Noise Canceling - headset ( 64339-03 ) Review

I use this headset with the T10H Phone for my work with liveOps. So far I haven't had any problems with it. I really like the flexibility of being able to turn the ear pieces anyway I want it and it seems to fit better than my other headsets.

The sound quality is nice but I wish it had a mute switch/volume control. I really hate the quick disconnect cord. It seems like Plantronics made it this way so that the headset would only be compatible with Plantronics quick disconnect phones.

Note: You can buy a Quick Disconnect to 2.5mm cable separately if you want to use this headset with another phone. Amazon sells those as well.

Plantronics 64399-01 BATTERY/CS50 Review

Perfect factory replacement for my dead battery. Shame AMT made the whole thing so horrible by failing to ship the battery, insisting they had, dragging their feet about resolving it until I got harsh, and making communication so difficult (no phone numbers!). The product works, but next time I will buy it from someone who offers a phone number!

Plantronics .Audio 645 USB Behind the Head Headset Review

Because of the sound quality for both the headphones and the mic, plus the convenient volume control, I will buy a new pair if I cannot repair my last pair. The first incident involved the entire left earpiece falling off and hanging by their wires. I found no way to put it back together so I had to superglue it back on instead. I had no further problems for a year when the mic quit working. I opened it up and found one of the two mic wires pulled free from the solder joint. What happens is if you rotate the mic boom completely around the mic wires get wrapped around the post that connects the boom to the headset, rotate too far and they will break. This is a design flaw in that you should be prevented from being able to do this. However that break didnt happen until 1.5 years of owning it and I had easily put 500+ hours of usage into them. Also if using the USB connection instead of the analog one, you will need to use a "boost mic gain" option in the software if available. Im an avid gamer and when using USB had to boost the gain, didnt have to when using analog...boosting on analog caused too much distortion. Although when using USB I was told the sound was clearer, jsut harder to hear when it wasnt boosted....not all software has a gain boosting feature.

BTW i used these right away out of box either USB or analog without any problems on Windows XP 64. I have not tried them on any other version but hear they work with Vista 32 and 64.
