Are these good for just listening to music or even watching movies? And how is the mic quality. I need to make some decent quality recordings. Thanks

They are good for movies, music, and games. The mic quality is ok. However, they are not the most comfortable headphones, but if you wear them over a hoodie then problem solved.

Sound is great. Mic quality is average. Good for conversations on ventrilo, but for a high quality recording you would not want a mic attached to a headset at all.

They're good in my opinion for listening to music/movies but they're nothing fancy. The mic quality seems good, I was told by people I talked with it was way better than before I got this headset so all I know is it isn't bad.

Hi Sue. I wouldn't even bother buying these. The sound quality is pretty bad. I was going to use these while filming weddings so I could talk to my partner during the ceremony and reception but my testing proved these mics to be worthless. I would look for something of higher quality. As for your original question...I do not think they would hold up very well with sweat since they are cheap. Just in case you still wanted to buy it =] Hope this helped

They are awesome for gaming. The only drawback is that you have to buy the attachable mic if you game online. I don't have the mic so I can't speak to that piece. Good luck.

what's great about these mic's is that they do a great job to eliminate any kind of sound in the background, there were yard men in my yard and it did not pick up those noises as i was recording. The quality is decent and for podcasts it should be perfect. I only recommend better mic's for studio recordings or playing a concert with a full band where you gotta try to fill a lot of empty space.

They are not true "surround sound" headphones. That's just marketing jargon. What they do have is very good stereo imaging. Very clean sounding with tons of clear (not muddy or boomy) bass. So yes, they would be good for movies, just don't expect a 5.1 effect.

I think the quality of the sound the mic transmits is better than the sound of the headphones. These are not audiophile by any means.

I bought these for my sister to do karaoke, so I asked her to respond to your questions. She said: "I am quite satisfied with these microphones. The sound quality is great and my residents prefer them over the ones I bought with my machine." I hope this helps.

I've used them for music basically, but from my perspective they will be great for movies since the sounds are crisp clear. Just don't expect tons of bass since they are designed for real sound (not like Beats). These make audible things you don't hear with cheap headphones!!

The bass is really good in my experience. I listen to mainly EDM and rap, and do some gaming as well, and these have proved to be stellar for all 3. Also works wonderfully for movies and tv.

I would think so. I've used them for movies and such. You have to mess around with the volume because dialogue tends to get muddy, though. But once you get it set they work well for movies so I'm assuming they will work well for gaming.

It is average quality....I am not a music aficionado but the bass is not deep and outside of the volume controls, there are no extra features to boost the sound from what I can tell, but the midrange tones are OK for most audio content. I listen to mostly streaming content not necessarily just music, so for my purposes they work pretty great.

I used mine on an airplane to listen to music from my ipod. I also use these when I sometimes watch movies on my laptop. Of course these aren't noise cancellation headphones, but the ear cups fit so well over your ears they might as well be. Sound quality is great and they have good, deep bass so I don't see you having any issues hearing movies. They're also very comfortable for long term use.

They don't have a screen, so they wouldn't be good for watching videos. You'll need a TV or monitor for that. :)

I have used them for gaming when my regular headphones broke, but not for regular use. If u had nothing else, I guess they would be fine, but not as a first choice. You can still hear too much background noise. Hope that helps! : )

It really depends on how big of an audiophile you are. I'm not too big but I enjoy these. There could be more bass but I think they're with it still. If you're playing multiplayer and want that competitive edge, don't look here. Single player however, I think these work fine. If you ant that edge, I'd go for an gaming headset, probably gonna cost you over $150 at least for surround sound and not one of those "Amplified Stereo Sound" ones. These are pretty functional, simple, and easy to use.

I disagree with Gabriel. I have these and use them primarily for video games and movies. They sound amazing. The extra bass makes a huge difference.

I have not used a microphone on these. They are best used for music. . Are you trying to use these with your phone?
