I wear a really thin pair of headphones when I game, is it a wise idea to get the clip pro over this or will this be fine and comfortable?

If you're getting Track IR, get the Track Clip Pro as well, regardless of what you're using. The included infrared tracker is designed only to be attached to a baseball cap, and is crappy even if used with one. In my opinion, the product is pretty much junk without the Clip Pro - I really wish they'd just add $50 to the Track IR price and include it there.

I considered buying the track clip pro as well but decided against it after reading some reviews stating how fragile it is. The benefits didn't seem to justify the additional $. Unless your monitor is facing direct sunlight and you hate wearing a cap indoors, then the track clip pro will be the way to go. Else the standard reflectors works just fine and it seems very responsive to me. No discernible lag whatsoever.

I wear mine on an old cut down base ball cap with no problems. I sometimes use a set of pretty heavy noise cancelling head phones with no problems. You will be able to modify everything to work well.... just take a pair of scissors to the cap.... make it look like the old visor caps. works great for me.

DO WHAT I DID! 2 same sized, rubber-bands looped 3 times over the headset, then pull'em up and over the track-clip(the one that comes free with the track-i.r.) and situate it at the top of your headset and your good, its small, lightwieght, out of your way, and you dont have to wear a hat and have your head start burning up an hour later!

you certainly can use them, however when you look up the moment trackir cannot see the tracking points it will stop moving. its just a better idea if you got a hat.

I wear glasses and usually take them off when wearing these headphones. Although you could probably wear both, my glasses are thin and I don't want to risk bending the arms. Personally I think it's a small price to pay for such an excellent pair of phones.

No. The headphones are awesome and hook around behind your ear so you can go cap less. I usually wear a cap just out of habit though

Pretty bad. Avoid it for long duration wearing while having glasses. The ear padding is faux leather and they tear overtime( they're really rock solid hard and it hurts). The Alpha version is much lighter and has actual soft leather earcups. I own both Tactic3D Rage and Alpha. I also wear glasses.. Look for headsets with on-ear or soft over the ear paddings.

Depends on the size of one's head and ears. Mine are fairly large and I did have this problem but overcame by gently pinching foam until it became soft. The P-leather was not damaged during the pinching process, Also I gently stretched the headband. If portability is not an issue, may I suggest the JVC HARX700 or HARX 900 - large headphones with huge cavities for the ear and are indeed comfortable. HARX 900 has better pads.

Yes, if you have a thin screen (the clips only open that wide); however, they don't get ear-shatteringly loud. If you're looking for something that will blast you out of the room, these won't do. I find them plenty loud for my needs, but if you want it for gaming,for example, or want to hear the music in another room, these aren't what you are looking for. Hope this helps. I find the clip-on extremely easy and quick to use. I don't experience any sliding down even at max loudness. ;=)

I'm using this for gaming. Perfomance of this headphone is nice but you will need microphone to use skype or something.I bought headphones because my laptop has a microphone.

Hey Dave, there is a slight discomfort that adds up, I wouldn't be able to wear these for 15+ hours. With that said I find on-ear headphones to be discomforting in general, the sides of my ears get pinched and if you have sensitive skin it will leave bruises and your ears will look like a banana peel. I wouldn't recommend on-ear headphones for extended usage, over the ear headphones would be ideal. I think you can order custom earpads for the device, not sure how much they cost but I'm sure you probably don't want to spend additional money for that. Maybe consider the Audio-Technica's M50X I reviewed both these headphones on my channel. Cheers! Hey Dave, there is a slight discomfort that adds up, I wouldn't be able to wear these for 15+ hours.

Somewhat that is true. I have a small head and they're fine unless you move around a lot. I still prefer these to other headphones that too tight though, especially when wearing spex. I can wear these all day with no discomfort, they don't push against the spex and they don't make you sweat.

I highly suggest these. Logitech G230 Stereo Gaming HeadsetThe TekNmotion ones don't leave enough space for the ears horizontally. The pads are comfortable but small. In the ones I mentioned above the pads are much larger, breath easier and are just as light if not more so. The sound quality is nearly the same. The TekNmotion ones have slightly more bass but not enough to matter in the long run.

I tried both the PSB M4U1 and the Sennheiser Momentums. I don't consider myself to have large ears at all. I thought the Sennheisers pinched my ears; I couldn't ever quite get comfortable in them. I thought the PSB's weighed a metric ton and had a headache after an hour of wearing them, but they definitely have larger ear cups; I had no issues there. I thought they both sounded great; Sennheiser has more pronounced bass but PSB has a better balanced sound. But neither of those obstacles were enough for me to keep either pair; I instead have the Bose AE2i's. There is a downgrade in sound quality but not a ton - they still sound great, they are light weight, and fit comfortably around the ears. I tried both the PSB M4U1 and the Sennheiser Momentums.

I'd see if I could get this kind of adapter locally. For example, our local BestBuy had one for a dollar, I think.The headphones? Haven't used them much; initial thoughts: pretty good sound, not the most comfortable.

Its noticeable, but not uncomfortable. I find the wire as it wraps over the back of my ear, falls between my glasses and my ear. There is a very slight pressure point on my ear from this. I would shift the cord around a bit to move the spot, or avoid completely. I started to get used to it. It reminded me of when I first started wearing glasses actually. Just a slight new pressure point. I will try putting the MA750s in first, then glasses on top as J. Thorburn suggested. Good idea.

I find it great for gaming. Great sound and great isolation for voice on the mic and just today I found them comfortable enough to wear for 3 hours straight (it was a teleconference this time though)

I'll typically raise the ear piece of my cheater glasses above the plantronics hardware that goes over the top of the ear. The two do not comfortably lay against the same part of my head. Not a big problem for me though. I frequently forget that I have the plantronics on my ear and walk out of the office with it on... & i always wear my cheaters when at my desk.

This Headphones are Over Ear Headphones. Honestly: They ARE VERY VERY comfortable BUT: 1. They can sometimes get "daunting" if you are not accustomed to wearing over-ear headphones. When I'm at my pc listening to music/playing games/watching movies/etc I have to sometimes take them off for 3-4 minutes to give my head a "rest"

It's not over the head style. It's over the ear. And, as you can see from its picture, is not stereo. For me, the device stays snugly on my ear even when I bike. I have run with it on over short distances and it doesn't come loose or fall out. It's light enough and snug enough that I think it will be okay for a gym workout although I can't really say how it would hold up for an aerobics or dance class or any activity that requires jumping or acrobatic moves.
