I have the non-mic version of thes (RPHJE120G) and I am not thrilled with the sound quality. Are these comparable in quality or do they sound better?

I checked the reviews on wirecutter.com and they said this version was rated best buy for sound quality. They sound great to me on my ipod.

No. These QSC speakers deliver a much better low end response and the Mackies. I've had some powered Mackie's before, not the ones you are mentioning, but I find the QSC to sound much better. :)

I've used them quite a bit gaming(CS GO), and I added the Boom Pro mic. Works beautifully. I'd imaging far better than any purpose built gaming headphones, and everyone says the mic sounds good too.

I love my MMX300 everyone says that I'm clear and loud when I'm using them. The mic is really high end for a headset plus sound is amazing specially if you pair them with a ASUS PCI-Express x1 Sound Card XONAR ESSENCE STX/90-YAA0C0-0UAN00Z :D

I have them and I have tested the pros. The sound quality is better but not dramatically better. These are razers best and are in the elite categor. They are 2.0 stereo. 40mm neodymium magnets that are custom tuned. It has maximum portability with a carrying case. I would definitely recommend this to all people, not just gamers. For the money it was worth it.

No. The speakers were made so the sound is clearer and microphone is more sensitive :)

They definitely do sound better. It's like a richer and fuller sound. The difference in the lower frequencies can be heard most significantly. For sound quality, I recommend highly.

No, I don't think sound quality was any different, and the 7w had a loud, annoying fan that ran all the time. I sent mine back. -- R Carlson MD

No, sound is fine in both models. The second has a good microphone that didn't work on the first type.

The on-board sound quality is just OK, it's not 5.1 . Any directional mic will be good for outdoors work. Sorry have never used the mic input, but the picture colors are gorgeous. Later Xacti models have sharper resolution but not this model's perfect colors. Remember to use a tripod, the stabilization is so-so, but better than later models of Xacti's.

The mic is totally fine - no complaints there. I use Mumble/Vent regularly and my clanmates have had no complaints. I also don't have to use mic boost or anything like that.

With a good mic easy. I have a cheap mic and it sounds like crap. I bought a set of Shure PGXD24/Beta58A Digital Wireless System with Beta 58A Mic and it sounds GREAT!

I think these sound better than the Bose AE2s but are not as comfortable (the comparison is based on sale price since both are within the same range). These are pretty easy to drive using a portable device and the Bose will need a portable amp to get the sound quality comparable to these (but with lesser pronounced bass). The build quality of this far superior-the AE2s are plagued with cheap touches, down to the carrying pouch.

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.

Mine sounds a lot better with the mike on. Much richer sound. Have not used it enough to comment on normal vs distance.

Well, they are pretty close spec wise, I can't speak to how they sound in comparison but the audiopipe are 750 RMS 1500 peak, theses are 1200 RMS 2400 peak, these are 95db efficiency where audiopipe is 92db these have a 3" voice coil where the others are 2.5" (which IIRC means it would be capable of slightly more excursion).

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.
