I also appreciate the big volume knobs that take up the outside surface of both earcups. They're easy to adjust even in the middle of a battle, with one side changing the volume, and the other setting the balance between game chat and communication audio. The latter is particularly useful for quick adjustments when your friends get a little too rowdy. While I wasn't overly impressed with the mic's quality, it sounds good enough for the price point, and more importantly, does a great job filtering out background noise, so your squad doesn't have to hear your dog barking.
