Review: Great for hearing impaired people too. - This is a fantastic headset. I've tried other models commonly found at Walmart and Radio Shack, and this one blows them all away - and at a lower price, to boot. I am hearing impaired and wear behind-the-ear hearing aids. The headset wraps beautifully around the ears, cushioning them comfortably, preventing slippage, and muting ambient sound. They should be very comfortable for anyone without hearing aids, but if you are looking for something compatible with aids, this is perfect. The size seems quite adjustable - my head is small so I can't say for sure that it fits large heads, but it seems like it would accommodate a variety of sizes. My 8 year old daughter also can adjust the set to her head. Because of my hearing impairment, it is critical to have a good maximum volume on the device. The maximum volume on other headsets have not been adequate to meet my needs. Obviously the volume is fully adjustable, so your non-hearing-impaired ears will not be blasted. The microphone quality is so good that people frequently remark how clearly they can hear me. The position of the mic is easily adjustable. I find it useful to position the mic at the level of my nose (an inch or two away horizontally but at the same level vertically), rather than under it, so my breathing isn't picked up. I've used the mic for the following purposes: - Skype - GoToMeeting and WebEx - Dragon Naturally Speaking - Recording the speaking part for a software demo (sorry, I don't remember what video software I used for this project) I've had this model for... oh, years. I just bought another because my daughter, who is currently 8 years old, was really hard on it (slamming the cord into drawers, dropping it, running over it with the rolling chair, bending the mic every which way), For years. So I won't say it's completely immune to abuse, but it's taken a lot from a child for a long time, and I'm very happy with the value.
Review: Surprisingly good sound overall, a bit tiring after four hours wear, but great for half hour meetings or catchups! - Well, I didn't want to spend this much but the reviews about the voice quality tipped me. They are correct. I was complimented in a national online conference, both in asides convos and in addressing the entire group (gulp). I took it out of the box, plugged it into my Win7 machine, it autoloaded drivers and that was that. Self-powered through USB, this is a DSP processing, noise-reducing system with enough hear-through to let you know if you're about to miss out on the last slice of pizza at work! It's a bit snug on my big noggin but the top bands are nylon, so over time and with a little encouragement, it is getting more comfortable, and the headphone audio quality is perfectly decent, not shrill. In the Sound Control Panel (for PC) installing this headset activates some useful headset audio functions like adjustable AGC, a low-cut (high-pass) filter at 100Hz, which could be a bit higher but cuts down on "popping," and a few other niceties. You can also tell your computer you'll be listening to music (or gaming, I suppose) and you won't find the headphones offensive, especially for the money. True circumaural ear-cups are MUCH more comfortable than on-ear cups are, especially if you wear glasses. As I mentioned, the headband is a bit tight, but gently stretching it out every use will make it better in time. As well, this is background noise reducing but not noise-killing for you. You will hear pages, etc. For the people you're speaking with, your voice and background noises are being processed, and the little mic boom has openings toward the mouth and away for active echo and background noise cancellation. It works. The mic boom swings all the way vertical to hug the headband, and is can be shaped, unlike many other brands, like many Plantronics models, for a better fit and control over your tonal quality. I wish the cable was not hard wired, but was plug-in replaceable, but if it doesn't break, who cares. One complaint (maybe two): The included mute/volume control inline assembly on the cord is too close to the headset, so it won't sit directly in the lap without weighing down. This is a terrible design choice unless the target market is 4ft tall kids. I don't think so. Otherwise, I like this quite a bit... another winner accessory from MS!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Embarrassingly, I have a large head. Most headsets are too tight on my ears, so my ears end up hurting. Any experience from people with large heads?**
A: It fits fine, but if wearing for over an hour at a time the padding does start to lose its effectiveness with my large ears.

**Q: Will this work with Rosetta Stone?**
A: This headset worked for my kids on Rosetta Stone. As a matter of fact, Rosetta Stone recommends this headset to use with their software.

**Q: will this headset work with apple products**
A: Apple has made a lot of products over years.   I don't know if it works with all of them, but it works fine with my Macbook Pro running Mavericks.   I just wrote a review and said you plug it in then go to System Preferences -> Sound then you can select "Life Chat LX-3000" from the menu.  You need to do this for both input and output and make sure the volume of each is turned up.     No drivers or additional software is needed.   The sound quality is very good for the money.    These should work as well with any recent Mac

**Q: Will this headset work well with Dragon Naturally Speaking software (the Home Edition)?**
A: I am not familiar with this software.  All I can offer is that the sound quality is not as crisp for language learning as the headset provided by Rosetta Stone.  I don't think its quality for music is up to par either.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you're looking for mic quality, it's 2nd best to Sennheiser -- and at a great price
*by S***I on May 17, 2014*

Recently ordered 6 different headsets: The Microsoft LX-6000, Microsoft LX-3000 (this one), Logitech H390E, Logitech H650E, Sennheiser PC 36, and the Sennheiser SC 660 USB CTR I've yet to receive the SC 660s, which are the most expensive pair by far, but I can tell you that out of the above, I far preferred the Sennheiser SC 36 for pure "like you're there in the room" quality and the LifeChat LX-6000 for noise reduction. However, the LX-3000 has the second best mic out of the 5 headsets I tried above, as well as several gaming headsets I've gotten to use over the years (including Turtle Beach and Sony). It's one of the few where the boom goes goes right IN FRONT on your mouth, where it should for the best quality. It also has nice big earpieces, which can be good if you're seeking a bit of isolation from your environment for listening. Noise reduction wise, though, the LX-6000 has some additional circuitry this doesn't. However, that comes with a higher amount of self generated noise, what audio engineers would call a high "noise floor", which this doesn't have. i.e., when you're not speaking, the LX-3000 is less noisy than the LX-6000 overall. The LX-6000 also has a considerably inferior mic, which is bandwidth limited and makes you sound more like you're talking on a decent quality cell phone. The LX-3000 sounds more like a mic should. It's more natural and present. You could use this headset to do basic voiceovers for instructional videos, YouTube, podcasts, etc., without being made fun of for audio quality. That's a rarity for headsets, which tend to have awful microphones. If you're looking for a step up, I'd go with the Sennheiser PC-36. Both male and female voices sound better when recording through it's mic, and it's also a bit easier to make out what people are saying through the Sennheiser earphones. But at the time of this writing, this headset is half of the price of the Sennheiser, with perhaps 75-80% of the quality. Since it was so inexpensive, I'm going to keep this one around as a backup to my Sennheiser. I think it's an amazing deal overall. Basically a cheap but highly usable headset which doesn't make you sound poor or dumb. (oh, and although I had access to a PC, I tested this just fine with a Mac running OS X Mavericks)
