Creative HS 600 - Traditional wired headset and microphone for your multimedia needs! 
2007-11-01
The Creative Headset HS-600 is a nice headset with headphones and a noise-cancelling microphone. Whether you're using it for gaming, chatting, teleconferencing or internet phone applications, this unit is well worth a look.
The set is nicely designed for those that prefer the traditional over-the-head style of headset. The headphones sit firmly on your head, and the microphone head can be turned and adjusted closer to your mouth. It is noise cancelling for crystal clear audio.
This set must be compared to the HS-400 set also made by Creative. While both sets are wired, they offer 2 different configurations that will appeal to different people. For example, instead of the over the head style, the HS-400 offers a behind the head configuration that is less secure but, to some, more comfortable.
Creative Headset HS 400
The Microphone arm is telescoping and the head is easily adjusted. There is also volume control with a microphone mute switch, for those multitaskers out there. :) Unlike the HS-400, the microphone arm cannot be easily moved from one side to the other based on your preference.
The HS-600's microphone seems a little bit better than the HS-400's. That could just be because of the adjustable head.
The ear pads, however, do seem softer on the HS-400. The difference is subtle but the HS-600 can feel less comfortable to use over a long time period. The sound is just about as nice on this headset, and both are priced nicely.
The bottom line is, if you prefer the behind-the head style and the headphones are more important than the microphone, than the HS-400 is for you. Otherwise, look into the HS-600 for a more stable fit and a microphone with a nice adjustable head.
It's hard to find good wireless headsets in this price range, but hopefully that will change. If you don't mind the wired connection, this set is worth a look.
Enoy!
