I've found that Plantronics makes low quality headphones. I got some for free, tried them, and threw them away.

My Plantronics are greeat. The Mic is awsome no complaints playing games they say I sound very good. The Speakers are great and have lots of Bass I just want them to be louder. Any other opinions?

Hi, My guess is that you have 8 Ohm phones plugged into a 600 Ohm LINE OUT connector. Sound cards used to have 8 Ohm to drive bare speakers, for a time had both Spkr and Line out and now have only Line Out to drive amplified speakers. You will need an amplifier. Some speakers have an EarPhone Jack and turn off the speakers when the phones are plugged in. Good Luck, Jim

I know this isn't helpful, but i've used the Plantronics Audio 90s...& i also returned them promptly.

The sound quality/level/everything is, for lack of a nicer word, crap.

I use Senny PC-150s & RS110s that are sooooooo much better.
