Summary: Fabulous.
Review:
I bought the PC 135 Sennheiser headset about four months ago. Its a PC 130 with a usb based sound card which i'm not using at the moment. Overall not worth paying 40 dollars more for the USB sound card except that its a neat toy.
But the headset part is the PC 130 which is a very good headset indeed. The sound of it is superior to my logitech z 5300's. It manages impressive directional sound. I can hear what direction armies are marching in warcraft before I can see them at night for example.
The mic is durable and quite good. I talk to my girl friend routinely over the net using it. Fabulous headset for sure.

Summary: Fine, but not better than much cheaper options
Review: I got this as a second headset to use at school; I already had a competing model (made by Altec Lansing) on my home computer. I read about the great performance of this one, particularly the mic, and since my office at school is a bit noisy, I thought paying about double for an upgraded mic capability would be worth it.
Well, the headset works fine. But it's not better than my home unit, which cost less than half as much. I've swapped them between school and work to make sure it's not just the extra noise at school causing the performance difference, but there simply isn't one. I certainly don't notice any difference between the two models -- both provide decent stereo sound, have a mute button and a volume button, etc. If anything, the other model, with a flexible behind-the-head design, is more comfortable. But the person I'm talking to over VOIP -- my fiancee on the other side of the world -- reports absolutely no difference either.
So the product is fine. But for the money, it's not worth it. I'm not sure what "Noise Cancelling" means, but it doesn't do a better job at what I think it means than generic models that are less than half the price. I'd recommend saving your money and getting a cheaper model, or shelling out more and buying something really nice. This product is just run-of-the-mill.

Summary: Terrible
Review: I purchased this headset, and no less than two weeks later, it died on me. No sound came out, no sound went in through the microphone.
Will never go with Sennheiser ever again. Bought the logitech premium 300 headset instead and love it.

Summary: Excellent headphones
Review: I recently acquired these Sennheisers since my previous cheapo $5 generic ones came apart around the ears. I guess these are the 'low end' of the Sennheiser line, but cheap does not mean a sacrifice in quality!
Mine worked right out of the box, and are very nice. They feel very solidly constructed, and the touch of silver on the earphones looks sophisticated. The mike boom can be rotated towards the mouth when in use, or afixed to the side of the headphones (great idea!) when not in use, thus out of the way of the user. The big plus about this set of earphones is that the cord is 3 meters long; definitely something I was looking for in my purchase.
Quality wise; I'm not a diehard audiophile, but I really like these babies. They seem to reproduce sound and bass well, and the noise cancellation works great. I haven't used my Klipsch speakers in several weeks now, since I'm entirely using my Sennheisers.
For $30, you can't go wrong. The PC130 is a superb headset.

Summary: Great headset for internet phoning
Review: I've bought other headsets and they were simply too heavy. This one is an excellent balance between light weight and substantive performance. Would have preferred leather ear muffs to the synthetic foam which tends to fall apart after long use.

Summary: good sound + comfort
Review: The first set of these headphones i got from amazon did not work, but i sent them back and the replacement was here in no time. The headphones have very good sound for this particular style. And the on cord volume control is very handy. The cord is very long and because it attaches to only one side of the headphones it does not get caught up easily which is great for using them with a computer. The think i like most though, is that the headphones are very comfortable. They are very light and do not get in the way of my glasses.
They also reduce noise but do not cut you off from the rest of the world - important in many office settings. Finally even if i have them up quite loud my officemates still cannot hear them.All in all a really nice set of headphones
