The headphones fitted comfortably even though there is no adjustment for it. The design easily fits any size head. The velour ear cushions provide a substantial level of comfort for those long gaming sessions. The three meter cable provides more than enough distance and the volume control on the headset is a dial which can easily adjust the volume without having to look at it. The addition of the detached microphone is a plus for those who like to use VoIP software like TeamSpeak or Ventrilo during their gaming sessions.
The Banshee performed very well when used strictly for gaming. It provided clear audio and should be capable of meeting the needs of any World of Warcraft raid, Team Fortress 2 marathon, Call of Duty 4 battles, or any other game out there. Beyond that, the Banshee met every expectation for in a gaming headset with the performance and quality known from Ideazon.
