The Good

Where to start!!??? Sennheiser have told us this is the ultimate, the bees knees, the dog’s…. well you get the idea – they’re pretty proud of it. But what to WE think of it? Pretty much the same actually. Sennheiser have an unrivalled reputation for all things audio and this headset is no different. If you are buying a headset for someone who wants the best corded headset that money can buy – stop reading, you’ve found it, just add to cart now.

The Century has HD voice clarity, an ULTRA noise cancelling microphone but is still lightweight and comfortable enough to wear all day. That ultra noise cancelling microphone means that the person you’re speaking to won’t hear anything but your dulcet tones. Great for dictation in a noisy office as Dragon (or other) won’t get confused with the background noises – so this will minimise the error rate. – most of our headset team wear Ultra noise cancelling headsets (albeit wireless) so call and ask for a little over the phone demo of just how much noise it blocks out.

The speakers are made from high quality neodymium so you can hear every utterance. It’s ‘wideband’ so you won’t get that flat tinny quality to the voice – the 630 enhances the voice to sound entirely natural. These earcups fold flat for storage or travel.

The build quality of the SC600 range is second to none; Stainless steel and brushed aluminium parts for lightweight strength, metal re-inforced headband as well as ultra sonic welded microphone housing. In addition Sennheiser as so confident in these headsets that the entire SC 600 range comes with a 3 year warranty instead of the normal 2 years – so you are you feeling the love yet?

As you’d expect from Sennheiser, their patented Activeguard technology protects your hearing from sudden loud noises which can cause acoustic shock. This saves your business from hefty Work Cover claims. It also comes with a useful little magnetic holder which sticks to your desk and magnetises the controls so you always know where they are & makes it easy to press – handy!

The Not So Good

There’s really nothing bad to say about the Century per se – the only thing to consider is if your environment is noisy enough that you want an ultra noise cancelling microphone, you may wish to consider a binaural headset (on both ears) to help you concentrate.

As with any corded headset, with the Sennheiser SC600s you are tethered to your computer via a cable, this can be frustrating when wires lie across your desk and get in the way of papers or drop down and get crushed & tangled under chair wheels.

The Verdict

The Sennheiser SC 630 USB ML is for staff who want the best quality sound on the market for their computer and prefer a corded headset

Other Headsets To Consider Before Buying

If staff sit close together or noise levels are high, Sennheiser may be a better option as it is binaural and helps staff to focus in a busy / noisy environment. There are also padded headbands available in the & . If you don’t need the ultra cancelling microphone or every bell & whistle, the & are both excellent headsets.

Another factor to consider is the extra productivity that can be gained from the freedom to walk away from your desk whilst using your headset. It is worth checking out the which is a great entry level wireless option for only a small amount extra. If you want to stick with Sennheiser then the is their magnificent wireless option, which also has an ultra noise cancelling microphone. If you think 2 ears are better than one, the is your best choice.
