The combination of light weight and rigidity make for a compelling argument. Paper speakers are still very common even in high end headphones. High end audio will often use composite or metal cones (New England Audio Research had some fantastic aluminum alloy units that were extremely pricey, but worth it), but when we look at applications which will be sold for less than $100 those exotic materials are just too expensive. Much has been done over the years to improve durability of paper cones so that they continue to stay very rigid after many years of use.
Paper is still used in a wide variety of audio applications due to its light weight and natural rigidity. Some people might recoil from the thought of paper cones, but it is nothing to be afraid of. There is supposedly 35 ohms of resistance with these headsets, so a better than average audio setup that could include amplified output might be key for good performance with this particular headset. We all know that the larger the diameter, the lower the resistance, so it is a little concerning to me that the cable is as slight as it is. The woven cable that connects the headset to the computer is a very small diameter unit which handles left, right, and microphone wires.
These are about average size for this particular market, but we see some competing brands utilize 50 mm speakers in a variety of materials that may or may not provide better sound. The headset utilizes 40 mm paper speakers to provide sound.
