Is Sennheiser PC166 same as PC161 but with extra USB connector?

HI all,

I want to place an order this afternoon for the PC166 pro-gmaing headset. As far as I can see it has std 3.5mm jacks for connection straight into soundcard but also has a USB soundcard connector which I beleive is an add on in case you want to use the USB port.

Does this mean the PC161 and PC166 headsets themselves are identical and that the extra money is for the USB soundcard dongle?

Cheers

Could I use the USB soundcard from a PC130/135 headset on the PC 161 to effectively make it a PC166?
