Author Topic: I want a gaming headset. How's this one?  (Read 3265 times)

But you're blocking your ears off while using an outside source, it makes no sense.  You get no benefit from the better quality of the speakers when you're just covering them up with your headphones. 

I don't think you've ever set it up like this. It works out really good. It works out way better than having everything straight through my headset. I don't want the music or video I'm listening to be the same volume as the voice.

On top of this my headphones aren't designed to listen to music, they're made for voice. My speakers still sound better than my headset. I have a real setup with a subwoofer and all of that.

It gives out much better sound than the headphones. My headphones don't cancel out all noise or anything, I can still hear everything pretty well. The mic also doesn't pick up anything outside of my voice unless it's really loud.

i have turtlebeaches x11 with dss, and boy does it loving beat every other headset i ever had. also it's indestructible
got em for $30 too, off woot.com

I have Turtlebeach x11's with DSS too and use them for both my xbox and computer. They are great.

Well maybe in your situation but I have a noise-cancelling 7.1 surround headset and the noise cancelling works really really good so I wouldn't be able to hear anything played from the speakers, haha.

Get it,

Well stuff. I ordered it. Having money will be the end of me.

I went ahead and ordered an ASUS zonar dgx soundcard too. Don't wanna tie up my POD.
