Author Topic: Need headset ideas  (Read 1305 times)

My last headset broke after only 6 months of semi-intense use (audio problems) and now I need a new one, but I need help finding one. I need a headset that is:
  • durable
  • has a good microphone
  • mute control
  • Good price
  • (optional) black and red colours
The last one I owned was an Ozone Attack headset. I would get another one, but the fact that it didn't last long has put me off the idea. The wires became exposed rather quickly too. Although, it was a good headset

Xtrust have good sound quality and microphones, just dont have a big head or it will break in two.

Whatever you do, don't get Beats.


I had that headset too, wires broke within 2 months.

I splashed out and got the Corsair Vengance 1500

oh man that looks nice. If there is one with red instead of blue i will surely get it, but it looks great


You should give us a price range. Cheap for Bill Gates is not the same as cheap for me, if you know what I mean.

Anyways, check out the Corsair Vengeance series. Both the 1500 and the 2000 seem to be good headsets. Then you of course have Sennheiser with stuff like their 3X0-series (320,340,350 and 360). A little bit more pricy, but the sound quality is top notch. I've also heard people say good things about the Siberia V2 or some of the TurtleBeach's (then again, a lot of audiophiles have said a lot of negative things about the last two)

Siberia V2

i use this almost all the time, they're the most comfortable thing ever

the only thing though is that the bass is slightly boosted, and if you're a mac user, there's no way to change that

I dunno, I'd only really like to spend about £40-50 as I don't really need a #1 top-tech HD surround sound with cup holder.
I have this headset, and I like it.

I'd prefer to use a UK store

This thing looks expensive, but looks amazing and probably is.
No way, too pricey

You won't get anywhere close to top-tech HD surround sound for that price. But a Siberia V2 is within your budget, read some reviews for it:  (can very often be found for around £50, it goes on sale quite often. But £60 is probably still a good buy)

Sennheiser 320: (70% off :O)

These Plantronics also get very good reviews, and they have 7.1 surround sound. £40, after a 50% discount!

The sennheiser 320 looks really good. green is my favourite colour, too. So this works for both X360 and PC? Cause I needed a new 360 headset...
