Author Topic: I need a very cheap headset that works well.  (Read 841 times)

Mainly listening to music and games. Are there any good headsets for very cheap? I'd like to buy them from an actual store like Best Buy but I don't know if BB has anything good there.

My range would be around $20-30.



They still sell these very cheap at Ikea

um ok like no just i dont think that would be a viable option

Oh my god, ouch.
Is that an ear-bud headset?

I swear, they make those things for people with gorilla ears.
I feel violated if I wear them for more than 20 minutes.

If my ear cbrown town was 3 sizes bigger maybe.
Im not into ear cbrown town stretching. I don't know bout you, but I'm not.
Give me some comfy padded headphones any day.

turtlebeach x12 is 40-45$ and is well worth it and it has lasted me forever.

I highly recommend this one, although the price shown here on Amazon is ten or fifteen Dollars higher than I saw at Target or wherever I got mine. They got nice max speaker volume, good audio quality, and the microphone seems to be pretty good too. I've never heard anybody complain about difficulty hearing me in games or voice chat. I'm also able to wear them for several hours at a time and my ears never ache.

I've had two or three of them, and each lasts about a year and a half or two years before I start experiencing crackling problems with one speaker or the other, and none of them have broken physically from wear and tear or dropping, so they got good longevity and decent toughness, although they probably aren't very durable at all to getting stepped or sat on.

Oh, and it uses a uses two 3.5 mm plugs for the mic jack and a headphone jack, not a U.S.B. plug. Just felt like I should point that out since I don't think it says so on the Amazon page.

I bet if you turned the volume up real loud with them, it would be literal ear rape.


I highly recommend this one
I would too. They work, it's not uber high sound quality or anything, but they do the job for a decent price.



No.
Bullstuff. You get what you pay for, so obviously it's not going to be ridiculously high sound quality for $25, but considering the price it can be a good deal.
