Thermaltake TT eSports Shock Headset for $20?

1823alex

I'm going to be going black friday shopping and TigerDirect is on my list of stores because they have some really good deals IMO, and was wondering if the TT eSports Shock Headset would be worth it for $20, or should I save up for a G430?

if you're going to save up enough for a g430, I'd recommend against it. I'm not an audio guy but the sound quality of that headset is not great at all. I'm SURE you can get better audio in the $60 price range.

Ok, I'll have to research that a bit more, but what do you think of the Theraltake Headset?

The general consensus is, 'pay for salad and you'll get salad. pay for steaks and you'll get steaks'. You get what you pay for. 

 

There are some 'glitches on the matrix', that cheap unknown brand could have good sounds, or expensive stuffs could have crappy sounds (beats, anyone?)

 

Is it good? Most probably, for a $20 headphone.

Are you hating on salads?  :angry:

Steak-salads.

Are not equivalent to a pound of solid, juicy, perfectly cooked meat.

Aaaaaand now I'm hungry.

Steak, Chicken cordon-bleu, some creme brule, tiramisu cake, oh and a bowl of salad and a diet coke. I'm watching my calories.....

You're watching your calories... pile up.  :D

This reminds me of an interview of Hugh Jackman, on the movie The Wolverine. He went on '5000 calories died'. Basically, everyday he gotta gulp down a minimal of 5000 calories to pump up his body for the movie. Other casts, the women especially, could only watch him eat, while they have to watch their own meals.

I'm sorry I really don't know about audio at all. I only commented because I've had a bad experience with my g430s. good luck though ! :)
