That's way over $350, I would say Fidelio X2's with a modmic.

The Fidelio X2 is what I recommend, also the HE-400i if it gets as low as $350.

If you go for the Fidelio X2 route, you still have some room in your budget to add in the Antlion Modmic.

Basically its: An idiot that tries VS a jerk that ruins every after-party. Pick your poison.

If the HE-400i went to $350 I would buy so many..... the price of the HE-400i is $480 on Amazon right now

It's been 300 on Amazon since black friday and again a day ago...

 

Edit: Was on sale 8 hours ago:

Sold out now, but just keep an eye out. I see it drops to $300 quite often.

7.1 doesn't equal comfort.

Most headphones are actually much larger and higher quality then gaming headsets actually because they don't have to compromise on quality/size to accommodate for the built in crap microphone.

7.1 isn't very good stereo is much much better especially for gaming 7.1 is a gimmic. 7.1 is good if you actually have a physical 7.1 setup in your living room.

If you can drop the 7.1 surround sound i would say the bose 25 it's so comfy on the head and are amazing at sound damping and audio is amazing but the bad things is it uses aaa batteris so fast.

Have you ever compared a 7.1 headset to a pair of good stereo headphones?

 

You might think that 7.1 is better for games but it really isnt helpful it just makes it sound artificial so that you dont naturally feel where the sound is coming from but where it wants you to hear it from and it dulls down the direction I reccomend a good stereo headset over 7.1
