Hi everyone,

 

I'm looking for a new Headset. The thing I'm rocking now is pretty... uhhmmm go and see the picture.... It's all kept together with some duct tape. The headband is some piece of dampening foam taped to it...

The thing is I'm looking at headsets and think, hmmm this one is nice, but that one also. But i don't know anything about quality etc.... I'm looking for a headset with surround sound and a mic. I also like to listen music with it, not all gaming oriented.

 

Greetings!

Does it need a mic or can you "mod" one on again?

btw, headphones, while they technically are periphrials, should rather go in the adudio subforum ;)

Rather have one already attached onto it.

Next time i have a Audio question I'll post it over there ;)

 

Also I was looking at the Corsair Vengeance 2100, Suggestions?

Steelseries Siberia v2, Logitech G35 if you can get it cheap, otherwise G230 or G430. Siberia Elite is good, the mix issue will be fixed with a firmware update this week. 

 

Keep in mind, these are all "gaming headsets", if that's what you want.

if you arent planning on getting proper headphones just get whatever looks prettiest to you. mind you, since you are looking for a plastic toy.
