I have already made a post about this but got no help, so i am posting again


I am planning on getting a wireless headset. I would prefer to pay around £100, however i could stretch to £200 if it's amazing 


Are there any good wireless headsets for that price, Remember to factor in the cost of a mic (Preferably blue snowball)


If there are no good wireless headphones are there any better wireless headsets than the corsair 2100 for the price


Thanks

If you must get wireless, get Sennheiser RS series like this one.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sennheiser-Digital-Wireless-Over-Ear-Headphone/dp/B002TLT10S/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1402766398&sr=8-1&keywords=sennheiser+rs

 

Remember that wireless is like 3x more expensive over wired. It's really not that great compared to wired and you're shelling out a ton of money for it. 

My personal rig - 4790k 4.8Ghz, Asus Z97 Pro (wi-fi ac), Corsair Dominator Plat 4x8GB, SLI GTX 1080 TI FE, Samsung 850 Evo 1TB, Crucial MX100 512GB, EVGA G3 1000W, and cooled by a hardline liquid cooling loop.

Most people don't need a yeti. What are you using it for? If it's just VoIP then a snowball is already overkill.

Stick with the Snowball or get a Samson Meteor. I can't find anything cheaper and those are both quality mics.
