Both Steelseries Siberia v2 and Razer Kraken pro are very good headsets as far as I know and are pretty much for the same price.

 

I also wanna know is 50mm driver in siberia v2 is better than kraken pro? does it make any difference?

 

So what do you guys prefer siberia v2 or kraken pro?

I suggest you avoid headsets completely and grab a proper set of headphones with a standalone/clip on microphone.

They have terrible sound quality as much as i can recommend. The Kraken Pros for example have bass so obtrusively strong that it lacks in everything else, both mids and highs, while it's bass is so overpowering your gunshots/car engine take up 80% of the sound in the game.

If you're on a budget the ATH-m50 is a great choice.

Yeah though I advise getting a more high end headset with an additional mic, out of those two I would recommend the Siberia V2. If you can get them cheap, they are alright. Mic quality is pretty decent and a major point is that they are EXTREMELEY comfortable. In terms of sound quality you can get better but for some reason with sorrounding sounds they are really good.

Is this the real life? Or is this just fantasy?

I had them both and I personally like the Siberia v2 better than the Razer.

driver size doesn't mean a whole lot.

 

and as others are saying, go dedicated headphone and mic.

 

m50 and ad700 are both hard to beat for their price.

Will work for electronic components and parts

Siberia V2; it's extremely comfortable, and the audio quality is good enough for me. The mic is decent too, but I replaced it with a Blue snowball iCE, and the difference is amazing. Don't need as fancy a mic though.
