Today, I broke down and purchased the Razer Kraken Pro headset. Coming in under the original price of $80 at $75, with one day shipping, I decided to finally order it. The headset itself is actually on sale for $54.99 on amazon.

Nah, it's ok to know the truth. I wish somebody told me that at the 1st (and last)time i bought a gaming headset. At least now i know how bad the gaming headsets are, comparing to some other real headphones.

I didn't think it was rude.  It just seemed like the phrasing of @LeKnightHawk meant that he dedicated a lot of thought into his purchase.    I'd have felt a bit deflated and worried that my new purchase might suck. 

 

Maybe I was being overly sensitive.    haha

After dealing with the headset for a day, I am not sure why people are bashing on it. Yes, the mic isn't the best, but I use a AT2020. The sound quality? It sounds like a pair of ATH-M50's my buddy @RevoltTrain has..

 

EDIT: I didn't really specify on how they sounded... 

 

It sounded like the heavenly gates opened up to me while I was having an eargasm and my life became complete.
