Hey Linus Tech Tips,

 

Right now I'm looking at gaming headsets and I'm deciding between these three headsets which have received praise by Linus himself from what I understand. I'm wondering which one you guys think I should pick.

I'm willing to drop a good sum of money if I need to but I wouldn't want the price to go over $500.

As long as you know you'll be fine with the headband design of the Audio-Technicas, I would hands down go for those. The mic on it is by far the best mic I've heard on a headset (Linus reviewed this very headset). One thing though: I would consider the ADG1 instead of the AG1. The ADG1 has an open back design, and it also has a cloth like material on the ear cups. Helps keep the ears not absurdly warm. :)
