Another great option for headsets in this price range are the refurbished Razer Blacksharks.

Do not buy them for the original price! But they are ok for 60$ and way better sounding than the Krakens (tried both).

(You are still better off getting used Sennheiser HD 518 plus a mic or something similar tough.)

Nice review

Surely you jest. <_<  The Black Shark is only for bassheads, I'd gotten one after reading a review here about how good it is. Yes, it looks great, but the sound.....OMG the sound! :o  I could hear very recessed mids and highs, bass trumps both......by a wide margin. Terrible, terrible pair of headset! :angry:  Fortunately for me, I'd gotten it quite cheap, bundled it with a Logitech Z623 and sold it off.

If you use it with Razer´s Surround Software it´s actually somewhat decent - I prefer it over the Krakens.

 

But to be fair, I usually play with my Sennheiser HD 598 and only use the Blackshark when it´s impossible to use an open headphone.
