Which headset to get?

[xRAGExSounDxRIOTX]

I want to have a headset that's good for music, communication for around 150 USD

 

I'm thinking:

Razer Kraken 7.1

Asus Orion Pro

 

 

What would you recommend?

that one

ATH-M50s are generally considered the best at that price. Get a ZM-MIC1 or ModMic along with it if you require one.

Neither of those will be good for music.

Dedicated headphone, dedicated mic.

Get a ad700x + mod mic or snowflake.

"Separate Headphone + Mic" master race beaming in.

 

 

For ~$100 headphones you'd probably be told to check out the Audiotechnica ATH-AD700 or V-MODA Crossfade LP. For microphones, you can get a cheapo Zalman clip-on, a AntLion ModMic with the ATH-AD700, or a V-MODA BoomPro with the Crossfade LP.

Master race huh? I kind of like that tittle

[t0wer]

you're better off with headphones and a mic over just about any headset.

ad700 and HD558's are my typical recommendation.

 

throw on a modmic or zalman clip on and you'll be good to go.
