New Headset/headphones needed

Well since my Creative Fatality (signed by teh pro Fatality himself [sarcasm]) died (finally; hated them a little less than BF4 creators) im in a need of some well low-medium budget headset or headphones. Would gladly thank people to not make "headset vs headphones" battle here. Second would like mostly Europeans for help due to prices here are a "little" higher than in NA (North America and not "not available").

Budget is ~50 euro (66$) which can be upped about 10-15 euro.

 

For those who think "In gods name why you bought Creative Fatality?" i will answer - because there were on 60% discount and needed headset ASAP back then...

I'm basing this only on $$$ and comfort,

 

tte sports shock headset, Koss SB40

 

but that's the ones I've had experience with, not much but that helps all under 50

Check out the build: Used to be Obot, now Lilith

If you just want something for talking and basic stuff then get the Microsoft lifechat headset. it is cheap and comfortable. I have wingnut ears and can wear that headset for hours with no issues.

@ShearMe will recommend some pioneer headphones that are even getting good writeups on headfi.

I don't really know exactly where you at in Europe, but if you can stretch your budget to about 70 euro's, you can get the Pioneer SE-A1000 from amazon.de.

I've also heard good things about the Phillips Uptown and the Creative Aurvana Live, which are both in your budget (if you up it by 10) when I look at the dutch prices.

The Pioneer SE-A1000 are a hundred bucks on Amazon.co.uk, probably more IF you can find them on the mainland.

Audiotechnica's ATH-T400 is usually at a good price on Thomann
