Want a new Headset :)

[MadManMarsBar]

Hey everyone 

 

So as the title says i want a new headset , it basically needs to do everything , will be use for talking to people during games , listening to music and games etc

so needs a good mic and some really good audio , the Thermaltake headset i have now has been amazing (especially for £35) but it is haing some issues lately

 

money isnt really an issue , i just need some ides to get me going as to where i should look , i have no idea when iot comes to audio

 

thanks in advance guys

I don't know how much my opinion holds.  I'm not an audiophile or anything, but I've always had great luck with Turtle Beach.  I'd recommend them for a gaming headset.

For listening to music and such, can't give much advice there.

I picked up a Turtle Beach Stealth 450 over Christmas. Probably one of the best headsets I've used. Blows my old Logitech G930 out of the water in sound quality.

No do not even touch turtle shit

 

If you want budget then HyperX clouds, if you wanna step up your game then headphones + stand alone mic, but we kinda need a budget or else I can recommend 1k headphones and 1k microphones

open or closed? Also a stand alone mic can be mod mic or v-moda boompro

Open leaks sound, but gives you a bigger soundstage, which means that it is less in the middle of your head. Closed will block sound and have a smaller soundstage.

I can recommend the K550, they have a elevated bass and treble with a big soundstage for closed headphones, the DT770 is also a good option, they don't have as big bass boost
