Or the RAZER Kraken USB

Any of those are fine

No.

Newest Krakens with its mediocre Build quality and tinny sound, crappy ear shape, Cannot recommend it.

G430 and stingers still sound like horrid but its withstand able for $50.

To be honest, I know nothing about the Kraken, I just looked at a list of the best headsets and it seemed to par with the others. I am new to the gaming community, so if this is something I should know don't hate plz.
