Gaming PC headset help!

[Zecric]

Hello guys. I need some help here. I'm intending to get a new headphone cause my old one was rather crappy and it broke within a month. Could anyone recommend a good and durable headset? Also I'm not sure if getting a headset with Dolby 5.1 is worth it. So please help! I asked around in my country and some people said get the turtle beach z6a or razer blackshark or Logitech the G930 if I'm not wrong. My budget is like 100-150 and I need a mic as well. Or should I get a headset and mic separately?

I've been loving my Logitech G430. I would totally recommend them. I would probably go for the Corsair Vengeance 1500 if I were you.

Headphones and a mic is usually the best way to go, when you consider audio quality. What country are you in?

I would rather get kicked in the dick than wear another turtle beach headphone.   FUCK turtle beach..... sadly I might have to eat my words because it looks like TB is going to be the first company with the new dts headphoneX

 

secondly the RzAr blacksharks overblown bass is worthy of this MILITARY grade MILITARY unboxing of a MILITARY headset....... MILITARY.

Those Pioneers are supposedly absolutely amazing for the price, if you can find these, I'd get these.

I'm from Singapore. Because right now I read so many reviews of headphones and I honestly don't know which way to go.

@Lauen so it's better to be getting a separate mic and earphone? Like the ones you posted?

@Aphexx which headphones do you use? The blackshark too?

no. that rAzR is pretty silly product and a silly overly blown bass sound signature. I like the color blue but its not like I go and crank the blue coloring on all my monitors so I can get more blue all the time. 

 

my new years resolution has been to not buy anymore headphones..... we'll see how long that lasts. but my headphones are ath m50 dt770 athws55 vmoda crossfade ath ad700 monoprice 8323 and a corsair vengeance 2000.

How long will those V2k's last you this time?

oh its busted and held together with duct tape for now but after going through 5 of these things... Care, I do not. 

 

this piece of shit does sound decent though. I'd love to tear it to pieces on a sound level but.... its not that bad very dt770'ish

Most headphones are better than all gaming headsets, only exception being the Sennheiser PC360 and 363D, they're both pretty much a Sennheiser HD558 with a mic on the side and not as good build quality. If you can find those I linked for a good price or can get them shipped to you, get them.
