Creative Sound Blaster Evo

[-iSynthesis]

Im needing a new Headset, max. Price of about 130€. I stumbled across the Creative Sound Blaster Evo, dont know the difference between the evo, the evo zx or the evo zxr. Can anyone explain the difference?

When it comes to headsets I'd always recommend going with headphones and a separate microphone.

The Evo is a wired version, the Zx is a wireless bluetooth version, while the ZxR is the wireless version with active noise cancelling.

Any reccomendations?

Buy a $90 headphone like the Shure SRH-440 and a $40 microphone like a Blue Snowball. Look around for what you like.

In Germany, the headphones, shure SRH-440 125€ & the snowball 70€, sadly beyond my budget

Look around at the offerings from sennheiser, beyerdynamic, AKG, etc. for a microphone just go with a Snowball from Blue microphones, find one for as little as possible, then go to the audiophiles in the forum with your budget (I'd recommend having a solid $150 budget, which you basically have.)

All of the headphone brands I mentioned above are great, I love my HD 595's from sennheiser, although these will be out of your price range unless your willing to go on eBay. Each has their own quality to them though, so I'd recommend going to audio section of the forums, as I haven't tried all of them and so don't know what each brand offers.

How much are sennheiser PC 350/360's where you are? They're the only headphones that have come close the the quality of separate headphones.

What about the shure srh-240?

Sorry, I meant headset, the pc 360's Are a headset, if you can't afford a separate solution, those would be just fine. I'm just sure about those myself, I'd recommend the audio section, there are some great guys there who've helped me out plenty of times.

Blue Snowflake + Beyerdynamic DTX910?

 

There's plenty of good headphones which are on Thomann, including that SRH240 you mentioned above. Open headphones are generally better for positional accuracy in games, but if you prefer isolation that's fine too.

I have tried the Evo's last year and they where good, the mic ok but nothing great but was good for general gaming and did try out on my Mobile phone, the call was clear.  But before you go spend lot of money on a headset try to find them in a store or a friend to see if you like them.

 

The Evo's are not heavy but it can be uncomfortable over time till you get used to them.

 

Creative made my faverite headset of all time the HS-600 about 10 year ago.

Pretty much this. The PC360s are the only headset worth buying and otherwise you want to get a separate headphones and mic solution.

Thanks for everyones help, got myself some Teufel Aureol Massive&a Blue Snowball, they`re awesome

Nice! Also, a friend of mine had the ZXR's, the right cup snapped within three weeks, they were not very solidly built, massively overpriced too.
