grumpy people are best people.

that being said I really like my razer carcharias a lot. But I heard if you have big ears they hurt after a few hours, idk though mine are tiny.

 

i have the carcherias....

the only way you can hear the mic is if you turn boost all the way up and scream at the top of your lungs and you still can barely hear it....

 

 

 

my suggestion... the astro a 40s amazing quality and removable mic.

Are those headphones for the Xbox 360 only, Richie?

 

They are one of those hybrid Xbox 360/PC headsets since it uses 3.5mm jacks and a USB port for power. I actually have the X12's. They're... okay. The super long cable, 12 feet I think, tangles and coils easily (at least for me.) The mic is very sensitive, but clear when you take down the mic settings (my microphone is @ 18% volume). It's light and comfy, but takes a little time to break 'em in since it uses a somewhat firm foam on the earcups. Sound quality is good, but I'm no audiophile or anything.

 

Corsair's Vengeance series seems good. I tried the 1300's (which I recommended to a friend and he likes them) which I used for a short amount of time. I personally like more "open" headsets, so I didn't like 'em. They were comfortable though.

Well if you're computer has Bluetooth and a Digital Audio Output, then i have the right headphones for you!

These are the Turtle Beach PX5, they were designed for PS3 and Xbox360, but may also work for PC, they have Dobly 7.1 sorround system, they're just awesome

I was always skeptical of the Turtle Beaches because I didn't want to get lumped in with the Xbox 360 kids. One day about two months ago, my g35's snapped on me. It was just a freak thing where the right ear just kinda, came off...

 

Anyways, I have not been let down by these headphones. Like Laz said, they do take a little while to get them broken in, they are pretty firm at first. I haven't had to adjust settings all that much but a lot of the Turtle Beaches will work for Xbox and PC.

 

Mine were $60 and probably the greatest $60 of Clark's money I spent.

Fixed. You saw K-pop in the avatar and assumed Lazarus. :D

 

I like them as well.
