Denon headphones plus random decent quality separate table mic. When looking for headphones, use a heavy bass and high pitch rich dubstep (although i dont like dubstep) in the store to determine good / bad. When searching for mine, I had in the store Denon, Sennheiser, AKG and some other headphone stands. With some MT Eden and other dubstep songs to test, Denon beat every other heaphone by many miles in similar price range (and yes, including Sennheiser). I have had Sennheisers in the past, they were OK but Denon is just better at reproducing all kinds of sounds from speech to classical music. Have had these Denons that cost around 100 eur for 2 years now, one of the best peripherial purchases ive made in my life. |

I had a dual ear headset with attached mic from radioshack that worked great except.
On warm days it was like wearing a set of ear muffs, not something you want to do in a hot climate.
Now I just use a single ear headset with mic attached. It weighs nothing and it doesn't make you sweat and feel like you are wearing a helmet all day. Besides it means you can listen to comms in one ear and something else in the other.
Oh but I have to admit I run comms on a seperate computer then the game. Best use for an old computer.
That way game sounds (yes I know leave it alone) don't overpower what you are trying to listen too.
The whole point of headsets to begin with was to block out external sounds but when it comes to computers they pipe everything over the same channel, makes zero sense and defeats the purpose.
And yes a simple wire cheap headset works just fine. EVERYBODY KNOWS |

now that this topic is around here, i m currently on a phase of leaving all the wires away, so i was wondering, which technology you guys think is best for a set of wireless headphones? bluetooth, RF or IR?
that and wondering if any of you has any set that powers the transmitter via USB and gets the audio from the audio output jack of the sound card.
i was thinking one of these: Sennheiser RS110 or Rocketfish RF-WHP01 or Sony MDRRF925RK

I'm currently using an iMac to play eve and due to recent complaints about the quality of my inbuilt mic I spent a while shopping for a new headset. Then I realised I had a jawbone era lying around. I've hooked that up and can't believe I hadn't thought of it earlier. Great quality, very good noise cancellation, and obviously lighter and more comfortable than a 'normal' headset for voice comms. If you want headphones and mic then go for it, just sayin' a good bluetooth headset can also do the job.
I used Razer Barracuda with my PC(5.1). Loved them till I switched to Mac. I used the built in mic for output and the headphones for input, even in 2.1 they sounded good, but couldn't get the mic to work worth ****. |

Well, I meant LX-3000s but I buy them because they're durable and cheap enough that I can just buy another one if something happens (and some of those expensive headsets are goddamned frail) ~*a-áproud belligerent undesirable*~

I aint no audio buff, I did post here a page back.
Just a guide I follow when buying headphones, avoid anything with a Gaming tag or rating from a gaming magazine/website, they are overpriced and not worth it.
The worse being, already mentioned is the Logitech Barracudas and Razer Caracacegrghefnf whatever the **** they are called. Had both, terrible and waste of money. I have had some Saitek -ú30 headsets as well, which btw were still completely and utterly crap BUT the microphone was miles better than my -ú100 Barracudas and cost 1/4 the price.
Much like mountain biking, avoid things like "Mens windproof, water proof, thermal insulated mountain biking gloves" cost double the price of the ones you get out of outdoor shops.
I beleive my current set is Sennheiser HD 518, not home atm so cant remember. Cost me about -ú70 or so, sturdy as ****, strong cable and good noise cancellation.
