Getting new Headset; which one?

Half Live · Jun 23, 2010

I use a Sennheiser HD280 Pro cans and a zalman clip on mic. Best combo EVER.

Here is the mic http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_s...mic&x=0&y=0&sprefix=zalman+clip&tag=tec06d-20

And here is the headphones http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000065BPB/?tag=tec06d-20

For all you guys saying avoid gaming headsets, I can honestly tell you that I have not found even a single negative review about Roccat Kaves, and I for one, as an owner of a pair, definitely understand why.
Of course many/most "gaming" headsets are gimmicks, but the Kaves are an investment that I definitely celebrate making.

(nobody that has tried my pair, both at home and at LAN parties has ever been unimpressed with them either)

Wow... if that isn't a hype-fest, I don't know what is! LOL

Thanks for all the replies guys, I've made up my mind and am mostly likely going to get the Roccat Kaves. I would get the Sennheiser PC350/60 since they look mad, but they're just way too expensive for the extent to which I use headphones (not enough to warrant spending over $200). :toast:

DUDE WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT.

DAMNIT. A guy had a PC350 for sale for $50 shipped. It's already gone, though.
