Possible New Headset

[TIGR]

So i bought the plantronics 777. I like them, but there is a lot of pressure on my ears and im not sure how I like that. Im sure most of them are going to be like this, compared to what I had, its 100% better. But im seriously considering trying a different set. I would like to find them in a store so i can buy them and try them out.

So

Plantronics Gamecon 777 - good


edit:

the headset buddy adaptor works wonderfully

Not that the 777s do much to isolate you from external noise, but the pressure helps a bit with keeping distracting noise out and you do get used to it over time. Personally I have come to like headsets/headphones that put considerable pressure on you as in my experience, the audio quality (especially bass) and noise isolation just tends to be better with those. But if you can try something else from a store where you can return it, go for it because everyone's taste is different.

thinking about trying them. Frys isn't far form my job, i may drive over there to pick them up on my lunch break.

That sounds good—would you post your impressions of them vs the 777s? I haven't tried the Creative headset. I do have a Tritton AX-51 Pro on the way that I am eager to try out. Will let you know how I think it compares as well if you like.

I never really heard anything good about Creatives fatality series products. I had the fatality 1010 mouse which had several design flaws in product materials alone. They might be good for the price though.
