HALP: Headset

[external]

best headphones for fps: http://www.amazon.com/AKG-K-701-Headpho ... words=k701

cheaper alternative: ATH-AD700s if you can find them. apparently theres new model AD700X but idk if its any better or same

then buy a zalman mic for like 10 bucks

Can you give a rough budget?

hmmm. I didn't put too much thought into it, but I was hoping somewhere in/around the area of 100. Being a college student and having to pay my own way, I was hoping to not spend $300 (though those headsets do like kinda nice lol)

For your money.

My sage rock solid advice is do not buy a **** gaming headset mic/headphone combo from some **** gaming peripheral company.

Buy a real pair of headphones from a real **** audio gear lab/company.
Pay attention to the frequency response specs (wider is better)

Hear dog whistles like a **** boss.

four examples in your price range.

Yeah ive heard that buying a good pair of headphones and buying a mic separate is the way to go. I bought this headset over a year ago and not to happy with em so stay away from this head set. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6826816027

Ive always heard that the audio technica ad700 headphones are great. Wish I would have spent the extra 20 or 30 for em instead of getting a full headset which I'm now having problems with my mic on my corsair's. Mic's are usually the first thing to go on a headset that's why just buying headphones and a mic separately is the way to go. Hope this helps Dicholson!

Like external said about the K-701 is true. I loaned a pair from my friend to play with under a few days when he was on vacation. Enjoyed every minute of playing MW3 and BF3. Will probably buy a pair of these or the Audio Technica AD700x when my g930 stops working(again)
