    New Headset, but which one ? :D


    Hey Guys !!

    i need a new headset soon. My old one just died.

    What can you guys recommend me ?

    My limit is 100$/75eur. I was looking for a 5.1 or 7.1 surround sound one.
    Any ideas ?

    Thanks.

    Honestly, if you're willing to spend just a little more - the Steelseries Siberia V2 with the USB soundcard is your best bet. They run for about $110 USD after shipping 'n all that, but it's an amazing quality headset that's extremely comfortable.

    I have the Plantronics one (second link above). Comfy and solidly built. Good 7.1 performance.

    The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth becomes the greatest enemy of the State.

    My old headset was a http://www.plantronics.com/us/product/gamecom-377 and the micboom was shit and fell apart from under 2 years of normal wear and tear.
    Thanks.

    I was about to go for the Plantronics Gamecom 777, but its sadly not avalible anymore. :/
    So i will go for the 780. Its about 50eur/65$ here and that is pretty much cheap for a 7.1 one.

    Hope the 780 fits well. It looks kinda BIG!!


    Thanks for your time and help guys...
