new Headset

Post by Raksha »

Long time not seen huh,

I just broke my second headset by steping over the cable.
The quality of the mic wasn't even too good though.

Now my question:

Can anyone tell me a good and "cheap" wireless headset?
Don't want to break it again by stepping over cables...

If you listen to music on PC get a non-gaming headset + a speedlink clip on mic.

Budget?

Btw, learn to route your cables... :D

It's really cheap and actually not that bad! It is pretty okay.

Looks like its pretty small. I doubt that it is comfortable.
Any experience with it?

It's not small. You can change the height to make it fit to any head. No I never tested it.

Maybe expensive, but really comfortable

Turtle Beach headset! You have some for 50€

Mine is the EarForce Foxtrot ( MW3 Edition ) And it`s a really nice gaming headset!

If your looking for something wireless i would go in with a medium price range of aroun 40€+ if you want something good.

Die liegen dann halt auf. Hatte auch schon so ein Headset. Geht wunderbar. :-)

Kannst es doch ausprobieren? Wenn es Dir nicht zusagt, einfach innerhalb von 2 Wochen zurückschicken. Bei Amazon zahlst Du weder für den Hin- noch für den Rückversand extra.

@Vash: Ich denke, das werde ich auf jeden Fall tun.

@Penguin: Well pretty hard to tell. What I want is good quality. So i say: As much as needed and as less as possible. I actually don't want to spend up to 100€ for a headset...

You mean build quality or sound quality?

What will be the main use of the headset?

Gaming/ Voice chat/ Music?

Gaming and Teamspeak / Skype. But rather TS/Skype than gaming.

Quality: I don't wan't to touch it and it breaks. I want to have a clear sound especially when I am in TS and a good microphone quality.

Cheap option (Really good for this price): http://www.amazon.de/Plantronics-Gameco ... 09&sr=8-16

More expensive option: http://www.amazon.de/SteelSeries-Siberi ... 294&sr=8-1

Reasonable option (More TS orientated): http://www.amazon.de/Creative-HS-950-US ... 09&sr=8-11

Reasonable option (Gaming orientated): http://www.amazon.de/Creative-FATAL1TY- ... 623&sr=8-1

Nice discounted option (Gaming orientated): http://www.amazon.de/Creative-Blaster-T ... 209&sr=8-7


I know you said wireless but... I just don't find them reliable. My suggestion to help with your wire problem would be some cable tie straps and an extension for the plug (USB/3.5 depending on which headset you'd get. With the longer wire you can get it further out of your way.
