BetaZerker Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 My current ones broke, and I'm looking for something with decent sound quality and build quality (they should last at least a couple years) and I'm on a budget of about £60. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Letter13 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Headphones or headset? If it's headphones for like, an MP3 player and stuff, I highly suggest the Koss and Sennheiser brands. If it's a headset (with a mic) that you want... meh just buy a cheapo logitech one and save your money for a nice dinner or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarGrylls Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Hmmm idk in £ my headset cost, but I'd vouch for some Turtle Beach X12s. seen some $80new and $40 pre-owned if talking frugal. They been kind to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KijaJouteh Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Steelseries siberia Has a microphone, and the best sound quality I have ever gotten out of any headset. Even if you just want headphones, you can scream at your teammates AND jam out to music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tulzscha Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Headsets in general will be inferior to headphones with regards to sound and music quality, with the exception of some models from Sennheiser and Beyerdynamic (which already have an established reputation for audiophiles). You can look into the PC 360, PC 363D or MMX 300 but all of those are US $150 or more, the Beyer MMX in particular going for $300+ For a $100 budget I'd suggest going for a headphone + clip-on mic solution instead to get the most bang for your buck. I would recommend the following: Creative Aurvana Live! - $60-100 on Amazon, warm and spacious sound, great positional cues, however bass can be a bit loose Audio-Technica ATH AD-700 - $100ish on Amazon, ultra comfy, wider than wide soundstage, but may be too bass-deficient for some Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
