[QUOTE=Rhodry;33584770]So you want your headphones to be made out of steel?[/QUOTE] why the fuck would you take plastic headphones over steel ones anyway, G35s are total shit please leave and never give advice again
[QUOTE=Protocol7;33584772]Any headphone with "gaming" even related to it's marketing or product info is trash and overpriced.[/QUOTE] It's a suggestion. Funny of you to instantly doubt it when you have never used them. [QUOTE=Protocol7;33584772]I have a $20 plastic headphone that doesn't break at all. Plastic can be constructed well and some higher end headphones have metal reinforcements as well.[/QUOTE] The point is moot, 99% of headest/headphones/earphones are made of plastic. I was replying to Dr. Deeps "Not shitty plastic headset thread." - which is a stupid statement seeing as basically all headsets are made by plastic.

I was replying to Dr. Deeps "Not shitty plastic headset thread." - which is a stupid statement seeing as basically all headsets are made by plastic.[/QUOTE] How do you know if I've used them or not? And like I said, plastic can be constructed well. The G35's are not an example of this. There's a little more that goes into build quality of a headphone than "pour plastic into a mold."

Your move.
I have a laptop and I need headphones for it. Literally every headphones I had was broken because of cable. This time I want wireless. The budget is around $100.

[QUOTE=Rhodry;33585061]So all liquid containers are bad if they have a lid on it.[/QUOTE] what's that shit in the sky I think it reads "the joke"
[QUOTE=Rhodry;33585061]So all liquid containers are bad if they have a lid on it.[/QUOTE] What? How is that related.
[QUOTE=Rhodry;33585061]So all liquid containers are bad if they have a lid on it.[/QUOTE] no. headphones revolve around sound quality and comfort. if you get a pair of good headphones and a clip-on mic it will sound infinitely better and be infinitely cheaper than a headset. if you go to head-fi, the premier source of headphone knowledge, they will NEVER recommend a headset. because they suck. not to mention logitech is not an audio company. i only trust my audio equipment with companies that focus on audio equipment.
[QUOTE=Odellus;33585070]what's that shit in the sky I think it reads "the joke"[/QUOTE] So I get shitty smart arse retorts for trying to suggest someone a gaming headset. Awesome.
[QUOTE=Rhodry;33585103]So I am telling someone to waste their money by suggesting a gaming headset. Awesome.[/QUOTE] ftfy
[QUOTE=Rhodry;33585103]So I get shitty smart arse retorts for trying to suggest someone a gaming headset. Awesome.[/QUOTE] I take offense my retorts are quite witty
[QUOTE=Odellus;33584843]why the fuck would you take plastic headphones over steel ones anyway, G35s are total shit please leave and never give advice again[/QUOTE] The almost religious hate of the G35's (previous pair) makes me think I'm heading towards paradise when I get my HD 595's tomorrow :v:
in all seriousness you suggested a solution that was overpriced and has questionable quality compared to headphones in the same price range.
Alright well why dont you guys suggest me a gaming headset at the same price range as the G35s? No cheating, it must have a mic
[QUOTE=Rhodry;33585400]Alright well why dont you guys suggest me a gaming headset at the same price range as the G35s? No cheating, it must have a mic[/QUOTE] the lesson of the last page was that headsets have terrible price:quality but yet you still want a headset

[QUOTE=Rhodry;33585400]Alright well why dont you guys suggest me a gaming headset at the same price range as the G35s? No cheating, it must have a mic[/QUOTE] did you know that you can buy mics separately
[QUOTE=Armotekma;33585425]the lesson of the last page was that headsets have terrible price:quality but yet you still want a headset[/QUOTE] The idea is that I want a microphone connected to my headset for convenience.

I saw the thread pretty much blow up with posts, but never imagined it to be my post that started this discussion :v: I've had my fair share of "gaming"-marketed headsets, and have not been particularly impressed, so I think one of the other options are more likely.
[QUOTE=Odellus;33585462]did you know that you can buy mics separately[/QUOTE] Yes, but why would I do that? The whole point of a headset is that the mic can be positioned right in front of your mouth, removing the need to go out of your way moving/leaning over to a mic without having a giant mic obscuring your view.

Nothing beats Sennheisers.
[QUOTE=Rhodry;33585503]Well then yes, Sennheisers. Nothing beats Sennheisers.[/QUOTE] that depends on your price range, how much bass you prefer, how natural you want things to sound...
Should I pick up SONY MDR-ZX100 for 14.5 USD?
[QUOTE=Protocol7;33585527]that depends on your price range, how much bass you prefer, how natural you want things to sound...[/QUOTE] Price range is not a contributing factor when it comes to Sennheisers, only on very few occasions are Sennheisers beaten in quality to price. Competitors such as Beats by dre and Skullcandys 5 times more costly then Sennheisers are usually the same quality.

So are razer headphones/headsets worth a damn? or is just the brand talking.
