Hi,
I was wondering if anyone could help me, i'm looking for a good headset mainly for gaming.
I have the X-Fi xtreme sound card.
Which headset would you recommend?
At the moment i'm looking at these 2 :
1.CLICK

2. CLICK

Any help would be greatly appreciated :)
Thanks
 
Get the Sennheiser PC150, a lot better than Medusa 5.1s on the X-fi. The virtual surround is a lot better than what the Medusa tries to do. They sound a lot better than my old medusas. Highly recommended. :)

EDIT: You could go for the PC160 if your budget allows.
 
Thanks for the replies :)
Which headset would give me a better sense of direction? (eg where people are coming from in games)
If the 160's are worth it, i would spend the extra money :p
 
Had the 150's for a couple of years, sound went i left ear after about a year and the right after about 18 months only use them for the mic now but good headset, only downside is that they hurt your ears after and hour or so due to them pressing on your ears all the time. Just bought Sennheiser HD555's and love them. Heard abit about the Medusa's but would get the 150's out of those 2 just because i've had them before.
 
personally i'd either go with the sennheiser pc160's or i'm currently using the steelsound 5h along side my xf-i fatal1ty and i have to say the sound is incredible, i actually nearly wet myself when wearing these and playing fear :(
 
Lol sounds fun :p
Thank you for all of the replies, I'm gonna look up a few more 5.1 headsets and then decide whether to go for the 150's, 160's or 5.1's.
:)

EDIT: The Steelsound 5H do look tempting but a little vague on the description, gonna do a search on these headphones :D

Hi,
I got the Sennheiser PC160's this morning. The sound is fantastic for both music and games, they are also very comfortable :)
Thanks
