Gaming Headset Suggestions

[xPoisonYT]

So I am looking to buy a gaming headset, my budget is $70 USD. I have looked at some reviews but I can't find a actual good gaming headset that is not flimsy. I was thinking of the Steelseries 5Hv3, but reviews said it was flimsy. So the headset I need is a headset with good audio, and a decent microphone. Suggestions?

(I have looked at the Razer Krakens, I am on the fence about them)

SteelSeries Siberia V2

I picked one up off Ebay for $35 a great value and the best Headset I have owned under $100.

Well built, made to cup over your ears instead of on them. With the Suspension design they are hardly noticeable after hours of use and if you happen to have Glasses they wont pinch your ears. The Sound is great, good overall dynamic range and has a built in retractable mic unlike most Headsets with a annoying boom mic.

How does the base sound on them?

Maybe the reviews will help.

From my testing of both Sets, which I've tried every set in the $100 and less category.

Siberia V2
Price = $35 to $70
Comfort= Excellent
Build Quality= Excellent
Overall Sound= Great... Bass is good sound doesn't distort easily at any level and the overall balance between Bass,Mid and High are great. Everything sounds equally as good without any software adjusting.
Mic Quality= Good
Includes Inline Mic on/off and Volume Control
Includes Retractable Mic

Razor Kraken Pro
Price = $55 to $90
Comfort= Excellent
Build Quality= Excellent
Overall Sound= Great...Bass can be overwhelming and distorts at high volume levels, Mids can be lacking and the Sound gets muddy with certain types of Music. Not a issue with a Equalizer where you can tailor in the sound.
Mic Quality= Okay
Does not Include Inline Mic on/off and Volume Control
Includes Retractable Mic

So if you want Big Boomy Bass pick the Kraken, If you want a overall great sound with a Inline Mic On/Off and Volume control pick the Siberia. Both are great options.

Thanks, I think I will go for the SIberia V2,
