Headphones: HyperX Cloud II vs. Recon3D Omega vs. Ear Force Z300

[Mancolt]

I'm trying to decide on a new set of gaming headphones. Here are the Pros and Cons I've come up with so far. I would appreciate some opinions from those of you that know alot more about this stuff than me.

HyperX Cloud II ($70)
Pros: Great price and still gets very good reviews, Comes w/ airplane adapter for use on a plane
Cons: Wired

Recon3D Omega ($120)
Pros: Great reviews; Very customizable software; Scout Mode
Cons: More expensive than HyperX Cloud II, Relatively short 8hr battery life

Ear Force Z300 ($170)
Pros: Bluetooth, great reviews, very long (15hr) battery life
Cons: Shorter distance than Recon3D, most expensive

The most I've ever spent on the past for any headphones is probably $50, so I have no idea what those higher price points feel/sound like. I figure this time around, I'm not going cheap. I want something good, but I don't want to pay more than I have to (I still appreciate a good value).

You can get better headsets than Hyper X Clouds. Especially for more money. But those ones are not better. Wireless is usually not better.

Tom's recommendations - http/www.tomsguide.com/us/best-gaming-headsets,review-2710.html

They recommend The Corsair H2100 are their choice as best wireless.

I gather you want headSETS. Not just headPHONES.

If you actually want headphones, in that price range, then try Audio Technical M50s - http/www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA18T0NE1231

I apologize, I do want Headsets, not just headphones. I definitely want a microphone with them.

Thanks i7baby. I picked up a pair of Steelseries Siberia Elite Prism in Arctic White for $99.99. Looking forward to using them...should be a very nice change from the uncomfortably hot ones I've used in the past.
