Headset just broke, looking for recommendations!

[laddiemawery]

Well my SteelSeries Siberia V2's just broke on me. The right speaker wont work anymore. I've had that headset for about three years I think, and I loved it. I used them for everything, playing games or just listening to videos/music at home.

I'm open to any recommendations. I would like to stay around $150 if possible. I may be willing to spend more if the headset will last or the quality is that much better than other options.

For me (And maybe you) I always use audio technica: http/www.audio-technica.com/cgi-bin/product_search/headphones/headphones_cat.pl?select_multiple_3=Gaming%20Headsets but those are just the gaming ones which i haven't actually used so i cant personaly vouch for them but thats only if you want the in built mic with it. they have others like the ATH M50s which are great all round

I've tried my cousins pair of A40's and wasn't really a fan. The sound wasn't bad, it just wasn't comfortable to me.

Thanks for the link Felix, but those are above the budget that I wanted to keep in. I'd be ok spending that much if I knew the quality was there, but without it I cant justify it.

could always just buy siberia v2 again then haha

I thought about doing that but I figured there would be better options out by now.

The sennheiser g4me zero is on sale for 180 on amazon for an all in one. otherwise you could go with a pair of sennheiser hd518 and a samson meteor mic or modmic for about 130 total.

If you want the best bang for you buck I recommend making your own custom headset by buying a high end set of cans and putting this on it: http/www.modmic.com/collections/frontpage/products/modmic-4-0

Some headphones I recommend:
Audio Technica ATH-M40X
Sennheiser HD 280 Pro
Sony MDR7506

Hope this helped and good luck!
