I've had a set of Sennheiser PC 350's for about 6 years now, and they have been great in terms of comfort and sound quality. Microphone was good while it worked, but it stopped working about 2 years ago (not really sure why, cable had been pulled on a little hard a few times so that could be the reason). The pads have been flaking pretty bad for a while now, but as I understand it that's just something that happens eventually.
But between the pads and the microphone and actually having money now it's time to replace them (I know I can replace the pads but I would like working mic so I don't have to use a cheap webcam one). Here's the thing, I have a giant head. Like, it's unnaturally large. I also have very large ears (a child in Korea was trying to describe me once in is limited English, so he decided to go with "donkey" ). The PC 350 has been amazing. It fits on my head with no issue and it fits all the way around my ears as well (not all around the ear headphones do that for me).
So in getting a replacement, I am trying to find one that will keep the same qualities of the PC 350, specifically the size. If the 350 was still for sale I might just get a new one, but I'm not finding it anywhere I'm willing to buy from. I found the PC 350 SE on amazon for $189, so that is one option. Does anyone have any other suggestions? Specifically if you have used the 350 and have tried something newer that fits the same profile that would be great, thanks!
Oh, and I guess I didn't mention, but these will be pretty much exclusively for gaming, including taking them to LANs, if that matters at all.
