Hey guys

Just wondering everyone's opinions on what type of headset i should buy. Im quite unsure at the moment but i want a good quality headset and i don't mind paying alot of money. I mainly play League of legends and call of duty so i would be wanting a surround sound headset and the main thing i want the headset for is listening to music. a headset with alot of bass would be amazing, at the moment im using a logitech g930

Two of the headsets i have been looking at are the astro a50, a few sennheiser products and the razer tiamat 7.1

I love the wireless headsets better as my g930 is wireless and the freedom to walk around and listen to music and such is just great.

just wondering if anyone has any better options or opinions on these headsets

Thankyou :)

HEADPHONES
We are often asked, “Which are the best headphones?”
WELL, the best headphones sound better than ANY speakers. AND these will run on less power than speakers do, too. You can plug them directly into the computer…and get great sound quality.

IMHO The best headphones are made by STAX.

Once you see and hear STAX, you will realize that ALL other headphones are LESS than Stax. Now see what you can get, based on your own budget.
Maybe you don’t have $3000.00 to spend on headphones? Well, there are other alternatives that sound pretty darn good. But, anything less than STAX is a compromise.

IMHO Sennheiser: probably the second best choice, if you don’t have $3000.00...

The BEST headphones cover the entire ear, like a CUP.
ANY headphone that presses against the ear will cause discomfort and PAIN. You have been warned.

VISIT your local hi fi shop and TRY for yourself, several different headphones.
Reviews mean nothing, compared to your OWN TASTE.
DO NOT allow a salesperson to influence your choices. DO NOT allow reviews on the internet, to influence your taste in sound quality.
DECIDE what is best YOURSELF. TRY first, then BUY.
