need help on headset

I use my iPhone headphones. Seem to work fine for me. :p my brother has some turtle beaches that I've used a few times. They're not bad.
 
What's your price range? I've used my Audio Technica ATH-AD700's ($110 on Amazon) for years and have been extremely satisfied, however they don't have a microphone built in.
 
I love my Logitech G35 from best buy was like 80 bucks or something... it's amazing, they have a wireless version, but I love my wired version. The sound is crystal clear and has a bunch of hotkeys on the side of the headset as well as volume control.

I won that pair in a raffle about half a year ago and they have worked great from day 1 with no problems. I love them, and they are much better than my first two pairs which included a Koss and a Logitech. (Koss ended up having the mic stop working and Logitech had one headphone break off after becoming loose, thought the mic and other headphone continued to work).

Anyway, they are on sale at the moment so if you're looking for a good deal you can save 20 bucks off the normal price and go for the pair. Just my recommendation. : )


Edit-

Also, the one real problem (if a problem) is that the earphones have a fabric rather than rubber and if you have longer hair like I do it gets hair collected on it as clothes would with a dog. It actually makes it more comfortable and helps block out sound (which is very good).

And another thing, I forgot to mention the noise cancellation system. The mic is actually two mics, one close to your moth and the other side facing away. Any sounds closer to the outer mic get dimmed out, while the ones closer to the inner mic play on. It helps a bit.

I've used those headphones for a while too, sad I got rid of them. Definitely a gamers headphone though if you don't mind the open design (everyone can hear what you are listening to). Amazing sound stage and visualization you can hear exactly where everyone is. The bass is tight but lacks any power. I won't be missing those ugly purple grills though.
 
I have the Logitech G930 and I can't say enough about it. You must buy it.
 
I have a $3 headset I bought off of Amazon and they've held up just fine for the past couple of years. They have pretty good sound, and an okay mic., but the cheap price more than compensates for that.
 
just remember this the more expensive the headset, most of the time you are going to need a sound card that can get the potential of your headset

I am not a tech junky, but I think USB headsets have their own sound cards, so they won't use the sound card you have in your computer.

right completely forgot about that, USB headsets are a great alternative if you want to save some money from buying a sound card but most of the time a great sound card with a great headset paired with it will out perfom any USB headset any day.
It all depends on what you have and what you want
