Hey guys

My $100 turtlebeaches have fucked up on their 4th month of use and I have only just heard that Turtlebeach quality and reliability is sub par. In short, never buying them again

What would you guys suggest for a headset? preferably less than $100 and definitely reliable.

Still pissed that my $15 big W headset lasted a few years longer than it.

Don't buy Razer. Headsets break like no tomorrow.

damn right, my razers broke 2 weeks after use, $150 down the shitter.

My $50 sennheisers are quite good, cant give you a product key though, but i have had many before this one and its lasted over a year and a half for me.

Logitech G35's are good. Think they're about $100 now from Umart and what not.

My turtle beach set are unreliable .
Had a pair of logitech USB that lasted ages but were uncomfortable.
Seems that is the toss up reliable or comfortable

[Carples]

I think it is the type of cable used in the turtle beach that is sub part i.e. copper outer sheath touching and also being part of circuit.

My $40 Plantronics headset lasts for me around 2 years or so. Never had a problem with them, sound quality is fine. There is another version that costs $90, no idea what the difference with it is. Over the ear cover, padded and a decent length for the cable. If it breaks in 1-2 years I think you get your moneys worth.

Plantronics - Gamecom

pretty much the background noise of anything becomes more than noticeable but the main sound (ie dialogue in a show and whatnot) are barely audible; I moved my cable around and it fixes it for about 2 seconds so chances are thats the problem.

had mine over 2 years now and going strong.  plus no cables trip over

[mandatory05]

OMG PLANTRONICS, those are brilliant, the quality, longevity and comfort from them surpass even some headsets worth $150.

[Shimzor]

Dunno mate sorry, just says Gamecon on it. Anything under $50 with over ear and a mic, there should not be many of them.

Anything that's surround sound, or anything that is advertised as a "gaming" headset is a product to avoid like the plague.

obviously the ladies treat dex like a product advertised as a "gaiming " one.

Had some plantronics in the past, they were great. currently got some TDK ones, also good.. annoys me though that headsets do only last a year or 2.... always the cords that cause the issue...

yeah, a mate of mine has them. absolutely brilliant but they arent for me at that price (and Im done with most wireless stuff now)

Im looking at either one of the many plantronics gamecon whatchamacallems or the Logitech G35 as posted earlier

why do I want to avoid anything thats surround sound, harry?
