Since its Xmas, I decided to spend a bit of money and got myself a GAMING headset. Did I make a mistake?
Pic related.

Yes, you fucking retard. You only need a good pair of headphones and a cheapo ~$10 desk mic unless you're doing professional recordings or some shit.
>>
That one is okay OP.

Welp.
At least I didn't spend too much. I was thinking of a desk mic but I really wanted one integrated with the headphones. Yes I know you can tape a cheapo mic on onto a good pair of headphones but I didn't want to do that.

I don't have anything against headsets, but Steelseries stuffs are fucking SHIT.

So yes, you made a mistake.

I really like the microphone in this, since it doesn't go loose like the ones that bend to the side of the headphones.
But just after a couple of years one of the dynamics died. Hopefully yours will live longer. Shit's comfy.

Which brand do you recommend, then? They only stocked Logitech, Armageddon (lolwhat), Razer (lol Razer) and steelseries here, and thus it was the least-shit option I chose after extensive Google research.

they had a sale for senheiser hd 598 black editions for 99 where were you lol?
>>
>>321381304
Why do you say that? I've had a Rival mouse and it's pretty great. So far it's holding up better than my Logitechs

So what's a good desk top mic?

I want one that picks up my voice clearly, but doesn't pick up shit like typing sounds.

>2016 the year of the meme
>not getting meme headphones like audio technica or sennheiser
What's wrong with you?

Buddy of mine has those, there pretty comfortable

I have a pair of M50x and while they are the best headphones for that price bracket, they really are not that great to wear for long periods of time.

I find ears getting sore after awhile

I had the same experience with the m50s, but after wearing them for a year now, I hardly notice any ear pain. I think they wore out and stopped clamping so tightly to my head, which makes them less sound isolating, but more comfy. EIther that or my ears just grew calloused from so much tight headphone use.

I bought the 598 sennheisers off amazon (like a bunch of people did) because they were on sale for 95$ on black friday. Those have really big ears and a ton of cushion, so they're actually pretty comfy.
