    Default Spec me a headset

    Currently i have an Ozone Stratos Evo, good headset and i like it, nice sound quality and comfortable, but slowly over time the right side extender clip thingi has cracked as is currently held together with gaffa-tape

    Any suggestions? Looking to spent around the £50-70 mark.

    Thanks in advance

    won a pair of these over at the red place ages ago & they broke within a few months, the soundcard went on it.

    Couldn't agree more. Best gaming headset on the market in the £50-£70 price range
    I saw a woman earlier today who had no chin and all I could think about was "how does she put pillow cases on?"

    Kaves are uncomfortable and break practically instantly.

    I'd say go for a Sennheiser headset.

    Do you have an unusually small/large head?

    They're made of metal, don't break (they might break whatever you happen to drop them on, like your foot), and have big thick plush cushions... Admittedly they are a little heavier than most headsets which takes a little getting used to, and the cushions can make you hot in the summer, but other than that they're amazing...

    Opted for a pair of Kaves. Friend as a pair says they're pretty decent. Reviews seem to be a bit mixed though. Generally quite like Roccat gear though, have a mouse and keyboard set.

    I don't personally use them, this is just what a few of my friends have said about them.
