This comment will probably get buried but I figured I would offer my opinion. I researched headsets for hours before settling on these. I would like to start this review by saying these are nice headphones, they work great, and I do enjoy them. However, if I were to start this process over again, I would not buy these and here is why:
1) I have a large head (size 7 3/4 in baseball caps) and these are a little snug. They end up hurting after long hours gaming. I sometimes game for 4-5 hours at a time (if not more). They hurt the top of my ears and I look forward to bathroom/drink breaks to give my ears some relief. 2) This is probably obvious given the make of the headset, but if I were to buy another pair, I would want closed back headphones. Yes, open back have a larger sound stage but in noisy environments, this headphones are hard to hear (even on the loudest setting). I am lucky enough that my current set-up has three tvs for gaming (one friend on each tv) and two tvs for sports (especially important during the start of the mlb season with nba/nhl playoffs on... but I digress). It is hard for me to hear my game with so much going on. Again, this is probably obvious to some of you, but for others like me who were new to this process, this is important. 3) Probably most important. If I were to go through the process of buying headphones again, I would invest in a very nice pair of non-gaming headphones. I would then buy a mod-mic or connect an external mic to my system. I cannot stress this enough. I read hundreds of reviews that recommended doing this but being lazy/never having done this before, I did not take buying a separate mic/headphones serious. GO THIS ROUTE!!!!!
