What gaming headset do you use?

[Zenith.UK]

May I quote Pratchett here...

The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money.

Take boots, for example. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. Those were the kind of boots Vimes always bought and wore until the soles were so thin that he could tell where he was in Ankh-Morpork on a foggy night by the feel of the cobbles.

But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that'd still be keeping his feet dry in ten years' time, while a poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet.

This was the Captain Samuel Vimes 'Boots' theory of socio-economic unfairness.

It's so true about many things as well... gaming headsets being one example. Cheap ones don't last as long, but expensive ones tend to last ages.

used the Genius HS-04SU HEadset

A Byte Apart : Genius Gaming Headset (Page 1 of 4)

Good quality and lasted a good long time. Wear and tear starting to show now with some of the strapping tearing/pulling.

priced at around £10

Doesnt matter so much now - i dont play any online gaming now.

This is about 5 years old. It's been used pretty consistently and it's never not worked. Sound quality is good and the mic is clear and crisp.
Oh and it cost about $5 AUD.
