Looking for a good headset

[bladefd]

Hi, I was looking for a good inexpensive(NOT cheap) headset. My budget is around 20-30 bucks. It's not much money for a gaming headset but I don't want to spend too much. I need one for playing CSS. I was going to spend like 50-60 but decided to spend half of that and save the rest for a computer upgrade later in the year. What headset would you recommend for that budget? I saw several on newegg but decided to ask here since I don't know much about headsets. I want some comfortable headset.I currently have these -- http://www.newegg.com/app/View...=26-106-384&depa=0 --. They are terrible headphones. They kill my ears. Plus, they don't have a mic on them. I do not like using seperate mics. Thanks and happy new year.

Too bad you're going back to the cheap route, these would fit your original price range perfectly.

You can get USED Sennheiser PC150 from EBAY.

I don't exactly trust ebay. I mean anyone can get ripped off if they are not careful. I am kind of looking at Plantronics GameCom 1. http://www.plantronics.com/gam...ngMenu&amp;WT.mc_n=nam <--- the last row and the one to the left. They look pretty good.

I was wondering if the sennheiser headphones get rid of the background noise. Actually, I am not even sure if any headphones get rid of background noise.

Senn PC 150 Specs. And if you look around, they can be found in the low $30s.

I've tried those, &amp; they sound very crappy compared to my Sennheiser PC150s.

Seriously, it's worth spending a bit more to get the Sennheiser PC150s.

Maybe I might order PC150. Only thing is that I don't like background noise to enter the mic while playing CSS. It would annoy the team if they keep hearing the sound of a tv going on or someone screaming(like my brother or something).

I would recommend reading Newegg's reviews for the PC150 and see if anyone talks about the background noise.

Also try Amazon.com as well.
