There's some really cheap ones out there that work better than the expensive kind...

 

[blasio]

multimedia: sennheiser hd555 or hd598 or some big ass over-ear sennheiser
portable: koss portapro
mic: thermaltake esports shock one or razer megalodon or some cool ass razer set

i use the hd555 all day and it's very nice

You're being a little vague on what you'd use them for. I'll assume PC and TS/Ventrillo.

http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-7-1-Channel-Surround-Sound-Headset/dp/B001O5CCQK if you want a full headset.

http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Wireless-Gaming-Headset-Surround/dp/B003VANOFY if you want the wireless version of the same set.

I've never used the wireless version, but I know people who have and they work just as good.

I'm sure there are better headsets out there, but I've had these for five or so years now and they still work great. However, If you're looking for a set with a 3.5mm jack, these won't work.

I have turtlebeach x12's that are like 80 bucks, they're pretty good.

If you want a headset, it'll probably benefit you more in terms of quality to get the microphone and headphones seperately. Unless, of course, you actually want them together.

I actually have a set of studio phones, which I use with a rockband microphone for ventrilo.

 

[Rampage]

Get one with a thick wire or you'll be buying a new one in 9 months.

 

[Krieg]

honestly I think the best thing would be to get a pair of really high quality headphones and buy a mic separately
ive grown not to trust full headsets

 

[RevolverOcelot56]

I just got a Razer Tiamat 2.2 and its pretty solid. Might switch it out for a Blackshark though.

 

[Lucifer]

probably best to get a headphone and mic separately as I keep hearing that getting both is a sign of shit quality.
the turtle beach x12's look quite reasonable for the price though, how good are they are blocking out background noise? I'm looking for something that has full ear coverage and blocks out background noise whilst giving crisp base. Budget can be anything from $0-200, would rather it was kept near the midpoint of the spectrum.

 

[brim]

soak me in hot muff

 

[Lucifer]

can you simply plug in the tiamat/megalololodon into an ipod via an aux cable, right?
and does the little shitty sound control box get annoying having to carry it around

[Lucifer]

feck, well I'm wanting something that is both portable and packs a punch in terms of bang for buck.~

and

I just dislike the latter because no detatchable mic will make me look like a mong waering it around campus and in a library n shit

 

[Hoplite]

ATH-M50s would be a very good choice for you, then.

For a microphone, look into a zalman clip-on mic, they're excellent for the price they're at (so everybody says). Or even an antlion modmic(I'm going to get one of those soon).
