What would you guys recommend?

The TactX Headset is nice if you don't use the mic. http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/products/Gaming_Audio/productdetail.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=dhs&cs=19&sku=313-7972

Personally, I use Tritton AX 720's for gaming. They work great with both my PS3 and Xbox 360. If you have an optical out connection on your PC, I don't see why they wouldn't work. The sound is great and mic volume is adjustable seperately from the games sound settings. Best investment I have ever made.

im using turtle beach x41 and love them they great on the xbox and i bought a $4 thing so they work with the pc sound good and im good and clear when talking to people

I just looked up the Tritton ax 720 and it looks really good!

how long have you had it for?

Yeah, I had the x41's prior to the Trittons. They were a decent headset. my best advice is to pick either up at a retailer with a generous return policy and try both out. I don't think you can find a better set at your local retailer.

If money isn't a huge factor, the Astro A40's are a stellar headet. I have a dorky friend that lives by these and after trying them I can honestly say I was very impressed. http://www.astrogaming.com

I've been using my Trittons for about a year and a half. I had the X41 before those and wasn't happy with the build quality, but they sounded very nice. To me the Trittons are much more comfortable, but it really is a matter of preferance.

I'm using the BOSE QuietComfort 15, not really is a gaming headset to be honest, but it is brilliant.

Something comfortable!

corsair vengeance 1500.

been using these for a couple of months now. Really good headset for the price.

What price range are you looking at? If you don't need a microphone then the HD 598 or 558 by Sennheiser are excellent all-around headphones.

If you need a headset then the Astro A40 or A30 are excellent choices.

All of those are towards the upper end of headphones/headsets for gaming though.

a40s and a30s are amazing, especially with the mixamp if you do not have a price range then i say go for them.
You can use them for xbox ps3 and your mp3, not to mention that you can take off the mic and use it as a very big headset

i use a Bose AE 2 i think, i bought them for music but now i also use them for playing on my laptop and my xbox 360, they are not a real gaming headset but i prove the tritton 720 from a friend and the sound was very similar, the only difference i found is that with the 720 you hear better the little sounds like steps

id go with the tactx works great for me

You need a converter that has a 2.5mm audio jack female input with a 3.5mm audio
jack and then just plug the part that would go into your controller into it

and if you wanna go all out and get the 7.1 surround then do this skip to the pc part
