I use Plantronics Gamecom 377 open headset (I can still hear the kids if they wake up :P )
The Gamecom 777 headset is enclosed, and probably better for your needs. Great set for a reasonable price. I can wear these things for hours on end, and never have any sweat, or discomfort. Brilliant design.

Most comfortable set I have had. Better than my Logitec gaming headset and my Creative HS-1000 Fatal1ty USB Gaming Headset (Wife now has these
) and my Sennheiser PC 166 Headset, which broke within months (over rated) :evil:

All depends on how much you want to spend, and whats important to you. Build quality, sound quality, comfort, functions, mic, surround sound, weight, etc etc

I use the Sennheiser PC 151, find it ok. all fine with it. In the time were i am searching for a new headset there was no good surround headset(for a good price) so i bought the sennheiser.

the german amazon shows a rating of 4,5 stars in 107 replys. (73*5 points, 0*1 point).

Sennheiser is a big name in germany for soundsystems. But if you need a new speaker, then i would buy a logitech system.

you can use the 3,5 mm phone jack directly for your soundcard OR you use the given USB Soundcard and plugin the headset. Our "old" soundcard needs no usb jack (never seen a sound card with an own usb jack).

Im using Medusa 5.1 ProGamer Edition

They are good even though I though at first they were faulty :)

I don't like the padding while good the cups are very big, so your ears are inside the cups and can press against the speakers.

Otherwise I like.

Yeh Nemisis,

You can just use them as normal head-phones, plugged into the sound card with the mic and stereo leads (as I do) or use the USB sound card. Nice that they give you the choice. Really pleased with these.
