I ordered some mediocre USB rosewill headset with my rig, we'll see how it goes. says virtual 7.1 and had a decent sound range on it, but I get the feeling I'm gonna be getting a $5 separate mic and using my sennheiser headphones.

I'll let ya know how it works when I get everything up and running friday night/saturday.

edit: it was $25 on newegg

I just got my brand new astro a40 system and gave my sweet siberia v2 a rest. I love the a40 already! it´s really comfortable and has a nice design wich you could customize if you want to. With the mix amp its easy to adjust sound and switch between dobly surround sound and stereo for music and in game. only bad thing about it is the 280 euros you gotta pay for it :) i found it worth it's price but thats me.

But seriously I use HD555 for gaming for like 5 years now, still the first set.

Very comfortable, easy to wash the pads, good sound quality with very decently wide soundstage and excellent 3D imaging.
I've seen these go for 60$ a while ago on sale. You could also get one of the lower HD series, comfort level is the same.
I use sennheiser as well, probably THEE best company producing the best quality headphones known to god... That's just my opinion. I had those then sold them and moved up to the 650's which is what i've owned for about 2-3 years now. I'll be staying with the 650's

I had the HD600s which were my fav of all times combined with a tube amp. But I sold them in order to try other headphones.
