Hello folks! This is my first post here.

 

Im looking for an headphones to use on my daily basis on my computer. Its going to be around 50% gaming and 50% media.

 

I saw the plantronics gamecom 377, 380 and the panasonic htf600. I have a microphone already so it wouldnt be a problem. Are the panasonic ones good for games? The price range is around this.

 

Thank you guys!

First you might want to specify your budget and the kinds of music you listen to.

 

Oh, and welcome to Head-Fi, sorry about your wallet!

The budget is around the price of those headphones, 40€. My music taste is all kinds of metal and rock. Gaming is FPS mainly...

 

And thanks for the welcome!!wink.gif

Heya,

 

The HTF600 will do quite perfectly for your needs and budget.

 

700 700 700

 

 

Fantastic for gaming and all genres of music for the cost.

 

Very best,

I read your review and finally I found one talking about how these headphones perform in gaming. Thank you! But during my research I found these ones: Superlux HD681. Which one is better for the things I want? I shall say that the games I play are SP and MP (BF3) too, even though not competitive, just for fun.

The superlux are fun headphones to listen to. It have a good bass response with nice mids and highs, being semi open they have a better soundstage than the Panasonic.

Should I go for the Superlux then? Are there some others around the same price but better?

They seem to be fairly good at everything, and they come standard with Velour ear pads.

Should I go for the Takstar Hi2050 instead the Panasonic and the Superlux? I never head of Takstar before... Are they really that better in comparison to the HTF600?

Never mind about the Takstar Hi2050, i just updated my ears and for some reason the bass is sounding "funny" on the Hi2050.

 

Edit, just realized I was liking to a bad quality mp3 (128k), sounds better with a 320K mp3.

I just read in some review that the bass on the Takstar ones sounds a bit low, yes. Thanks for the tip!

 

Anyway, on my research I found these ones: Samson SR850. Are these good enough? I can get them for around 35€. I see that you have ones, PurpleAngel. Any good?
