Currently looking for a good gaming headset since my old one broke.
Preferably between $50-$70. Any advice?

You might as well get the best now so you don't worry about upgrading later. |

Plus if you have a headset with many drivers in each ear, they will have to be smaller (sacrificing bass) and the positioning wouldn't be that great, since the 'fronts' wouldn't be in front, they would be further to the side. Same with the 'rears' |
