Final Verdict:

Rank Headphone/Headset Movies Music Games
1) Sennheiser HD590 4.7 4.8 4.8
Pound for pound the most enjoyable headset that’s within legitimate budgets. It’s worth every penny.


2) Sennheiser PC150 (buy) 4 4 4.2
Second? Yes second! Remember we are talking best value versus quality. The PC150’s have it all.


3) Sennheiser HD570 4.4 4.6 4.5
Almost there, but the HD590s are too good to be true.


4) Sennheiser HD280 4.4 4.6 4.5
LANs, studios, games, movies, or whatever. They are just that good.


5) Sony MDR 7506 4.5 4.5 4.4
Close to the HD280s but not quite there. Great sound and very sturdy.


6) BoseTriPort/ QuietComfort 4 4.2 4
Awesome sound that could use a slight kick start in the bass department. Price will pretty much make these headsets an out of reach product.


7) Plantronics DSP500 4 3.8 4
Great sound for the price, and the on board sound processor make them a strong buy, but the reliability factor knocks them down a few notches.


8) Plantronics .Audio90 3 3 3
Extremely common headset among gamers and regular computer users, but you won’t blow any doors off of any hinges anytime soon.
