Hello! I'm new to the forum and not an audio expert by any means, so pardon any incorrect information I may post.
I'm looking for a good headset to last me at least the next four years. I'm a college student so the budget isn't big lol, preferably under 50 but 70 is pushing it.
I'm currently looking at these headsets:
Steelseries Siberia V2 - http://www.amazon.com/dp/B003N636VI/?tag=extension-kb-20
Noontec Zoro - http://www.amazon.com/Noontec-Adjustable-Earphone-Headphone-Cellphone/dp/B007OWT1VG/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1413830159&sr=8-2&keywords=noontec+zoro
Photive BH3 - http://www.amazon.com/Photive-Bluetooth-Headphones-Battery-Includes/dp/B00HTPHK5W/ref=zg_bs_172541_20
Razer Kraken Pro - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826153147&SortField=0&SummaryType=0&PageSize=10&SelectedRating=-1&VideoOnlyMark=False&IsFeedbackTab=true#scrollFullInfo
Audio Technica ATH-M30x - http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HVLUQW8/?tag=extension-kb-20
HyperX Cloud Pro - http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00JJNQG98/?tag=extension-kb-20
I'm looking for these things:
1) Comfort. I wear headphones quite often and often for 3-4 hours at a time. I used to have a pair of JVC HA-RX700 but the leatherette cups got really warm and uncomfortable, the cups would push against my glasses uncomfortably, and the headband pressed down hard on my head too. Sound was amazing, but I sold it because it was just too uncomfortable for me.
2) Price. I'm a college student with at most 70 to spend. I realize there are really good ones at 100, 200, and 500, but they're all outside my budget Suggestions within the budget would be much appreciated!
3) Sound Quality. Just because it's 3 doesn't mean it's not important I listen to a lot of music while studying and in my leisure time, and I can definitely hear the difference between earbuds, intro headphones, mid-range headphones, and $300+ ones.
My primary activities will be listening to music (classical, jazz, rap, hip-hop, and metal) and gaming. I use my headphones for positional shots as Razer Surround audio software does a decent job emulating surround sound on stereo headphones.
Thanks in advance!
