So I've recently gotten back into being picky about my audio. I, long ago in my teens, was into music production and had a pretty nice setup. Since then, almost 10 years ago, so much has changed in the field. I no longer mess with music, but I am big into gaming now. I've been using a set of PC360's for a few months and I'm impressed with the overall balance they have. I've recently ordered a Xonar Essence STX because I feel the onboard just doesn't cut it anymore.
Now, I'm wondering a few things. I split my time on the PC between gaming, music and Netflix by about 40/40/20. I want to have the best experience I can without breaking the bank because I'm about to upgrade to an additional GPU and add 2 more monitors(screens, not speakers) for surround gaming. Is sticking with the PC360/Essence combo good enough or will I benefit from upgrading my cans as well?
I tested a few of the more popular headsets for gaming and the 360's gave the best balanced performance. If there's a better option out there, I will definitely think about going with that and buying a clip-on Zalman or something.
Thanks guys and glad to be here.
