Which headphones should I buy (no amp, use: gaming with Audigy 2 ZS Notebook)

post #1 of 3

Which headphones should I buy? I would use them with my laptop which has Creative Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS Notebook. I would do all my gaming with them. I do have Sennheiser HD-600 headphones and a Corda headphone amp, but always connecting the interconnects from my A/V amp to my notebook starts to get on my nerves.

I have been looking for a pair of good headphones that would also feature a mike but for example Logitech has these really low-end models only. I was one day visiting the Steelpad site, you know Steelpad mousepads, and they make these great looking headphones with mikes that have been designed by gamers. Also, Koss seems to have one or two good models. The problem is that I really wouldn't like to pay more than maybe 10-200 dollars for them.

Opinions?

since you have the audigy 2 zs and don't need usb connectivity, you might want to try the Sennheiser PC 150: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16826106346

I just ordered the usb version and I'll put a mini-review of it up either thursday or friday...I also looked at the steelpads, but they were just too expensive for me right now (on their site shipping added about $40 to the cost)...

I think the Sennheiser headphone-mike combos are too small and really quite similar to Logitech's products. Well the Steelpad 5H (without the USB soundcard thing) costs 105 dollars plus shipping in my country. That's not so bad. My only question is are they any good eventhough they have been build by professional gamers.
