Ive read a reveiw that the Sennheiser 155 is really good.

The trick to picking good headphones (or any speakers) is to find the ones with the biggest range. If they don't list the range of the speakers then they probably suck. Also, if you want best sound quality get the kind that cup your entire ear. Also make sure the mic has an air gaurd on it. The air gaurd can a big difference in the quality of your voice in teamspeak or whatever voice program you're using, especially when it's a small bit-rate codec.

Will it say on the packaging that it has an air guard?

Just look at the picture, If it has a phone thing on the mic, that is the air-guard.

I have a Cyber Acustics that has worked flawlessly for over a year. It's been dropped on, stommped on, and drop in a stein of beer. Thing still works great. True stereo sound so I can hear directional noises.

Oh, $25 is what it cost me.

Er, phone thing?

The foam/spongy thing?

Damnit, damnit, damnit...


FOAM not phone

[FlakMan]

So the foam is actually on the mic? It's not just part of the packaging?

[NoSurrender]

its usually just a piece of a foam thats on the mic. I usualy take mine off. Some mics the foam is actually attached though.
