They suck. Put in the extra money to get a decent headset.
Which version will be good?
Parent
HD595 should be fine indeed.

I don't know how good those forums are tbh as I'm no audio freak, but seems like you get a general idea by browsing around it.
Parent
Only problem is that the headset is about 10x more expensive than the one he's looking at. :x
Parent
yeah, but he should be able to double the price of that hd201, get something better. I'd assume even the PC151 and PC161 from Sennheiser is way better.

I myself use Beyerdynamics dt234 and they beat the shit out of PC161.
Parent
Never heard of the Beyerdynamics headsets, good for price?
Parent
Perhaps a tad bit more expensive than Sennheisers, at least here in Norway, but I'd recommend them over PC161 any day.
PC 161 is about 75 euro while the Beyer's are 90-95 euro as far as I remember.

They don't look as fancy as the Sennheisers though, so I guess some teens will go for the "cooler" look :P
Parent
Like I did when I got my SS 5H V2. :x

It's an OK headset, but I'd rather have a pair of Audio Technicas and a table mic or something. :P
Parent
ye, but I have a nasty habit of running over cords with my pc chair, so I'm not trusting myself with a really expensive headset yet ;)
Parent
I got it 2 days ago and I like it, it's lightweight, circumaural, sound is satisfying for it's price, bass is maybe a bit insufficient but that can be solved by sound drivers, mid and high tones are good, all in all a very nice headset

only downside is that it's kinda quiet, you need to turn up your sound quite a lot to get the best out of it, but I must admit it's starting to sound better and better after some burn-in
Can you make screen from your sound drivers settings?
Parent
I got custom drivers so I doubt it would help you, just play around with settings in your sound card drivers and you'll get it there, it doesn't need much fiddling with it
Parent
they rock! best headphones in that price-range
that headset is like 30 euro's .. that means that you have to work 30 hours to get that headset.. do you rly want to spend so much money for a headset?
I got it for 13€ brand new
Parent
the he has to work 13 hours
Parent
what kind of work do you do that you get payed 1€/h?
Parent
i dont get 1 euro/h .. but ppl from PL does, i have my polish contacts which are saying that, so 30 euro's is alot for that guy.. i think.. so maybe he better can buy some normal hs from 5 euro or someting
Parent
According to Central Bureau of Statistics the average wage per month is 2500 PLN a month(as of 2004). That's about 12.5 PLN per hour(assuming they're some busy bees and work 50 hours a week to afford expensive headsets), which again is about 3.5 euro per hour.

But I suppose the average week in Poland is 37.5-40 hours as with other countries more or less. So that's about 15.6 PLN per hour which then again is 4.34 euro.

So I guess it is possible that some make 1 euro per hour, but even for a polak that sounds too little.
Parent
why fail? A polish guy earns 1 euro p/hour, its not fake
Parent
once again you fail
Parent
they do actually :D
Parent
perhaps teens do, but check http://www.stat.gov.pl/gus/index_ENG_HTML.htm All about poland :P
Parent

terrible

You mean you use headsets? :OO
Parent
it all depends on what u expect from a headset and how much u would pay.
If u wanna listen music in good quality, dont take headset, if u wanna paly paly, dont buy expensive one
lol?

So you're saying if you wanna game, you won't benefit and enjoy a good headset? gtfo
Parent
"if u wanna paly paly, dont buy expensive one"

enjoy a good headset but not expensive one
Parent
Crappy headsets are cheap, good headsets are "expensive". If you play just a little bit serious, get a good headset even though it costs a bit.
Parent
not really, the sennheiser hd201 is not expensive, and is much better than expensive headsets like a 5hv2.
All headsets are totally overprised cause of their mic or cause they are "made for gamers" which is totally bullshit, they only got a bit more treble, but you can also do that with an equaliser.
Parent
Only retards buys headsets that advertises "FOR GAMERS". I'm not saying that there isn't crappy headsets at double of hd201 price, I'm just saying that most of them are better.

The hd201 is not a good headset per say, it's a good headset for it's pricerange, that I agree. But there's a big difference.
Parent
now you're calling 3/4 of the gaming community a retard :D

how many percent of the crossfire users would have a 3h,4h, 5h,5hv2, sibera, pc150/160,pc350 , medasa, barracuda , .. ?
Parent
I am indeed, and I've called them that before;) Ignorance is bliss, fact is that people play with worse sound than they could/should.
Parent
if so, we are just saying the same , only in another price range. :)
Parent
QuoteIf u wanna listen music in good quality, dont take headset

You sir, are utterly clueless.
Parent
expensive headphones ar better as expensive headsets
Parent
A headset is synonymous with a pair of headphones...
Parent
