Go for quality and drop the headset idea and buy good headphones and attach a cheep mic to it.

Definitely follow this advice. I can't give any advice for that price range though unfortunately. I've got two Audio Technica headphones M50x and AD700x for closed and open designs respectively and I'm pretty sure they're above your price but maybe not on sale shrug. Can't be bothered converting from NZD right now heh. The mic I use is this http://www.modmic.com/ which is just convenient for attaching and decent quality. But you could grab some velcro stickers and throw them on anything. I don't play on a desk so a table mic doesn't suit me.

I have a behringer HPX2000 for everything that doesn't needs a mic, and they're nice.
For when I do need a mic I have a GX Mordax that I wouldn't recomend honestly, it's only good for talking and on-line gaming, they suck for music and stuff like that.

I have an HPX4000, and the audio quality is great (awesome freq response), but it's so stiff it hurts my ears :(
is the 2000 comfortable? I was considering a switch.

For me it is, it's one of those headphones that twist in many directions so it fits confy on my head.
I asked to try them before buying them just to be sure, maybe you can find a store that allows you to do the same.

I definitely should. My mistake was buying mine online as I often buy stuff from Gear4Music so I had a little discount.

They are way too expensive for me I am looking more for durability than quality.I can settle for medium quality.Something that will keep it's performance for more than 2 years.

I bought it in my country(which is Turkey) so I don't know :D Cloud Core doesn't have USB audio control box with built-in DSP sound card but I am satisfied with my headset. Very comfortable.

I don't like headsets that much, I prefer surround sound systems but I have a fake small Beats one just in case I needed a headset.

using sennheizer 449? (well they look similar to mine anyway) for about 4-5 years now. i can only recomment them. there is no mic so you would need to get a separate mic. i dropped them (headphones) quite a few times and they still work :) also when i got them i got 2x 1meter cables with them + the cable from the headphones itself is about 1.5 meters. and if they break someday i would by them again

I use a Sennheiser HD 558 cups paired with a Zalman ZM-MIC1, all plugged into a Soundblaster Z sound card. I'm quite satisfied with this setup for games. Oh, don't buy any "gaming" headset - they are all way overpriced for their sound quality. It's always better to buy the best stereo headphones you can get for the money and slap a cheap and good mic on them, like aforementioned Zalman.

Do you play FPS games? You said before that you live with a roommate - you need closed cups for maximum silence or the open ones (with the sound leaking outside) would suffice?

Currently, I'm using a Koss SB/45, and I would not recommend it. it's not the worst headset I've ever used, but you can find better ones in that price range, and it sometimes sounds a bit tinny.

If you were using a Razer Kraken for 2 years, and you've liked it, why change? I bought a Razer Kraken about 2-3 years ago, and I was overusing it. After 1 year and 2-3 months, it died (sound was only coming from one side). I was trying to see which other headphones could fit me, because I have really big and splayed ears, but there wasn't a single headphone, which could fit these requirements. So I chose the Razer Kraken Pro Neon and it works perfectly. It's really comfortable (as you might have experienced), and it has really good quality. In my opinion don't change :)

Hah, thanks for this comment. My current Razer Kraken Pro headset is only outputting sound from the right. Possibly because I've dropped(accidentally) them several times but I've had it for about a year or so. I believe the mic stopped working too.

I used Siberia V2, but when i saw Hyper X Cloud II on sale, i immediately got it. The Siberia was kinda annoying for my ears, but the Hyper X is fantastic. The quality of the sounds is great, and it fits my ears perfect, so i wont feel anything <3

I have a pair of Razor Kraken headphones... they work alright, but my favor pair of head phones on the cheap is the Playstation Gold Wireless headphones. They are by far the most comfortable headphones I have ever worn, I have a big head. Just make sure you get the ones with the new hinges instead of the old shitty hinges.
