Quality/Reasonably Priced Mic/Headset

[Aldersan]

So, recently the mic on my headset died. Which really sucks, because I like my headset a lot lol.

Anyways, I was wondering if you guys knew of any good mics, clip on or whatnot, that are NOT USB, since I have a good sound card and would prefer to use it lol.

Failing that, any suggestions on good and reasonably priced headsets with 3.5mm inputs would be appreciated!

Thanks!

I have the 1st gen Faita1ty headset. Love it. Comfy for 14+ hours of gaming and sound is amazing. Even on my onboard sound.

I have a lot of experience with headsets actually. (BTW- I have to agree about the lousy quality of Creative Labs over the last few years, their hardware failure rate for me has been approaching 100%). I have Sennheiser wireless which is nice and has decent bass for a wireless but not very practical due to frequency interference which almost always shows up to some level. I can't speak to bluetooth wireless signal though, that might be ok. After that, I picked up a Triton high end set which can use an optical input as well as coax digital and the triple 3.5mm jacks. Sound quality is quite good, bass is average, and I never could get the mic portion working correctly. The most recent set I have used was the cheapest, used USB, and has had the most impressive sound I have heard in any headset hands down. I compared it to a very expensive Bose set and it blew it away. Logitech g35, it is USB which you don't seem to want, but they do 7.1 DD, have real balls in terms of volume, very crisp and explosive bass, and clear as can be. For the money and the quality, I would certainly recommend it over the others.

I have the G35s and love them. They sound really nice in games and playing music.

I'm wanting to try out the Cyborg F.R.E.Q. 5 headset though. It's not released yet but should be a similar price to the G35 set.

Yep the Mark 1. I got it roughly 5 years ago and its still going strong.
