How to choose a decent headset?

[Doneyettalfa]

I want to buy a headset to listen music and conversation. but I'm not sure which brand is good and bad. :- I'm new to this area so I usually just check the features on the package and see if anything interesting. lol You guys are the expert so can anyone recommend so great choices to me? Thanks!

Hi and welcome!

 

I'm no expert in this, but are you sure you want a headset, i.e., a headphone with an integrated microphone?

 

The best headsets cost hundreds of dollars while rarely approaching the sound quality of 100 dollar headphones. If you really need a microphone, I would recommend getting it separately.

 

Cheers,

Probably the best headset for music and conversation is the senheiser pc 360. The beyerdynamic mmx-300 is also good. They are both based off of audiophile headphones with attached mics. It would be better/cheaper to get a cheap headset for conversation and get a separate get a good can for music.
