These! Any day of the week. Have incredible bass for their size! Games sound great.

I have a Bose Wave Music System III and like it a lot. The sound is amazing, it comes with warranty (Bose is good about repair and/or refund if there is a problem).

I'm using the sound blaster z and it sounds great. I don't know of a cheaper card. Check newegg.com and read peoples reviews.

I own a Bose noise canceling headset similar to the set in question (ATH-ANC27). Bose is by far the best. For the money and size the ATH-ANC23 (in the ear) that I bought has surprising abilities. I was very impressed.

They are awesome for gaming. The only drawback is that you have to buy the attachable mic if you game online. I don't have the mic so I can't speak to that piece. Good luck.

If you want to take the astro mix amp + pc headset route, i'd recommend the Senn pc360. That seems to be agreed on as the best combo for quality surround sound. Pricey though. Honestly, save money and get the u320's. You'll be happy with the sound.

Bose is superior but it depends on where you are using Philips Fidelio. I use it in my office and it sounds great, and the price is very reasonable. I would recommend it.

Newegg is ignoring the release date and selling them. There are 5 reviews up there if you wish to read them. I bought a pair and I'm pretty happy with them but the 7.1 drivers aren't available yet (probably the reason for the delay). They just install as USB Stereo headset at the moment. Bluetooth sounds pretty good on my phone (but still bluetooth). The PS3 ones cut out a lot over bluetooth attached to my Surface but these ones are better (although I still use the USB because it's better than bluetooth).

If you're a gamer that plays for hours I would go with the trittons 720 surround sound it's $149 but it's definitely worth it.

I love Bose. I would say Electrohome is not quite the same quality as Bose, but you're also paying less than half the price for it.

I went back and forth, listening at distance, close up, volume low, up high. The only difference I saw was "Bluetooth" which was attractive to me, and the price was a bit higher (which didn't matter) I wanted the Bose quality sound. I got it. Deep, rich sound. Beautiful. Answer: No.

I have never owned a Bose, so can't really respond to that. However, I can tell you the sound is very good for the price and I would recommend it. I use mine in my bedroom or living room.

Buying The Bose system you asked about is a major mistake. There's much better performing systems that cost much less. It isn't a computer so it won't allow many options you may like. They want you to believe that the sound is better than anything else. You can duplicate the sound by increasing base on other systems. Bose won't allow you to tamper with the sound.

The best headphone for gaming is hands down the $135 AD700/AD700x. By far. Nothing else comes close. Not even $400+ headphones. I'd honestly be surprised if a $1000k headset could match it.I read that the $200 q701 was a close 2nd. So I tried it. If I didn't know better I would have said the q701 was a $60 headset, and the ad700 was a $1000 in comparison.

I highly suggest these. Logitech G230 Stereo Gaming HeadsetThe TekNmotion ones don't leave enough space for the ears horizontally. The pads are comfortable but small. In the ones I mentioned above the pads are much larger, breath easier and are just as light if not more so. The sound quality is nearly the same. The TekNmotion ones have slightly more bass but not enough to matter in the long run.

Yes, I have Beats headphones and it works fine for both game sound and chat.

I'm also going to buy a pair for gaming but I will use a headphone amp to drive them. I'm going with a valve amp, (Little Dot mark II, or Bravo Audio V3 that has an equalizer) but any sort of headphone/portable amp should do the trick. A lot of people mention that these headphones only "come to live" with an headphone amp.
