Deciding On Mid-Range Headset Options
I'm searching for an affordable, decent headset for universal use, from gaming and watching movies to speaking with friends. Unfortunately, I need some assistance on finding a headset that fits these criteria, and also advice on whether I should buy a headset with surround sound and/or a microphone.
Currently, there are a few headsets which I am interested in:
*(I have $7 in credit with NewEgg)
Corsair Vengeance 1500 (7.1 surround) - $69.99* + $6.99 Shipping
Rosewill rhts-8206 (5.1 surround) - $44.99* + $4.99 Shipping
Logitech G430 Lightweight (7.1 surround) - $59.99 + Free Express Shipping
In addition to these concerns, is it better to buy a separate microphone? Should I purchase a headset without surround sound? Do headphones usually go on sale, to a greater extent, during Black Friday/Cyber Monday/Boxing Day?
Any insight or alternatives would be greatly appreciated.
