LowfatEnvelope 335 February 18, 2012 Share February 18, 2012 (edited) Headset, headphones, or speakers? Discuss! I personally prefer a headset, but i do a lot of voice chatting. I also like that i can listen to anything i want without being potentially embarrassed Edited February 20, 2012 by LowfatEnvelope ~L.F.E.~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vexx3 1,540 February 18, 2012 Share February 18, 2012 Well I use a Turtle Beach headset that my friend (sorta) bought me. I prefer my Sennheiser headphones though. So comfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aureity 3,055 February 18, 2012 Share February 18, 2012 I don't like headphones or sets, they're so uncomfy >.< But that's probably because I haven't found a good pair yet : A lil' Catherine <(^.^)> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight Shadrahk 159 February 18, 2012 Share February 18, 2012 I chose headset, because my favorite are those Apples earphones with a little mic on them. Did you ever think I get lonely? Did you ever think that I needed love? Did you ever think, stop thinking You're the only one that I'm thinking of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoop 8,384 February 19, 2012 Share February 19, 2012 Headphones all the way. My poison of choice would be my AKG k701 headphones (picture in the spoiler), they're the most comfortable pair of headphones I've ever worn in my life, and have absolutely fantastic sound. They're circumaural and open-backed, which makes them perfect for me. I also own a pair of Sennheiser HD580 headphones, which I use while traveling or when I have guests. They're good, but I much prefer the k701s. I also own a Little Dot Mk III headphone amplifier, as seen below. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gingerpotato 889 February 19, 2012 Share February 19, 2012 Turtle beach X11's for me. Fantastic sound quality and it allows me to play most videogames with the sound advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viscra Maelstrom 3,718 February 19, 2012 Share February 19, 2012 i much prefer speakers over headphones. the overall sound-quality and massive sound they have is absolutely beast. ...unfortunately, i happen to live in a small apartment, which means i have to change to headphones late at the evening, or turn down my subwoofer and volume so low it wouldn't give optimal enjoyment of my music at all. =/ i do need a new pair of speakers though. the ones i have makes the sound in the left speaker die from time to time, meaning that i have to unplug and plug in my speakers to fix it. annoying, it is, but goddammit is the sound good from them. i've used several headphones, but they've all died on me at one point or another in time... i think investing in a good pair of headphones is something i need to do in the future, badly. a decent sound system would be good, as well, but my room is super-tiny, meaning that i can't exactly fit a good sound system in this room that well. getting speakers that are not faulty like these ones would be something ideal to do, though, as well. whenever i get the money for THAT, though, i have no fucking idea. oh yeah, the headphones i use are a Deltaco-9. it's some local Swedish company, i believe, so don't be surprised if you don't recall the name of that brand. sound-quality is average, decent but that's it, decent bass, and it also has a mic!, which is the reason i got these headphones in the first place. some people should know how i got these headphones, if not, then ask. so there's my audio history for you.

Ethereal Cereal 84 February 19, 2012 Share February 19, 2012 I generally swap between the two, usually when it gets late and everyone's gone to bed. I pride myself in being able to make most any set of speakers or headphones sound decent with a little tweaking of my audio player's onboard equalizer. I lack the funds to do anything substantial with my computer's sound system at the moment, but when I do, I plan on going all out. For now, I'm satisfied with my Audio Technica headphones and my Logitech speaker setup. Even fools are thought wise if they keep silent, and discerning if they hold their tongues.

Smokin'HotRarity 182 February 19, 2012 Share February 19, 2012 my dollar store mics keep electrocuting my ear and are starting to become uncormfortable, especially with no volume control. microsoft brand is not much better. S.V.R. Stop. Violent. Recreation, I know it's tuff but let's all try to stop playing violent videogames, violent TV, violent thinking, and just violence in general.

joeyh3 153 February 20, 2012 Share February 20, 2012 My main device is a pair of Motorola S305 bluetooth headphones. They do have a microphone in them, but I never actually use it - I just got them for the convenience of being hands free. They're very comfortable and the sound quality is very nice, but the need to recharge them every few days does get annoying. For gaming, I use a Microsoft Lifechat LX-3000 headset. It's much better for gaming than my Motorola headphones, but it can be uncomfortable to wear after a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RagingTwilight 101 February 20, 2012 Share February 20, 2012 I realized some time ago that earbuds play an integral role in my life. I wear them many places, including the gym and even while driving, as well as when I'm doing homework or studying, cooking, etc. Come to think of it, I probably spend at least 60% of my day with earbuds on. I gotta have my music, man. D: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RagingTwilight 101 February 20, 2012 Share February 20, 2012 You're going to get tinnitus. Not really. While I do wear earbuds on a lot, I've trained myself to listen at a lower volume. My computer's sound with earbuds on is usually no higher than 40% loudness, and when I listen to music on my phone it's at the lowest setting possible.

PhonyBrony 275 February 20, 2012 Share February 20, 2012 I could rage about the vague term "audio device" because I really want a MIDI keyboard and a MIDI slider controller. I use regular $15 earbuds. Signature by the one and only Flare! Eugepae! Being ignored since May 2010 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
