For around 250, what is the best headset?
Im using the astro a40's and their really nice. Their $250, you should look into them.
i have the a50s for normal usage since i tend to get up alot and love the wireless, there like 270 at gamestop if you can stretch it a little, and i also have the a40 2013 edition and i love those as well, they are very light, and comfy to wear for a long gaming session, either way you go the mix amp will let you adjust your voice thru usb and game audio by optical seperate, so you dont have to worry about leaving the game to adjust volumes
