Hello everyone!
So I am going to get a new gaming headset. I'm going to use it for Gaming, and video editing. I am not an audiophile, and I don't plan on making any music. My budget is up to $70, but I'd like to make it a tad lower than that if possible... I'm eying the Steelseries Siberia v2 because it has some of the best reviews I've seen: http://www.amazon.com/SteelSeries-Siberia-Full-Size-Gaming-Headset/dp/B005I8INDA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1376868656&sr=8-1&keywords=steelseries+v2
Long-last use for me is vital, comfort is second-most important to me. Thanks!
Personally i'm happy with my Logitech's G35 it lasted me for a year & a half .. it's more comfortable than the Steelseries also it has really nice 7.1 surround sound with a comfortable ear cups.

Headphones that last 1.5 years are bad.
7.1 sound is a gimmick that hurts audio quality.
I wouldn't recommend Siberia because they are closed.
When you wear headphones for many hours straight, you want open ones.
The pair I use are the Rosewill RHTS-8206 Headphones. Great sound, great price GREAT FEATURES!
