My ASUS Echelon headset just snapped. It wasn't a particularly good headset, but it did the job. I need to replace the headset on a budget of £50 (+/- £10). I know that there's nothing in that budget that will blow my mind in terms of sound quality. I just need some recommendations for a headset that it good for heavy metal and FPS gaming. I would prefer to have a microphone.
I was a bit desperate so I went ahead and bought a pair of Corsair Vengeance 1400. Sometimes it is good to go cheap, but I don't mind paying that little bit more for quality. Picked them up for near £40, which is reasonable. If I was going to spend more money I would pick up a good pair of studio headphones.
Someone recommended the Corsair 1400. It's actually quite robust. I've never had a cheap headset like it. Definitely recommend if you can find it for ~£50
