Headset Question

[Berchta]

Hi all, I've been listening to EVE-Radio for about a week now. love it, you guys are fantastic.

I have a question though.

Is there such a thing as a headset that has superb sound quality for music and/or gaming, mostly music? The mic quality isn't the biggest deal, but I want the 'phones themselves to sound great. I want to invest in a good headset, because speakers are out of the question. I'd just annoy everyone in my house with my constant loud music. :D

Thanks guys
Berchta

that's what I use. Sound is supreme, the closed ear cancels out almost any unwanted background noise in the house, and the mic is pretty damn good too. The also double as earmuffs when it gets cold.

My only gripe is that they're not as rugged as the should be. A good drop and you'll be super-gluing something, but as long as you take a bit of care, awesome.

Product AHS515 is not available from the UK Amazon site. And I'm not paying $130 for a headset!!

Any UK DJs recommend a decent headset as my cheapie PC World one is starting to get on my wick?

UPDATE - Tesco are doing the AHS515 for £15! I have ordered one for this week!
