HEADSETS - What's yours?

Chromatix · 06-14-16, 06:06 PM

I happen to have a Razer Kraken headset, though I don't often use the microphone. It works well enough, though the USB cable is very sensitive to GSM interference.

I like headphone with gimbal suspension (AKG style). It's very comfortable as the structure is very flexible (twist and turn to follow your head shape).

The Razer Kraken shown above looks cool though, much like Bose Aviator set.

Blue yeti on a shockmount and suspension arm w/ pop filter and any sennheiser headphones laying around... buy I do more recording than VOIPing

Post pics! Some people wonder what gimbal suspension is or have never seen it!

Nothing special until you need to eliminate desk kicks and keyboard jiggles then a ahockmount is gold. (And if anyone ever buys a Blue product they are flipping huge. Getting a 3" mic in a 2.5" shockmount is not easy. Dont buy cheap boys n girls.)

What's the Capt doing up so late.

For anyone looking for this weeks.

Off-side now but any promotion is good promotion in the independent business.

Something like this....

Hopefully it works, I've never posted pics before, or else browse to http://www.akg.com/pro/p/k52

Pardon me, it's a headphone, not headset.

So the pads rotate in all axis?

Yup. Since the bridge is made of 2 pieces of steel wire joined at the shells center (earcup), it makes the structure very flexible. It allows the earcup to rest evenly with just enough pressure.

It might looks a bit odd and feels rather flimsy at first because of the flexibility, but comfort-wise it is very good.

Perhaps next time if you happen to visit a computer trade show and they have something similar on display, you should give it a try.

Greetings Wolfpack players,

It's now 20.02. Is there an update to this thread? I'm about to purchase Wolfpack via Steam and looking for the best headset available.

Cheers from Chicago region-
