Yeah. I still haven’t changed my old ones. I see no point having 2 different sets. Rather have one set good enough for music and games/chat. ---

> [@krnmikel](#): > > i came here to say how bad the platronics are. and here vexir is commenting how good they are lol. also i was going to say how bad they are for music and again vexir beat me to it. these headphones are no where near using for musical purposes. sure if you want it for gaming than i guess its fine. but over all these headphones are bad. also vexir if you think these headphones are good than you really need to go try out other ones. such as bose triports, sennheiser headphones, and sony headphones. I’ve tried them, I really see no difference. The only difference is when you buy the $500 headphones with noise cancelling and all that. ---

get the logitech ones made for PS2, you can use it with COMP also. It has like a 10ft. cord so you can play from way back ---

If you are a handy person, you can make a heaset like i did. I took a industrial earprotector, empty’ed the insides, divided every side into 3 parts and put in 3 speakers each side… making it a surround headphone. I wanted to have a surround headset, but couldn’t find one for a long time, When i found one, it appeared to be a bad choice. I didn’t hear any surround in it… so i made my own and it works like a charm… with gr8 surround sound. You caould also attach a mic to it if needed. Only bad things are that it isn’t very small (industrial earprotectors tend to be rather big), and that you need to be a bit handy…
