New headphone/headset

Quote:

-NOT Bose. All I've heard about them has been that they are really expensive and really cheaply made, with really shitty durability and sound quality. Unless they've somehow magically gone from crap to king, I do NOT want ANYTHING Bose.

Just want to say, that while I wouldn't buy Bose for myself, I did get a set as a graduation present a little over a year ago, and they're pretty great. I nearly shat myself the first time I played through that first training level in Call of Duty when you're crawling under the barbed wire. I think the reason why they get a lot of flak from the internets is because you've got a bunch of audiophiles that want music to sound exactly how it's "supposed to sound" which Bose doesn't really care about. They're about making stuff sound really nice to the average person. I think my favorite use of my Bose headphones is when I'm watching a movie on the computer. I have a really hard time distinguishing human voices from background noise, so I can miss a lot of quieter lines in movies. While wearing those, I can hear practically everything.

All that said, I don't think Bose sells anything in your price range, nor would I necessarily recommend them, since for the price they're at, you can probably get something a bit better.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
