Best Microphone/Headset for Gaming?

What are some good microphone quality with headset for gaming?

I'm using 'Logitech G230', I can have them on forever, the sound is great and no one ever complains about microphone going bazonkers (except for when I use the built-in "disable mic", then it gives of an alien-esque sound for the others but I never use that function).

Forget gaming for audio. There is nothing special for gaming. No special requirement nor need. The question soley comes down to budget and how audiophile you are.

In general I would not touch the usual gaming stuff or companies that produce hardware. Look for dedicated audio manufacturer of you look for quality sound. They are not necessarily more expensive.

I use the Plantronics Rig 500E purely for gaming and i love them.

Just get a good stereo headset. "Gaming headset" is just marketing male cow excrement.

Hello,


In my opinion, I would recommend you Corsair Void USB RGB 7.1 Dolby.

Have been though many budget headsets by logitech, turtle beach, razer etc over the years they always seem to break (usually at the earcup hinge), and the audio quality for music was not that good.

Once I got a budget studio headset and a separate mic, everything sounded much better including music. Not to mention, there are much more headphones available so that will widen your choices to match your preference much better.

Personally I am using a Samson SR850 and a Zalman ZM-Mic1, but if you are closed-back person then check out the Edifier H840[www.amazon.com] or the ATH-M20x[www.amazon.com] and something like this lapel mic[www.amazon.com] you will have something that will sound much better than any headset under $100. Or get a near-podcast quality mic like the Samson Go mic[www.amazon.com], know a few folks who use that to record basic guitar tracks - should be a bit better than any headset mic.

Thanks for the suggestion, I have that headset, I wanna replace my Corsair Void, I get complains that my mic sounds like a fish bowl, when I tested, it sounded bad. But it could be a factory error.

What’s better, USB or Aux cable Mics? For Voice Quality?

Do I also need a audio interface? I plan on just buying a Mic only.

I'd go with a pair of real headphones and a dedicated mic.

The SuperLux HD681's are around $35 on Amazon and sound amazing.
The Blue Snowball is also a great budget mic for $50.

Sony MDR-7506.

Would I need a Audio Interface for the Blue Snowball, so I don’t have background noises?

The Blue Snowball or XLR Setup?

Since it is cxonvenient, I've had decent performance with Logitech G633. Barring a bit of softrware SNAFU, they have done well enough. Another option would be the Corsair Void Pro as a wireless option.
