What Gaming Headset do you use? I am looking to upgrade.

My headset is the Turtle Beach EarForce X1. They are good, but I am looking for great, without a break the bank pricetag. I have shopped around but I am looking for experiences.

Re: What Gaming Headset do you use? I am looking to upgrade.

I recently got a backup headset. The Creative Labs Fatality HS1000, it was great for the price on eBay but I don't think it worth the retail price in the store. It is different from the Turtle Beach having a built in USB connection and only using 1 USB port.

The X1, uses 1 or 2 depending on your audio source. USB provides power for the amplifier, and the sound comes in via mic/audio cables, which I have used with both USB audio source and directly to the audio on the motherboard.

I am a fan of fuzzy ear pieces rather than leatherette ones.

This is the one I am currently reviewing for Plantronics.  Should have it done within a few days:

I cant agree more the Fatality USB rocks for the price you cant ask for better.
