I need a new headphones got any recommendations?

@artgarcrunkle: Ya you got a point it this whole thing is giving me a headache because everyone is telling me different stuff and it is just making me change my mind every hour. Your right I should just get what I want Thanks for the Help.

If it's headphones mainly for gaming then I can't recommend the Astro A40s enough. They're very comfortable, mic is crisp, 5.1 with mix amp makes you hear everything happening around you and also I love plugging in my MP3 player while playing too.  The astros are very good at distinguishing sounds, obviously because they're meant for you to know where bullets are flying. For usual music listen they kinda sound slightly muffled though.  I can't put my finger on why that is to be honest XD 
 
For music listening I would probably recommend some others. Thing is with headphones they always seem to be tuned (more bass etc) for a purpose and I always feel like I'm hearing through the manufacturers filter. I haven't listened to many headphones over the £250 price tag so maybe there's a point where that doesn't become noticeable.  Will and Norm (Tested.com) always seem amazed by those incredibly expensive sennheiser at the top range, so maybe that's true.
 
 The reasons I went for the A40s is because I wanted the whole package. Personally I would get studio monitors if I was an audiophile as they're the best way to listen to music. I wanted headphones for the same reason you did and the Astro A40s delivered on that perfectly.

@X19: Ya I would love to get one of those with the saints row colors but I will be damned if I am going to get a $200 on a headset. But on the other hand I am looking at those $120 ones by Razer so it is not that far of a jump.

@Daiphyer: Good false dichotomy troll, big ups.

Nice descriptive challenge. Nice attitude, too.

@X19: Is the mixamp really worth it? I am just using this for just my PC and that's it.

What is wrong with "Gaming" headsets? I own a Turtle Beach x31 and they are awesome. I don't feel like I am not hearing stuff that maybe I can hear in a pair of these. I mean look at that thing, 1,500$. Why is that so expensive?!

Nothing, but for the price you can get headphones that sound a lot better.

And have you tried any headphones? They don't have to be over a grand to sound better. Sounds like you haven't.

Gaming headphones suck because there headsets not headphones. Witch is what I want but everyone in this post keeps telling me to get like $175 headphones witch is not want I want in truth I don't give a shit about sound as long as it is not shit I am happy I just want some thing mid range that's comfy with a mic.

Then don't bother with anything over 30 dollars. Seriously if you don't care about sound quality just buy shitty 20 headphones and a 10 dollar mike and be done with it.

But the thing with that is that if you ware them for more that 20min they fucking suck. Also those I can tell they sound bad super bad I don't want some 30 buck headset I want some thing nice. But it seems like if I care about comfort most then everyone tell me get some piece of shit I don't want a piece of shit I just want some thing mid range.

I had a pair of Sennheiser 448s -- it might've just been me, but they sounded incredibly tinny and the bass was virtually nonexistent. The headband broke on one side a few months ago, and I bought a pair of Panasonic HTF600s. My expectations were horribly low given how cheap they were, but some people on the internet told me they had nice bass, and I needed a replacement pair. I'm actually really pleased with them, and the bass is much more powerful than the Sennheisers; if you have bad ears, chances are you don't really need to pick out the ultra-technical high notes anyway. I have a $25 mic that works well enough.

Altec Lansing has been so good to me I literally cannot recommend them enough.
