Hello, i bought my sennheiser game zero 2 years ago and today the microphone broke and the warranty already expired so im looking for a similiar gaming headset.

I loved the game zero's for the following aspects:
- Comfortable XLL pads(long hours of gaming without hurting my ears or any sweat).
- Closed headphones( important cuz i live in a big area in the city where i constantly hear cars or planes so i need the closed option).
- It's portability since you can fold them and it even brings a case to carry them ( important cuz i travel weekly and that makes it easier).
- Good quality microphone.
- Is Bass Light(i can hear footsteps easily,plus i hate alot of bass headsets,if that makes senses)

So is there a similar headset out there these days? or a better one?or just i just re-buy the same? I'm a little out of date with the latest headsets and trends.

Other notes:
- Budget 300-400€.
- Also accept wirless options.

Thanks guys!

if only the mic is broken and the headphones still work fine you could just remove the mic and use a stick on mic like the modmic or moovmic. of course this would mean just not using the mic end of the cable and using the new mic cable.

if you're not afraid of a little DIY it would be possible to use the existing mic wire and solder on a jack that you can plug any replacement 3.5mm mic into .

they will be similar to the pc350se, hd555/hd595 headphones and pc363d headset as they are all based on eachother. the ath-ag1 headset (based on the a700x with a mic attached) would also be similar but it may be cheaper to just buy an a500x or a700x (not to be confused with ad500x and ad700x which are the open version) and put a mic on it.

Oh! I totally didn't think about that! Good ideia. I guess i will try the modmic and see if i like it,i also like that it comes with a case to making it easy to transport^^. And thanks for the options,maybe in the future i will replace it.
You were very helpfull!
