Sennheiser Game One/Zero Questions

[LegitHuman]

1.Will it fit a Small-ish head?
2.What's their difference?
3.Any other good headset I should take a look at?

Would it work well with: (I'm worried that that the BASS will be bad)

-Asus Z87-A
-Asus Geforce GTX 650Ti
-Kingston 8GB DDR3 1600MHZ
-Cooler Master Thunder Mod 620Watts Power Supply
-Liteon IHAS-124 24X Sata Black DVDRW
-Intel Core I5-4670K (3.40GHZ) 6MB/4Cores/4Threads/4600HDGFX/22NM LGA1160 Processor


Thanks, LH

Greetings,

There are better "pro" headphone sets for 100-150 euros, that can kick ass to G4ME 1/0. I'm not audiophile pro, I just know that I heard 1/0 and than I've had these studio headphones for 90 euro on my head [they were in massive discount at apple store] M-Audio headphones, and it was like. Yeah, this is a good comparison, the M-Audio headphones were like wiping Your ass with silk, and G4ME 1/0 was like wiping Your ass with nettle.

And I'm no audiophile, I just...that was my impression,

Hope this helps.

P.S.: The M-Audio played splendidly with some random iPad/iPod or whatever it was connected to, so Xonar will do just fine.

And the M-Audio were Q40 I believe.

I didn't quite get what you said...what is the product's name? (If it's not that big of a brand then it's not available in our country). I'm also not sure if it has a microphone built in and I need that for youtube...(Can't be a separate mic or a clip-on mic).

 

[uplink-svk]

I'm sorry, M-Audio Q40 are professional studio monitors, they don't have microphone. They're used with separate microphone.

I'm just saying that the quality offered by M-Audio Q40 is heavily superior towards what Senn Game 1/0 offer, that's all. If You want the combo, You'll need to overpay it one way, or another.

I'm looking for something with a mic...and as of right now the sennheisers are my main choice but I'm worried about the bass...It doesn't have to be great quality but I'm looking forward to a decent and bare-able quality...

 

[uplink-svk]

That's why people do it that way, that they wear higher quality headphones directly on ears, and lower quality on neck with microphone. Or having external microphone near keyboard is also a solution.

I'm not aware of any high-quality headphones, with studio-monitors-quality specifications to this day. But if there are some, I'd go after them.

Look what I found, but they're slightly more expensive :\

Not available sadly and it's out of my budget...

 

[uplink-svk]

If I personally may suggest, You get the M-Audio Q40, and some external microphone, either the one that's gonna be stuck on Your chest, or one put near keyboard. You'll save a lot of cash and You're gonna have the best quality sound You can get.

Or try Your luck with those Senns.

^It will be out of my price range since most mics here are overpriced.

 

[uplink-svk]

Erm, mics cost like 3 euros?

Genius MIC-01C - about 2 euros.
Hama CS-461 - about 1,50 euros
Genius MIC-01A - around 3 euros

if You want normal quality:

Trust Starzz - 10 euros

and if You want some higher quality:

RODE SmartLav+ - about 50 euro

And that's about that. So headphones 90-100 euro + mic 3-50 euro. That's 150 euro. That's a lot less than You were about hit for Senn 1/0, which cost 250+ euro.

 

[LegitHuman]

^They're not available in my country..and the available mics either makes you sound like a person in the middle of war or the price is doubled.

 

[uplink-svk]

Can't You get it from e-bay, or amazon?

 

[LegitHuman]

Nope. The taxes are really high and sometimes items..."disappear".
