    I use the 5H v2's and I think they're just wonderful and I don't care if the don't look hip, I prefer function over form.

    If a design works, don't change it! I buy my headphones (well would byu if I needed one) according to sound quality rather than what are built for gaming and look cool... In someone else's opinion.

    Seriously mousepad manufacturers shouldn't try to make stuff that includes something other than plastic/metal.

    Is there anyway you can compare this one to a sennheiser PC160 when it comes to sound quality etc ? I'm currently using the 2nd and having thought about buying this one on release ...

    I didn't read the article (yet) but weren't the Icemat headphones called 'Siberia' as well ?


    I have a feeling the answer to my question is in the article... come on Ghys, time to read it :D

    EDIT:

    from the Icemat page :

    Unless its the kind of "put in a bag and sit on them" breakage, you may find that a more expensive/better quality headset may last longer.

    Shame about these headphones (neckphones?) I think I may end up buying a separate mic, so I can continue to use the headphones I like (which changes quite often). Well done for getting a review out so soon after Crysis though!:clap:

    "the first circumaural neckband headset created for professional gaming" - Erm... I think they are telling porkies there. My Logitech Precision [circumaural neckband] headphones have been around for years. As for whether they are 'professional' or not is subjective, but suffice to say that my ears don't hurt after long gaming sessions.

    Point of Order: should we be reviewing items like this without a price? Couldn't we wait until they are available (or at least have an RRP)?

    You can't beat a pair of decent Sony Headphones, I regret braking mine, the wire alone was £30. :)
