    Has any one tried something like this. I have a set of roccat kave's and their awesome but not really what I wanted. They are comfortable but in the end earphone really would suite me better. I find I use my head phones more as speakers unless the others are sleeping. Anyone tried earphones? How do they perform?

    Default headphones for all day wearing

    hi
    any body have a recommendation for headphones that I can wear most of the working day?
    see, I'm a programmer and get irritated by noise so I put the headphones on and play something
    to help me concentrate
    I currently use a sennheiser PC 30, but it is more a skype'ing etc headset

    Nice article. Can we also have a review of good in ear headphones as an alternative for those big bulky ones? I just want an all rounder that can work with my phone as well

    Anybody own SteelSeries 4H headset? I am looking at getting as set in a couple months time, but am not sure if they are of good value or not. I am just looking for a budget-ish headset for gaming that has good sound, and a mic. I am currently using a cheap R40 Astrum headset for gaming, they work really well for such a cheap price, but the won't last that long. If you have a better suggestion than the SteelSeries 4H, please suggest something under my R450 budget, and if possible, that I can order from rampage-gaming.co.za. Thanks

    I use the following to cutout the idiots around me when I code

    A) focus + concentration - normal setup
    B) normal Philips stereo headset - mood for music
    C) earplugs - mood for near silence

    I feel your pain dude!
    I was in the same boat.
    Im also a developer and we used to have our own office which was nice, we were like 8 people.
    Now we moved to head office and just the IT department is 50 + people, so the noise gets crazy!

    I invested in a pair of 7.1 Razer Megalodon's about a week after the move.
    They are freaking awesome! They keep out all of the noise, sometimes i don't hear my phone ring and im right next to it.
    They are super comfy,i can wear them for 6 hours straight with no issues and they don't force the frame of my glasses into my
    skull.
    Plus the sound is awesome! but they are a bit pricey though.
    But totally worth it!
