I've always admired Turtle Beach's Stealth 700 range. The cheaper headsets, like the Turtle Beach Recon 70, don't quite hit the right price-to-value ratio for me, and though the Turtle Beach Sealth 500 seems like a solid offering, I've always liked the more heavy-duty feel of the pricier gaming headsets. They have thick cushioning around the ears, a close but comfortable fit, and have a striking sound quality to go along with it.
At this point, I've tested every generation of Stealth 700, and the latest is clearly the best, but the broader market has changed a lot recently, too. One of the biggest problems with buying a gaming headset right now is that it feels like there's a bit of a solved science to many price brackets. You got about $60? Go for the Corsair HS55 Stereo. Is your budget $200? The HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless is the obvious choice.
