Right now I own an icemat siberia running on an onboard sound module. I think both are dying on me. What are some suggestions of what I should get? Let's try to make this less than $200

I swear, this is like the 5th thread with the SAME TITLE in the past 2 days.

Anyways, AD-700's + some cheapo creative one (like an Audigy).

AD-700 = 100ish (e-mazing)
Audigy = 25~30

Ya go with Westmn's suggestion. I am also planning on buying the 700's in a month due to the reviews I read. If you do not buy the 700's buy the hd 555. Both are roughly the same price, but you will get what you paid for out of these headsets.

I thought the Audigys sucked, I had an Audigy SE and it was terrible for gaming.

cheap alternative for cheaper people = AKG K81 DJ's. But if you have the cash, go with the ATH's (:

compared to the x-fi series the sound positioning is terrible, i mean it had sound positioning but it was more like which direction (left, right, behind) instead of a location of the source (which is what you want in games).
im still using the sound card in another computer and it works fine for my speakers but i wouldn't use it for my headset if i had the choice.
