Shouldn't a normal jack plug be better because of the latency? :unsure:

Exactly mate. I suggest you to buy analog headsets. Usb heads have cheap D/A converters,so, you have a bit more of latency

why? Do you know any differences between usb and jack?

Plus, most of the headsets having USB plug forcing you to use their built-in sound card so, you can't take advantage of the sound card installed on your computer.

I recommend not to get usb headphoes it modify the sound and you can't use them to listen music from all sources.
Sennheiser is a good choice (perfect sound) but the price is high.
I have for years an older version (HD 525) and never let me down .. the sound is still great and are built to last.

Actually, I have ordered the Roccat Kave already and I'm expecting to receive them today or tomorrow.
I'll post a short review once I try them.


Thank you all for your recommendations.

Ok, I received the headset yesterday and I "tested" today for a couple of hours on various applications.

I'm a little annoyed with two things the weight and the design, especially from the equal weight distribution, it's not equal at all!! All the weight is focused on the center pad, which after a couple of hours wearing them I fell like I'm having a hole in the center of my head. I'm thinking to rip off the pads on the headband and replace it with some foam pillow or smth.

Soundwise, this headset produces very good sound, even at higher volume level the sound doesn't lose its clarity. The bass is very good, at least for my demands, other may find not as "booming" as they like it. But I tested on a various heavy bass rap and DnB songs and, I'm satisfied with the subwoofer's perfomance.

Concerning the surround sound, even though I haven't test this thouroughly, (just watched some 5.1 surround sound tests on YT), I was able to localize every sound quite easlily. Although, on css I wasn't able to enjoy that advantage. :( I don't know maybe I need to change some configurations...
