Many years ago the computers were just some big and unpractical machines that were capable of just some simple operations and they were used just for scientific purposes. But with time they began to develop more and more, and they expanded into the population sector as well. Today everyone used a computer, and most of the people have a personal computer. The computers these days are featuring some advanced technologies and they are capable of complex operations. From the moment the home users began to use computers, they also wanted to have some sound for their computer activities. So there were made some computer speakers. Along with the development of the computers, the speakers also developed a lot. Today you can find all sort of speakers, in different sizes and shapes, and with different powers and sound quality. There are speakers for your room, for your bookshelf, for your walls, for your garden and some even for your shower.

With all these types of speakers you can enjoy some music, a movie, a game or whatever you like, and the sound will be spread through the room. So you will be able to hear it, but also your neighbors and the persons from other rooms or the house. But what can you do if you want to enjoy your favorite music, at a loud volume, without disturbing the people around you? The answer is simple: use some headphones. These are small devices that will fit in or on your ear, and they will give about the same quality and power of the sound, but only to the listener. Most of the headphones today are featuring some noise canceling technologies, so you will listen only to the sound from the speakers, and not anything else from the environment. Most of the people were using the headphones when they wanted to communicate with other people over the internet. They just plugged the headphones in, so that nobody else will listen to the conversation. But beside the headphones to hear the sound, they also had to use a separate microphone to talk with the other person. So that’s people thought of a method to hear and speak at the same time, using the same device. So this is how the headsets appeared.

As you can see in the image, a headset looks just like a pair of headphones, but it also has an attached microphone.  The microphone is small, and made to get close to your mouth. It can also be rotated up or down, for those times when you are not talking and you just want to hear the sound from the headphones. Now let’s talk about some of the best computer speaker headsets on the market.

We’ll begin with the Sennheiser PC 350 Gaming headset.

As you can see it looks really good, and it also sounds amazing. Like the name says, this headset is made specially for gamers. In a video game, especially in the shooter games, it is really important to hear everything, every move and gun shot made by the opponent. Just a fraction of a second can make the difference between the winner and the loser, so that’s why it is really important to have the best sound quality. Using this headset, not only that you will hear all the moves and shots, but you will literally feel like you are in the game. The headphones are specially designed to fit comfortably on your ears, even when you wear them for a long period of time. They are also made to eliminate the ambient noise, so you will be able to focus just on the game. Like any headset this also has a microphone that is pretty large meaning that it is also very good, and you will easily be able to talk with your game partners.



But it is not necessary to use this speakers just in the video games. You can use them for any other activity on the computer, and they will behave very good. They will give a great music sound, with no distortion even at high volumes. The ratings for this headset are very good, giving it 4 or even 5 stars out of 5. The reviews are also very good. The people who used this headset are very pleased with it’s design, it’s sound quality, it’s bass and noise canceling. Some of the negative parts found by the users are the big price (250 dollars) and the volume wheel which does not perform so good. But no product is perfect, and after all this is a great headset device, which both looks and sounds amazing. And if you search for the best offer, you can find it much more cheaper than the official price. Enjoy it!

Another great headset is the Logitech G 35 7.1

As you can see this also looks very good and will easily fit on your ears. The headband is swappable so you can adjust the headset to the size of your head, for more comfort. This is the first headset from Logitech that offers 7.1 surround sound. More and more games are featuring this characteristic, so these speakers will be perfect when combined with a game of this type. So it means that these headphones will give you a great surround sound, and you will have just the sensations as when you are using a 7.1 system. You will be able to hear the enemy exactly where it is, for example behind you, or in the left rear side.

Both the headphones and microphone have noise canceling technologies, so in the headphones you will hear just the sound from the computer, and not anything else and the microphone will give just the sound of your voice and reduce the background noise.



Another cool feature for this headset are the voice morphing buttons. Each one is customizable and you will be able to set a different voice sound for each button. For example you can make your voice sound just like a character from World of Warcraft, or like  a mutant, a squirrel, a troll, an alien and others. So this way you can disguise your voice in a game, but you can also sound really funny.  The headset also features on-ear audio controls that allow you to control the volume, to mute the microphone and adjust the surround sound settings. The microphone is also adjustable so you can place it close to your mouth, or fold it when you don’t use it. The speakers are connected with the computer through an USB port, so this means the sound will remain digital all they way, and will not lose quality. The microphone can be muted both when you press the mute button, or when you move it into the upright position. The price for this great headset is somewhere around 120 dollars, which is pretty good. The ratings are very good, and they go from 3.5 up to 5 stars out of 5. The reviews are also good, and the users were very pleased with this headset. Enjoy it!
