I use the Logitech G933 Artemis Spectrum. But I have to say that you can't wear the glasses normally under the headset without some unconformtable pressure on the head over ear. Better just put them a bit angled that the glasses rest loose. Then everything is fine.

Unfortunately a lot of headsets are uncomfortable, even more so if you have a big head/big ears or both. Do you have a either? It would exclude a lot of suggestions. Do you need a mic for anything? Voice commands? Online chat? I would put reliability way above discomfort. Head Phones are probably the number one peripheral prone to breakage.

Sony MW600 bluetooth here. I hate cables, the sound quality is very good, and almost 10h of use without charge.

Thank you guys for your answers. If possible, I would like a headsets with a mic and I don't want to spend more than 100€. This is the maximum. I don't have a big head it is rather thin. But I wear very often glasses. I like headphones because I can keep them for a long time but the quality of the sound is less good than a good headsets. So, I want to change. I have preferences for Hyper X Cloud or Q-Pad, I have got good feedback.

I'm on a major budget but I needed to switch to something that wasn't going to wake the kids while playing at decent levels like my Onkyo/Infinity setup would... eventually I settled on a decent cheap set of [url=https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=8323]Headphones[/url]($16) and the [url=http://www.amazon.com/Creative-Performance-Headphone-Integrated-Microphone/dp/B00EZT7RE4]SoundBlaster Omni[/url]($60) it has an integrated mic. I've never used it but I should hope if you're close enough to it, like under the Monitor on a Desktop setup, that it should do the trick... if not, there's a 3.5mm mic input jack. I usually buy Sennheisers but I'm broke. Lol... anyway the first couple of times I tried the headphones over the glasses and after a bit it felt like the glasses(3DV1) were crushing into my skull. Eventually I settled on putting the headphones on first and then setting the temple/earpiece on top of the cans, they're at this really weird angle downward towards my nose but they work and I quickly forget about them vs the skull crushing. I may look into a pair of on ear headphones, instead of over, and see if that helps with the crushing pressure that builds up with them over the glasses. Earbuds would be ideal but everything I have is lacking the bass that the over ear headphones deliver.

Yah, I got a wide head, my gaming headphones creak when I put them on. (G930/G35) Like mrorange55, my plastic cracked on one of them, I used JB Weld to fix it though. The ear cup cushions on my G35 began to disintegrate, so I have stretchy cloth covers on them now. I only use headphones if I'm chatting in-game.

I'm using Steelseries H Wireless - solid and comfortable, very good sound (the best for gaming i believe) using optical input and 2 battery supplies (no need to wait for recharge)

With Asus Strix 7.1 and both 3DV 1 and 2 glasses I can play max 1-2 hours without pain or discomfort. But with Sennheiser PX 100-ii there's no discomfort for any duration. 3DV 2 glasses are a little better than 1 but not comfortable with a headset. How come Nvidia never thought about the headset compatibility is a mystery to me.

I can not bear anything touching my head for long time, and specially wearing 3D glasses. I don't have Sony SBH70, but it is probably something I will have soon (or something similar). Bluetooth is a bit of pain at first, but once you get used to it is a good thing.

The problem with most headphones are that they only have one speaker per ear, so you'll only get poorly simulated surround sound. Not that it matters that much, in most games it will be perfectly acceptable

A decent pair of Sennheiser in-ear earphones is my only option - I have some sort of medical condition that prevents me from wearing any sort of over the head headphones for very long as pressure on my right ear causes physical pain & discomfort down the whole right side of my face, including the cheek bone and jaw. Depending on the headphones this may start within minutes or hours, sooner if I am doing any sort of physical activity, and the progression from mild discomfort to agonising pain only takes about a minute. The headphones built into the Oculus Rift are borderline ok since the mount keeps most of the pressure off my ears, though I have had to move the right headphone off my ear after a while in VR.
