Looking for a new set of headphones since the ones i have at the moment don't cause my head to vibrate as much as i'd like them to.
Have my eye on these:

but cheapest i could find em was almost 200 quid.
Anyone reccomend a place to find a good set?

I have these:
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showprodu ... =SP-030-SL" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; (not the exact model) and they are very comfortable with a nice mic. Great for DVD's and more than enough for gaming. The vibration is soft if you turn the bass up other than that they are a good pair.
If I had the option again I'd get one with the amp
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showprodu ... =SC-000-SL" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Less than £60. Sennheiser are tops from what I hear but £200 is a bit steep.

So I'm a wee bit of a soundaphile, and after going through several expensive sets of headsets, I've found that you're far better off just buying the cheapest ones on the website. Buy a few at once, so as they inevitably break, always have some to replace them!

The ones I have suck, for some reason after a while the mic just got quieter every time I used it. I don't bother using it now because no one can hear me lol

Right so Bowsie, sorry, misunderstood there.
You should check out Thomann man, if you haven't already.
http://www.thomann.de/ie/dj_headphones.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; for a good place to start
Thomann is a German based music and audio equipment seller. They deliver to Ireland no bother, and they often have really good specials.
They also do their own brand called T-Bone, which are pretty decent if you are on a budget. Even bought one of their mics myself.
