September 19, 200718 yr Who has these? Home. http://www.medusa-canada.com/medusa-51-home-edition-p-857.html Progamer http://www.medusa-usa.com/medusa-51-progamer-edition-v2-p-896.html Which one is better?
September 19, 200718 yr I have an older style of the home ones. In my opinion, the amplifier is definitely worth it. My amp broke and I'm yet to RMA it, and if it weren't for my speakers having a headphone jack to amplify them, it just wouldn't be loud enough. Plus, then they can be used for many other things like DVD players or your Xbox 360.
September 20, 200718 yr Author I think then, that I want a pair. The Razer set I have stinks. The part I'm worried about is returning them if they too hurt my ears.
September 20, 200718 yr I've never had a problem. Not once have they hurt my ears and I wear glasses and have a big head
September 20, 200718 yr Author I've never had a problem. Not once have they hurt my ears and I wear glasses and have a big head Cool, that's what I wanted to know. Thanks.
September 21, 200718 yr Author Well I just bought 'em, $165. I sure hope they are worth it. I was torn between the Home and the Pro-gamer, I went with the home. Wish me luck. I'll let you know how they turn out when I get to try them.
September 25, 200718 yr Author So I went to work to handle some business, then I went to BestBuy to get my new Blue G5, then to Conn's to get my Extreme 3D Pro joystick. So far it's a good moring dropped a c-note+, got out of the house drove around. I get home and I see a FedEx sticker on the door. It says that they dropped by at 11:50 to give me my package, well I wasn't home hence the sticker. When I look at my watch, it's 11:58. So I didn't get my headphones. Well I tell the wife and she says we'll just go pick them up after 18:00, as per the instructions on the door sticker. I then get called to work, twice, for 13:00 and 23:00, excellent communication skills between the four guys responsible for this stuff, who sit in the same room!! But I digress. I have to leave at 23:00 so I rush home to spend my last few hours on earth with my wife, leaving the headphones 1/4 of a mile from where I was, because it wasn't after 18:00, like the sticker said. I fight traffic to get home then realise that I need stuff before I leave to go to work. So I'm back on the road, frantic, wanting to be home, but needing to be on the road. Wifey says let's just go get the headphones, I love this woman. If we didn't get the headphones they would be sent back to Canadia in five days. I'm standing in line painfully consious of the time I'm wasting. I start to read the ticket left on the door, I see the "will be returned to Canadia in 5 days," then I see "shipper requested indirect signature." I'm standing line I get weak at the knees. I could have signed the thing, left it on my door and they would have left the package there this morning. I am furious at myself for wasting all this precious time. Well I now have the headphones I take them out of the box, with only a few hours left, they are smaller than I thought. Well I read the manual, pull out the rats nest of wires that came with, while wearing the headphone, lol. I didn't get to even plug the things in. Oh well, they'll be there wating for me when I get home. Bummer. I'm done.
September 25, 200718 yr Tilgado, I went to Bestbuy on Johnston and bought a set called Gamers Headphones. They Work Great and are only 37 dollars. Ihave been using them for like a week and i love them.
September 25, 200718 yr Author Tilgado, I went to Bestbuy on Johnston and bought a set called Gamers Headphones. They Work Great and are only 37 dollars. Ihave been using them for like a week and i love them. 5.1 surround? I have seen some virtual surround headphones there. I go there all the time. I didn't want to use usb head phones, cause what's the use of the spensive audio card when you use usb headphones. And I also didn't want to use more system resources on the usb audio vs. discrete audio. If you see the Razer 5.1 surround set there run the other way they are the suxor. Well I have my medusa's so I will give em a shot. For that price if they don't work I'll run over them and be happy with the descision. lol
September 25, 200718 yr LOL NIce, I dont know if they are 5.1 surround or not. The dont hook into the usb thought. I hook into the Mic, and headphone plug-in. Check em out next time your in there, but the Medusa's should be better i imagine. They cost alot more and you usually get what you pay for.

Yeah well I have my fingers crossed, this wouldn't be the first time I spent too much on a pair of headphones that blew. Razer, pfllllllt. If you want to try the Razer set give me a time and place, I will do a drive by headphoning.
