I bought a G35 headset... and it's kind of rubbish
1. I get an 'eeeeeeeee' sound on the right speaker when the microphone is activated. 2. I can't record stereomix with these on. 3. It's supposed to have Surround Sound, but it sounds more like you put stereo in bathroom, for example, the 'back'-speakers sound exactly like normal stereo-speakers. What is this ♥♥♥♥. I am disappoint.

Yeah, this is why you do some research before you buy. http://www.itreviews.co.uk/hardware/h1952.htm

you won't find stereo mix in 99% of the products you buy
especially a USB headset

Re: I bought a G35 headset... and it's kind of rubbish
Stereo mix has nothing to do with what headset you have and I don't know why it would interfere with your using it. Maybe if it was a USB headset stereo mix won't record sound going through the headset because it's a different sound card but otherwise no.

I already did, but really, surround sound isn't working at all.

Re: I bought a G35 headset... and it's kind of rubbish
I grabbed a pair of http://www.sennheiser.com/sennheiser/ho ... nes_004974 ages ago , almost 3 years ago. I got someone to redo the cord so that it had a higher end and longer cord. For the abuse its been though i am supprized it still works, i got some tape on the headband part due to droping it so many times. and the ear foam stuff has started to tear and rip. but thats all from just the use its been though.

I'm using a piece of ♥♥♥♥ $10 mic I ordered from Amazon and it works amazingly.
Why would you need anything more?

Same goes for a certain range of headphones, like the $1,400 Sennheiser HD800s. Sure, the heads of the industries say they're worth the money, but nobody needs $1400 headphones.

Re: I bought a G35 headset... and it's kind of rubbish
Pfft. You people actually spend money in those "cutting edge" headphones that you see in computer shops? That's just wasting cash. If you want good sound quality, you need to get the real stuff. And by real stuf I mean vietnam-war tank pilot helmets. Bought one for $50 on an antique shop, and it's the freakin' best headset I've ever had. Seriously. Plus, it looks really cool.
