Razer Carcharias Gaming Headset

This is my second Carcharias headset. I used to be a fairly hardcore gamer, playing multiple MMOs, FPSs, and racing games until all hours of the night. The one gaming periphial I seemed to destroy over and over was my headsets. I was going through 3-4 headsets a year. I was discussing my issues with a fellow gamer at a big electronics retailer, and he strongly recommended the Carcharias. I honestly thought he was just trying to pad his paycheck, but said store had a good return policy, so I bought it and took it home to try it. I got seven years out of that first Carcharias headset. I loved everything about it, it was comfortable, my fellow players could hear me clearly through the mic, the sound was fantastic compared to most others I'd tried, and most importantly, it was DURABLE. After 7 years, one of the wires finally broke in it's cord, and I lost sound in one ear. I replaced that first Razer Carcharias with a Razer Kraken. While the Kraken sounded much better, it was so tight, heavy, and uncomfortable, that after just a few weeks, I replaced it with my second Carcharias.
