Don't know what to get.

The hs1 I can buy here in Sweden so returning would not be a problem. The a700 I have to get from amazone so returning will be hard there.

Returning comes to mind then I read that the ad700 is a lose fit, don't know about the a700 but I go with the a700 because I want a close fit there I can move my head around with out them falling of.

The hs1 use an usb sound card but for the a700 I have a x-fi xtreme gamer.

I do not paln to get an amp for the a700.

I dont listen to flac or even music anymore (girl friend take allot of time) so this is only for those beloved moments then Im allowed to game. So thees are only for gaming.

If used for gaming then I def wouldn't be getting any usb headset, especially since you have a sound card. USB uses it's onboard sound chip.

Usb headsets can sometimes have a major advantage with selecting where you want audio to go in games and voice its a big help in games that are fucking up lately with audio choices, or locking you only into what is seen on the MB..

I had a Usb headset cheap thing once, it was apparently 5.1 worked very well with no fuss. I have a logitech pro one arriving soon as well so shall see how that stands up to the cheaper one used before.
