    Dunno anything about the headsets you mention, but I have www.amazon.com/Force-HPA2-Surround-Gaming-Headset/dp/B001BS4YAM/ref=sr_1_1 . I would definitely recommend these if you can find them. The sounds is great, really deep and clean sounds and bass (you can control the front, center, surround and sub drivers individually) and the positional sound is awesome. They are slightly heavier than most headsets I've tried, but not by much, they are still very comfortable. If you do decide to buy these, make sure you get the usb powered version so you don't have to deal with an ac cord (most versions you find will be usb powered, the ac version is an older model). If a site carries both, the usb version will probably be labeled HPA2PC. Hope this helps.

    Consume. Be silent. Die.

    I do not recommend the Steelseries Siberia.  I had the version 1.  Its padding wore out quickly because they used a soft foam.  New it lasts 4 hours before becoming uncomfortable which is relatively good but not great.  Its also flimsy, the thin plastic that tilts the earmuffs broke.
