you're looking at $150 MSRP for a good one for headphones such as my HD555's.

at least that's what I found during the very short amount of time I was in the market for one.

luckily i have a home stereo with a headphone jack so i use that in conjunction with my computer.

I suggest Grados. You can get a pair for $60 and they will sound incredible. It also depends on your musical taste. It you like a bright sound, get the sennheisers, If you prefer warmth to your music, get a pair of Grados. I have the 225 Grados

i'll agree with that. The Sennheisers are really bright, and that's not exactly my favorite sound, but it works when it comes to the music i listen to on the computer and the whole playing counterstrike thing. To each his own.

Now, when you little videogame-playing kids are through...

Good headphone amps don't require a lot of power. A good single-ended 6BM8 or EL84 amp is really all you need, around 1.5 to 2 wpc...

I have the older version of these, which are a pain in the butt, but never the less still some good listening.

HAH!
countershizt is for little kids. quake actually requires AIM - all the bullets\projectiles\weapons shoot in the same spot and require you to actually aim them instead of them flinging all over the **** place and 1 hit kills by a stray bullet thru a box.

the game is alot faster and you have to have mad accuracy - instead of camping skillz.

Of course I disagree. Stray bullet kills are lux. 1ce j00 r teh 1337 pwnz0r in counterstrike

Send me a copy of Quake3. I'll play with you. I mean own you.

 

[GCAdidas13 10+ year member]

you don't tell me i won't own you.

i've been playing FPS's forever. I think I might be competent, if Quake3 has anywhere near the same feel as either UT2k3, UT2k4, or CS 1.5 or 1.6.

Original Unreal Tournament anyone? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

No but really give me a copy.

is quake3 one of the unpiratable games? like is there no way around that whole store-bought thing?

dude dont gimme that crap. i used to play doom2 at lanparties where we had to daisy chain all the PC's togehter because a hub\router was so **** expensive.
then i played duke nukem 3d on kalis ladder (wich is now cases ladder) [http://www.igl.net/duke/]

that was years ago tho. back when i still had my 486\133 on a 28.8k modem.

so dont go commin up on me like you know your stuff and i dont mang //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

and q3 is nothing like any of those games. similar to Ut2k3 - but the feel of the controlls are way different - i could never get used to how jittery ut2k3 aimed.

and way back when, the Q3 server crashed (hacked maybe?) and they lost all the serial codes. i could prolly find you a good one tho - seeing as how like 90% of the people who used to play it have all left to bigger, newer, and better games. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

yes. burn me a copy, send to my address. i'll give to you tonight //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif with serial.

then we can quake it up.

we'll see what happens.
