I need dh members opinions on this! New Mouse and New Headphones

Hi guys, Ive been out for a long time and im back to ask this question!

It time for me to change my mouse and headphones. At the moment I got a Logitech G5 and some Icemat Siberia headphones. MY headphone just broke and Im tired of the G5.

Im current looking over the Razer DeathAdder. Is this a Good choice for a new mouse?

like I said, my siberia's just broke. Im looking over the Senheiser Hd555 to replace em. Is this a good choice also?

Please write your opinions about those 2 items!

Thx alot

The DeathAdder is an excellent mouse, as well is the Habu.

I haven't heard the HD555s myself but read they've received high marks from everyone.

I've heard good things about the Adder, it just looks to small for me. But I know what you mean about the G5, i really hated mine.


Sennheiser's are good cans but IMO the wires are very poor. I've had three sets need replacement wires, and they aren't cheap. So if you do decide to get them, do yourself a favour and be gentle on them.

I heard the same thing but I will be gentle on them. Ive used my Icemat in Lan Parties over canada and usa. I think its been 6month or HARD LABOR for them. But now I dont go to Lan's anymore and I need some good headphones to play CSS on my free times. So I guess they will be just perfect for that. Im also looking for a great quality sound to listen music with, so thats why I ended up to get those hd555.

Thx guys for the infos, I appreciate it!

Have a good day

I know you already bought them, but just out of curiosity, why'd you not get a 5.1 headset if it's for CS:S you wanted them?

I had a pair of Zalman 5.1 and I used them 1 week and sold em. Ive use stereo headphones since I started playing fps. I got a Icemat usb soundcard that convert into 7.1. I got a friend who has that soundcard and those Sennheiser hd55 and he said its awesome.

But like I said, I play CSS in my free times and I also need em to listen to music and movies
