You have a ton of headset reviews but no way or arranging them by (most popular) (highest review) ect. Anyways I just wanted to know which ones are the overall best. I noticed some have gold and editors choice. I dont want to read every single one. Just a list with links of the best would be great.
You soo needs a chart like toms hardware vga charts.

you'd be best served picking the "Editor's Choice" ones and researching them, visiting the mfgr's site and their forums (this is a good way to identify problem parts), and posting a thread here asking our educated people what they use for their own setups.
I just picked up these
Sennheiser EH250's - they're only headphones (no mic), but they sound great. plus, at $40, they're a steal.

Sennheiser is def. the best brand out there, but you do pay alot more, my ex has a sennheiser pro, costed him like 189 euro, but he doesnt wanna go for something else since he is from the dj busseniss.
personally i dont have that much money for a headset, so i dont go for sennheiser.
Couple of things you do need to know:
Make sure somehow that the earpart goes all the way over the ears, better for the hearing.
Colory headsets might look nice, but if the ear is to small dont do it.
Go to a music store, where the sell music equipment, they know what you need, mentions you use it for gaming with voice and for listening music.
Doesnt matter if you dont but if you will you need a good one.
I have an Gatt audio HP-7-M, its awesome.
If you have small ears a creative fatality might work out for ya:)

You need to say what you are going to be using your headphones for, to get the best advice? Gaming, music, Skype a combination.... or what? Just saying which ones are the best is too open a question? Give us a bit more info and I reckon you should get some suggestions. I would like to help out, as I have quite a few sets of headphones, but all are used for differing things - also need an idea of budget, as you can spend $$$$ on headphones.

Sennheiser is the way to go. You won't be disapointed. Do I sound like a fanboy ? Anyway, I don't care...

I dont want to complicate your decision any more than it already is, but you might want to look into just plain headsets and the buy a clip on mic.
