    Looking for a headset that is comfortable with glasses.

    Right now I'm using the Steelseries Siberia V2s and while I enjoy the headset, it really hurts after more than an hour when I have to wear my glasses.

    It doesn't need to be a 'gaming' headset. It can be a pair of headphones with a stand alone mic + sound card. All I ask is that it's purchasable on newegg, as I plan to buy other things using the site and I'd prefer all in one transaction.

    Price isn't all that big of a deal, though I also don't want to go broke over this.

    Thanks~

    I personally use Plantronics .Audio 90 headphones, AKA GAMECOM 1. They are light and comfortable with decent sound. The mic also is of decent quality. You could probably pick up a pair for around $50.

    I use the Plantronics GameCome 380, and find them quite comfortable with glasses. Before that i had some Sennheiser PC 151 (on-ear design), and while they had great sound, they also hurt after less than one hour. With the Plantronics 380 i don't have that problem anymore.
    Why do something simple, when there is a complicated way?

    Can confirm this. Using the Plantronics 380 for over a year now, the comfort level is really high, even while wearing glasses.

    I had issues with the comfort on Siberia v2 with glasses as well.

    Using Sennheiser PC360 right now - not perfect comfort, but far and away the least uncomfortable headset I've tried. Without glasses, they are very comfortable though.
    Really - anything with velour pads (which the GameCom linked above also has) and an over-ear (rather than on-ear) design without clamping should be the same, roughly.

    my cheap little logitech headset H390(approx $35) is very comfortable with my glasses, the big headsets do hurt with glasses for me and this one has been great.
