Yao.

My Siberia V2 is dying, and I need a new one. Price for these two is good, but don't want to spend much more. I really liked my Siberia V2, but never used a Carcharias. Can't choose! Help me.

Also, what are the advantages/disadvantages of the a Siberia V2 USB? More eXpensive (~25 euro more) .. but is it worth it?

Siberia is better built and less open of the two, I've played with both.

@ #2:

Hmmm... I used to have a desk mic couple years ago but no-one could actually hear me. I also don't fancy taping a cheap shirt mic to a new headphone! I have a wireless AKG but it's not that comfortable and annoying at lan (batteries, extra power plug) although it sounds great.

Considering that, it's either: buy a professional microphone with tripod and a headphone (expensive), or a "normal" headset like a new siberia V2 (cheaper)?

Right?

far better quality than Siberia V2s and should be more durable (and cheaper)
