    The Crest mic was actually surprisingly pretty good, and the sound quality coming out of the headphones themselves before they just kind of... died... seemed undistorted and generally OK as well. I know that wasn't a proper test, but for a $10 pair of headphones, I'm kind of impressed! Those seemed at least serviceable.
    And that Asena mic is, dare I say, quite good! Again, not bad for what I can only assume was just about the cheapest gaming headset around.

They're also pretty cheap. I'm sure James knows what it is lol
    Also I know the point is to blow them up but I do enjoy seeing how long some last against each other when used with a "slightly" less extreme amp setup. But at the end of the day, I just like to see those poor little meow meows pop n smoke.
