Mh751. Comfort is chef's kiss, excellent mic and sound was pretty neutral. Check it out
Cloud 2 are technically made by a sound company as well. They are just rebadged Takstar Pro 80s with an added mic. That’s what makes them so good. Coolermaster did the same thing with the mh751 (rebadged Takstar Pro 82) Not saying they’re better than the H3x, those are insane for $20
What I've learnt from gaming headsets is, whatever extra they're doing, volume knob and mic, the loss is on the sound quality. MH751 is around $70 when I got it. The comfort is incredibly and so is the mic. The sound isn't bad but it isn't going to wow you.
My vote is against the PC38x. It's the most overhyped, overpriced garbage. The clamp is crazy, mic is good, sound is sightly above average, has known QC issues which did mine in. If sound quality isn't a big deal, I'd suggest mh751. It's cheap should be $70 or less. Good mic. Incredibly comfortable. The sound quality isn't bad, it just isn't going to wow you.
My personal opinion is, it's not worth at that price. * the clamp is insane but this is subjective. Took me a year to loosen it, and I still get bad days on the rare occasion. It's not uncomfortable but it's not comfortable either. * It's not good for music at all. For gaming, it's nothing extraordinary sound wise but it's good for footsteps. Maybe it's the Sennheiser sound signature but nothing stands out. * One of the benefits of gaming headset is volume knob. This Sennheiser build has a common QC issue with that across different headsets, that stopped mine from working. 1 year plus issue started, problematic till about year 2 and died. * Each pair of pads tore within one year because it's gum not stitched and my glasses probably poked it and made an opening which snapped it open. In contrast, my Beyerdynamic is the same price and does everything way better except slightly less imaging on footsteps. There's also the MH751 which is the most comfortable headset I've owned and excellent mic for half the price. If you don't need a mic. Go for studio headphones. It's WAY better.
Pro82 juga problemnya sama 🤣 gw punya 2-2nya, yang Pro82 malah lebih sering kena bongkar karena masalah2 kayak kabel putus didalem, engsel bagian swivel patah (kinda crazy karena udah punya dari Pro82 dari 2018-2019). Iya port jack yang diheadphone dia ada locking mechanism sendiri (ngide banget lmaoo). Aga sayang karena kalo emang ngomongin suara sama comfort ini udah bagus buat range harga segini, meskipun suaranya tipikal V-shaped tapi vocalnya masih oke menurutku (comparable lah sama M50X/M40X secara vocal). Kalo dari headset gaming, pernah punya Cloud 2 juga (ini aslinya barang dari Takstar juga tapi yang Pro80), lebih nyaman Pro82/MH751 jauh, suara prefer di Pro82. Sama dulu pernah punya SS Arctis 1 Wireless sama Arctis 5 (versi Dota), tutup mata aja sih prefer Pro82/MH751 Kalo dari headphone lain, prefer Pro82/MH751 daripada Audio Technica M40X kalo cuman buat maen game aja karena M40X kureng nyaman juga, harus di modif ganti earpads dulu waktu gw masih punya. >kulit sintetiknya ngelupas Selama masih pake kulit sintetik bakal ngelupas kok, headphone apapun sih
Almost everything you say is correct... don't ask a streamer for audio advice (settings), just like asking for advice on headphones. They don't know anything about audio. They're gamers, not audiophiles, they don't know the technicalities, they don't even understand the response curve of their own headphones. The only thing I would say you're wrong about is your recommendations. Commercial brands may be good in terms of comfort and maybe even style, but when it comes to real quality sound, they're not the best, especially for competitive games like Warzone, Apex, CSGO. In these cases, the best headphones will always be wired, not wireless. Depending on the environment, where you know where the precise footsteps of up to three people are coming from at once (one person above you, one below you, and one to your side), more precise drivers and configurations are required. True professional audio headphones, not gaming headphones. These brands/models are good: Audio-Technica ATH-GDL3 beyerdynamic MMX 330 PRO Sennheiser HD560S beyerdynamic DT 900 Pro X Audio-Technica ATH-R70x beyerdynamic TYGR 300 R Cooler Master Diadema Gamer MH751
These are the best options for competitive audio. You can research the ones I'm going to recommend one by one and decide which one is best, also according to your budget. These aren't selling you a brand, they're selling you real audio. Those who will respond best are audiophiles.

I liked my MH751, but the build quality didn't impress me. In the five years I had them, I went through three cables, and then the right channel started cutting out. People also started picking up my headphone audio even when I didn't have the mic plugged in. That said, they did last five years, which I guess isn't bad for the price, but stepping up to a desktop mic and proper studio headphones has been an incredible experience.
ngl your HyperX lasting a decade is wild. i ran into the same problem with leatherette peeling on my old pair. for $120 and closed back with metal build, check the [Cooler Master MH751](https://featherab.com/shopit?search_keywords=Cooler+Master+MH751) - sounds way cleaner than those M20xs and has that solid feel you want. also look at the [Philips SHP9500](https://featherab.com/shopit?search_keywords=Philips+SHP9500) if you're open to open back, but for closed the [HyperX Cloud Alpha](https://featherab.com/shopit?search_keywords=HyperX+Cloud+Alpha) keeps your familiar build with better drivers. the M20xs are really just budget studio monitors, not gaming tuned.
Yup, the mic is phenomenal - my friend has MH751 with Apple Dongle (yup, it supports microphone input), the sound's amazing. Oh, and they're lightweight and so comfortable, still didn't find a pair that would feel better. Well, HE-1 felt nicer, but they don't count ;\_\_;
