Corsair - Virtuoso Pro Open Back Streaming Gaming Headset Carbon

You're welcome to DM and I can link you a spreadsheet I manage with plenty of headphones. Most gaming headsets are very overpriced for their sound quality but there are a few that are good value if you buy used or wait for a sale. The Corsair Virtuoso Pro or PC38X come to mind and both eq really well for music.  For standard headphones I'd take a look at the Sennheiser HD 560 or 599. The AKG K7 series are also good for gaming and fairly affordable second hand, not so much new. Then if you want a closed back option there's the DT 770 Pro X. It has excellent imaging and is built like a tank.  As far as a dac/amp goes, you need a DAC if you're hearing any noise or distortion in your sound, if it's not clear. You need an amp if you're headphones aren't getting a good amount louder than your preferred listening level. There's pretty cheap and good dongle options out there. 

I was in the same situation, and I pick a Corsair virtuoso pro. Very accurate sound for music and so spacial sound due his open back design. And still budget. I pick this model about his integrated mic If you don't want mic, I also own a Sennheiser hd560s open back. This two are mi recommendations.

Corsair HS80 max or virtuoso is my rec Don't get the pulse it has poor build quality and underwhelming battery life

Never buy a Razer headset. I have the Corsair Virtuoso and it’s been great for me. Wireless but an insane battery life, really good, detachable microphone. Fairly comfortable but not the most, sometimes have to adjust the ear pads.

I use the Corsair Virtuoso, you can unplug the mic and also connect it to WiFi and Bluetooth at the same time. Super recommend, although there are more pricey

+1 for the Virtuoso. It's a solid headset, great mic and has the benefit of using both wired and wireless channels simultaneously.

I’m very happy with my Corsair virtuoso. Solid build, good sound. I have younger kids who use and abuse it and it’s still trucking. Only thing I didn’t like is the headband and cups. The spray leather deteriorated, so I opted for valour fabric instead, very comfy

OW subreddit isn’t the best resource for this, YouTube and review sites are. I think, imo, $200 is a better budget for a high end headset, and even then you can get something that’s quality between $100-$200. My own anecdotal experience, my Corsair Virtuoso have been solid for the last 4 years. My brother recently got Astro A30s and he likes them but he paid the premium for them for their ability to easily switch between console and PC. Both headsets go on sale often, as they have been out for a while now, so I wouldn’t buy either at full price. HyperX, also, has some good headsets but I’d look at reviews of the specific headset you’re interested in.

I'm replacing my virtuouso with the nova. The v's cups are too small for my ears and the headband fatigues my skull, they are super heavy aswell. I did like the build quality and the detachable mic though. Battery has been dieing much quicker after a year but that could be my fault.

Really didn't like it. Quite dull sound imo + USB micro. Still love my Corsair Virtuoso
