Hyper x. Are pretty decent, had mine for around 3 years, no sign of wear and tear, still crispy clean audio, they are wired. The included mic was ok, but I disconnected it as I have a blue yeti. Would recommend

Wireless all the way. Used HyperX with cable but man. Wireless is keeping around 120 hours and i can stand up and use it everywhere. When you go to toilet with chatting with friends its game changer! 😄

I bought a HyperX wired and it felt pretty quality to me, is there something specific you were looking for? Personally idk that ive ever found something better than the Klipsch earbuds ive had for over a decade. The Razer BlackShark V3 is ridiculously light but has worked purrfectly with a fully wireless setup, no crosstalk. You might have read the posts in the Wiki community bookmark but if not there's 2 on headsets that might help.

That's why i mentioned the Razer Blackshark, but I couldve been clearer. I have my mouse, headset, keyboard, and controller all wireless connected to my pc. Granted they are all using the original dongles and some care is observed with plugging them too close together, they never interfere with each other or lag even after long sessions of use. Assuming your intention of "quality" is how cheaply made something feels, the BlackShark actually feels less quality than the HyperX as the BS is so light it feels like a toy. Where HyperX actually had weight to the headset and was about half the price. My advice would be just ask your favorite streamer what they use and buy that, there's already a bunch of great recommendations by others here.

Yeah and Ive had comments from folk in game about my mic too, they thought I had a pro setup but was just these headphones. They’re really big so they don’t squish my glasses into my head either haha
