Understandable, in that case the next best thing in my opinion is the HyperX CloudX, a wired headset that was made for and licensed by Xbox. Currently on sale for $40, the combination of the build-quality, comfort, audio, and mic, I don’t think you can do much better for the price. The aforementioned discount code and free shipping also applies to this headset, getting it down to $36 before sales tax. The discount code at checkout is “GAMING10” Link: https://hyperx.com/products/hyperx-cloud-xbox
Lol. Same with hypercloud. Why are people getting downvoted for reccommending gear they themselves have a positive experience with? Used mine for over 15 years. Has not skipped a beat. Comfy. I like the sound. Boom cones off if you don’t need it. It’s been fantastic bang for the buck.
Running Hypercloud- X headset here for years. (Like 15 years plus..still going)
I like the hyperx cloudx
HyperX CloudX. I’ve been using the same pair for 2+ years, so when it was on sale recently I bought a spare. Very comfortable, I’ve worn it frequently for 2-5 hours consecutively. Feels higher quality than the Turtle Beaches I used to have + sturdier material.
I've been rocking the lowest tier kyper x headset I could get for about 5 years now with no issues lol.
I have a pair of Logitech astros now with a mix amp. But before when I was on more of a budget I bought the hyper cloud x and I don’t have any complaints
Wish i still had my kingston hyperx, they sadly died, but are still my favourite headset I've ever had
I like Kingston HyperX ive had mine for years and the sound is really crisp - not sure the price now but mine was $130 AUD
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
