Logitech - G PRO X Wired

So I’ve had these OG g pros not x for 5 years. Got them when they first came out in 2019 for 100$. Well I really liked them. Prime day deals had them 69$. Ordered them up and the audio is worse? What’s the deal here? I play bf2042 a lot. My original g pros using the dac and dts enabled in windows spatial settings sounded fantastic. I could hear people from all directions fine. Well this new dac for the pro X has it only through g hub. It sounds muffled. The foot steps are literally non existent and all I hear is explosions and gun fire across the map but before had no problem. Fiddled with the eq got it to sound slightly better but it’s not even in the realm of the g pro using the windows setting for dts. I paid for a license years back as I didn’t realize they made just a g pro non x. Wondered for years why I had no surround setting in g hub. Any fix before I return these things? Not trying to spend an arm and leg and feel I just wasted $$ because despite the condition of the 5 year old g pros they work fine and sound great still I just figured it was a good time to buy a backup on sale and was torn on the cloud iii vs these but had good luck with the previous set. G hub was uninstalled and reinstalled the latest version before plugging them in. Also the blue voice…. In 5 years are very competitive gaming. Never once heard someone say I sound weird. Or bad. Or anything. Now using the blue voice everyone says I sound weird and completely different.

I actually think I’m gonna try the cloud iii and return whichever one sounds worse. I see complaints on those but they’re a newer set for the same price. On my OG g pros I can use atmos and all the spatial settings while retaining ghub eq and mic settings. They just don’t have the blue voice which I really don’t care for anyway now after trying it. And no surround option through ghub. I figured they’d be better or atleast the same through g hub but not this LOL in bf2042 people can litterally run on concrete inside a building right next to me and I can’t hear them. That’s an absolute deal breaker for me cause I could hear people across the room on the g pro non x with dts enabled through spatial setting in windows. It’s like they forced you to use ghub with the pro x to have dts and it’s a downgrade now. WHY LOL

Logitech g pro x wired a 150 is amazing

If you're not worried about quality and want convenience then I would probably just go for a wireless gaming headset. Audeze Maxwell is one I am seeing a lot, but I've heard mixed opinions, as you typically will with gaming headsets. The only headset similar to that that I've tried is the Logitech G Pro X 2. Hated them. After hours of failing to get the audio to sound better than my $100 headset from 5 years ago, I returned them. Wired is always going to be better quality.

I am not professional and but I had quite a lot headsets specifically for gaming and the best ones I ever had and have rn are Logitech G Pro X 2 Lightspeed but since they are not in your price range unless you can find them on discount series 1 of G Pro X is very good replacement

For anyone looking this up in the future, I had the G Pro X and they broke so I went to go buy them again (I really liked these headphones and didn't feel like researching new ones), saw that the G Pro X SE was cheaper and when I bought them, 30% off. I figured if they were weird or I just didn't like them then I'd just return them. So far I cannot tell a difference between the two pairs, they're the same size, and came with everything I needed to set them up. The sound and the microphone are the same so I would buy the SE as it's cheaper.

https://a.co/d/8QzjMLE These are more than adequate. Light and comfy too.

Im still rocking mine with just a new pair of earpads from central sound.co and the original hyper Cloud 2 USB card, sounds amazing, even after try hyper x Cloud 3 S Wireless and Logitech g pro X wired But they are old, and i dont think they are worth tbh, some DT 770 could be better

The best headset I ever used was the Logitech G Pro wired headset. Detachable mic, easy 3.5mm jack, detachable wire, (splitter in case you wanna use it for pc) Sound quality is good. I need to get another one cos the one I have has held up for over 5 years, but now I play on a TV so what I think I’ll do is get a pair IEM earphones and if I really wanna, layer the headset over that to block out noise. That way I get the comfortable-ness of not constantly wearing a headset but allows me the option of the in-game advantage of noise canceling when layered.

I'm an audiophile/AV hoarder, but for gaming, I've been happy with my wired Logitech G Pro. Got a good deal on them. No complaints after a few months of daily use.

I use a separate mic & headphones, but I have the HyperX Quadcast 2 as my mic and KZ ZSN Pro X as my in-ears. I've used the Logitech G Pro X for a while before swapping to this system, however the headphones got heavy on my head after very long gaming sessions, but they were comfy! I go back to them if I need wireless :). I also have a pair of Astro A10s I use for my PS5. They are super lightweight and the audio is good, and the mic isn't terrible.
