Sennheiser - PC 360 G4ME

Sennheiser PC38X are probably the closest you'll get. I think they have the same drivers as the HD560 or something similar. I have the original version of those, the PC 360 G4ME, and they're honestly not far off my Beyerdynamic DT770. Both have a very flat frequency response. Very accurate sound as well, and the mic is still the best I've ever tried on a headset. I've seen people compare the PC 360 G4ME to the HD600 even.

They do have gaming headsets, and both driver and mic quality are among the best in the business. Both their PC 360 and the successor, the Game One, have been praised for their mic quality. Being Sennheiser, their drivers are obviously also quality, and the PC 360 I have with the velour pads, is the most comfortable headset I've ever worn. I genuinely can hardly tell I'm wearing it after 8 hours +.

What do you mean not for gaming? You are aware Sennheiser have gaming headsets, and that they're fairly well regarded? The GSP 370 for example is probably one of the best wireless gaming headsets around. I prefer the PC360/Game one/PC38X myself for comfort, but they're wired. The GSP500 is a fairly good, slightly cheaper, alternative.

What kind of work? Are you just talking Zoom, etc, or like media editing? Personally, I can't stand headphones for more than a few minutes, so I also need a speaker of some sort. A great 2.1 or 2.0 bookshelf speaker system, or even a smaller sound bar, is more than sufficient for those times when you can't be arsed to wear your audio output. You don't need to consider *these specific models*, but they serve as examples of what you might want to look for within that product segment * **Speakers**: I am running my ancient Logitech Z2200 2.1 system until it dies - when that happens, I've been looking at something akin to the 2.0 AudioEngine A5. A subwoofer is nice, but tends to be heard more by the rest of the house than me standing right next to it. * **Wired headphones:** Do you need to be able to hear people in proximity to you? While the active noise canceling/amplification of some smarter headphones is nice, the tech can also be spendy. Open-back headphones like the Sennheizer PC360 are a great passive headset alternative for being able to hear people around you - excellent flip up mic with a satisfying *click*, and a very long cable. If you want to passively block out everything around you, HyperX Cloud Alpha or similar aren't noise-cancelling, but are well-insulated and have tremendous bass response, with a good-enough mic. Since you already have a gaming headset, and most of those are closed-back, I'm guessing the Cloud Alpha would be a redundant choice; but being able to swap between closed and open back headphones is a nice-to-have. * **Wireless headphones:** I don't have as much experience in this segment, but I will say that you should consider if the model you're looking at has a smartphone app. I got the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7 on sale, and while they are comfortable and sound clear, their iOS app doesn't support *that particular model*, and it came with a volume limit enabled by default that I couldn't disable until I found a PC to install their software; that said, while the setup was annoying, I've never needed to use the software since. Their little USB-C dongle is nice, too for switching between multiple devices (my biggest annoyance with Bluetooth).
