I got [this](https://amzn.eu/d/9kAjZ8g) one from turtle beach, but u can only use it with the cable. The mic and audio r very good. It’s also on sale rn.

They are not durable at all, I bought the recon 200 gen 2s and they stopped letting chat audio come through after about a year of having them.

I got some recon 200 amplified, and I love them. What would you recommend?

You can get something decent for a lot less than 250. I got a Turtle Beach recon 200 off amazon for £40 and it works great.

Turtle beach has some cheap wired headsets that work well if you’re on a tight budget. I think the one I had was a recon.

I second the Recon recommendation. I've had mine for almost 3 years now and paid $12 for it, and it still works pretty much the way it did when I bought it. My only complaints are that the earpiece well isn't deep enough to not touch my ear, and the flexible microphone rod occasionally will drift away from my mouth. Aside from that, it's hard to beat for the price.

I have the PS5 Turtlebeach headset. Got it when I got my ps5. Haven’t had an issue and the sound quality has been great.
