If you want to stick with Corsair as you say, the Corsair Virtuoso Max Wireless for XBox is amazing. But, it \*\*is\*\* twice the price of the Official XBox Headset. The Official XBox headset is the king of the $100 bracket because no one else is making a headset at that price with Atmos AND simultaneous multi-device AND bluetooth-game mixing. So you can hear the game and your tablet/phone at the same time. Other headsets in this range will have one or two of these but not all 3. Corsair has better build quality, a much better mic, some ANC and good sound isolation... but again, it's not really fair to compare that to a $100 headset.

I had a Corsair Virtuoso MAX for a while but the headband broke and I went back to my Pro X2 and maaaan what a downgrade in audio quality. The Pro X2 is comfy but the audio kinda sucks.

Did you mess arounds with EQs? Im about to receive mine and I'm unsure if they're good to go for gaming as soon as I get them. Heard so many good things about them I had to buy them because I was so sick of using my Corsair Virtuoso. I could barely hear footsteps in fps games.

So ON ear headphones press on the shell of the ear. OVER ear headphones rest against the skull around the ear. If you get a large-cupped over ear model, it will only interact with your glasses by pressing the frame right in front of the ear - but that spot can be less sensitive than the shell of the ear getting sandwiched. I see the headphones you mention, the logitech g432, they should be over ear BUT the inner space of the ear cup looks small - might be too small for your ears. Also if your skull is larger you want to have a bit less clamp force. I wear some corsair virtuoso - they are wireless convertible, and the ear cups are fully round. So I can put them on and shift them about until the rounded back edge is just behind the shell of my ear. Also the ear cups swivel nicely, and I twist them a bit so they are tighter behind the ear and looser at the front, where they touch my glasses arm.

I use the Corsair Virtuoso, you can unplug the mic and also connect it to WiFi and Bluetooth at the same time. Super recommend, although there are more pricey
