Cloud III S Wireless Gaming Headset

I have your non typical answer: I had HD 800S, Mangrid Tea Pros, and other great audio equipment with a standalone mic. I actually sold all the high tier audio gear and am on a Cloud III S and actually love it. Gaming audio gear was always a meme and I am pleasantly surprised by how good the audio is for a wireless headset. I play counterstrike and it's great being able to run into the kitchen to grab a drink and know when the next round is starting, doing dishes while I wait for queue to pop, etc.

Dual mode connectivity is fairly common for higher-end gaming headsets, but not too much on budget models. The new HyperX [Cloud III S Wireless](https://hyperx.com/products/hyperx-cloud-iii-s-wireless-gaming-headset) is pretty good (definitely better than a Cloud Flight), but it's a bit past your budget. There's also the SteelSeries [Arctis Nova 5 Wireless](https://steelseries.com/gaming-headsets/arctis-nova-5) (as well as the better [Arctis Nova Pro Wireless](https://steelseries.com/gaming-headsets/arctis-nova-pro), but that's way past your budget).

I have the pro x2 lightspeed and used them for 2 or 3 years. They were ok. They feel pretty good, but the build quality isnt great. They have the swivel part and a screw would fall out of mine every few weeks. Also the G sticker fell off after about 2 years. Mic, yeah isnt good. So after having paid $250 and using them for 2 or 3 years I just went and bought super x cloud 3 wireless s Even out of the box with no sound adjustment, the sound is way better! I found a good preset someone made and use that. The ear cups made me sweat in these so I ordered wicked cushions cooling gel ones. I couldn't be happier with my choice to switch. The cloud 3 wireless is cheaper in price and better in sound.

Didn't find the Sony Inzone H9 II comfortable at all. I feel like they're designed for tiny ears. Also there was a lot of air pressure with ANC on that I didn't notice with my much cheaper headsets from another brand (even older MX4 didn't have this much pressure iirc). The worst of all was the sound. It was horrible compared to the half-priced Cloud 3s. If clouds had ANC and better earpads I would keep them for everything else but looks like the perfect headset doesn't exist...

Cloud 3S is crap build quality and will 100% melt your ears. The sound is good but you will be disappointed in most gaming headphones coming from the Momentum 4s. Though maybe you can change the earcups and make it better? It is quite comfy and sounds good Btw, since you don’t need a mic, I’m genuinely surprised that Momentum 4 doesn’t work for you. Other than that I don’t really have much advice for you since you already have my favourite headphones I

HyperX Cloud 3s and I wouldn’t think twice.

HyperX Cloud 3 s wireless. They’re on sale on Amazon right not for like $120 I think. Astro A50x. People will shit on these but I always end up coming back. Feels pretty open, so not as immersive. Audeze Maxwell. if you like heavy things on your head. I don’t think the directional audio in my experience is as good with these than the other two. Nova Pro Elite. If you want to throw $600 at your problem and get sound a little worse than the Maxwells
