razer blackshark v2x usb, fyi it's not that great i had to manually boost the mic volume coz out of the box it sucked, and it's very bassy out of the box you need to equilize it and feels tight and hurt your ears over time

Yeah, the Razer V2X kinda sucks in terms of software (no EQ settings at all), and the cable wrap starts peeling pretty quick.

Mira, probaris de comprar la app de dolby atmos, en la store de microsoft compre la licencia de por vida a $150 pesos argentinos, capaz ya le cambiaron el precio, o no  , no lo se. Y probaria un auri bueno y barato es el razer blackshark v2 x, es cableado, liviano y se escucha muy bien, incluso te trae el adaptador que se divide en audio y microfono. Otro no tengo asi que mas que eso no te puedo ayudar, ese auri esta entre los 75mil y 85mil pesos. También viene inalámbrico. Pero es mas caro.

Oh boy, I am going to get downvoted to **hell** for this, but... • [Razer BlackShark V2 X](https://a.co/d/3iVvLHa) Was recommended to be from a friend's brother that claimed to have played in PSL for R6. They recommended them to me, because I played R6, Hunt: Showdown, and a few other games that required good Audio Cue reactions with those friends. I've enjoyed them for the better part of the last 5 years. Excellent bass, the Dolby Sound Card, and 7.1 Channel Audio would be the selling points for these. As they have aged, I have noticed that there is "scratching" or "static" that occurs while you are turning the Volume Knob, but only **while** turning; the other thing is that one of the Ear Cup Pads is coming off, but it's been "coming off" for like a year and hasn't been an issue so, ymmv but for the price I'm not upset. Some people have told me, regarding my own headset, that it's too tight and is uncomfortable to use for more than one or two songs. I really enjoy this amount of pressure I guess, I'm willing to put this information out there and admit I might be the odd one out. At least you know up front. I will run it for 4+ hours at a time and my only complaint, personally, is that they can get pretty sweaty after a long session. $38 isn't a bad price, most Storefronts will have them priced at $50-$60 brand new. I just grabbed the first Amazon Link though, I'm sure you could shop around and find a better deal if you tried. Alternatively, if you're willing to spend a bit more coin, you could opt for a pair of [Philips SHP9500](https://a.co/d/gLDAGqa) open-back headphones. The sound profile is significantly better for your average audiophile, but in order to achieve certain clarity you do give up some of the Bass *thump*-iness; hence the open-back design. And these, I doubt will get me in trouble with the informed buyers of r/BIFL and the folks over at r/audiophile.
