Sennheiser - PC 360 G4ME

Sennheiser PC 360. bought it in 2012, still going strong. Look for a professional gaming headset, it will be high quality and comfortable for long meetings.

560s is possibly the upgrade you are looking for. You can attach different cable and microphone. I went Game Zero - HyperX Cloud 2 - Game One - 560s. Zero regrets.

They're effectively the old Sennheiser Gaming One with some tweaks, which were, indeed, great headphones. No idea why Sennheiser stopped making them in favour handing most of the branding to drop and going about doing something else. I've got the GSP 600, PC38X and a H6 Pro - all these are similar and they're all great.

I am in a similar boat as OP but budget isn't a concern.. I just rearranged my home office, painted and updated everything in there, just refreshing everything.. in that I decided to try and declutter by getting rid of my Rode boom arm with AKG P220 condenser mic, Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro 250 Ohm, and Scarlett Solo Gen 4 that powers them both. Before that I had a Schitt Modi > Loki > Magni and a cheap Behringer Q USB interface for the mic. I decluttered that setup by going with the Scarlett Solo. I have always been a proponent of studio equipment. The only "gaming" headset I ever trusted and used was the ASUS/Sennheiser partnership when they made the Xense PC360 headset, I had to mod the headset by drilling holes in the closed back to get more bass, but after that they sounded insanely good. When I got rid of the PC360 due to no more warranty and just kept falling apart, I probably bought 15 gaming headsets, and literally nothing compared to the Sennheiser setup. That's when I transitioned to studio equipment. That being said, I have used DT990s since 2017. Now, wanting to declutter again, I am looking for wireless headsets. Watched a ton of reviews, looked at price to performance, and don't want any RGB at all. Battery life was one of the big winners in my selection since I work from home during the day, and game at night. Due to having a wireless HyperX mouse, that can go 2 weeks without charging, I believe their claim of 120 hour battery life on their headset, so I made the purchase. I, unfortunately, went with the HyperX Cloud III Wireless. They arrived today and all I can think of is "return them". The music quality, listening to Spotify or Pandora, is actually REALLY good. But gaming sounds are horrific in comparison; very muddy, everything blends together, nothing stands out, etc.. The mic is horrendous. I expected some quality loss going from a condenser mic to this, but not this much. It is very clear that reviewers edited the voice track in post processing; even the ones that claim they did not. That being said, the MG20 you mentioned look great and appear to be a solid option, until the battery life.. how is it at all possible a company such as M&D boasts about 22 hour battery life. In real world use that probably translates to 10-15 hours or so. I don't want to have to charge every day. I did look at the Maxwells as well, my only concern is that are listed as "Frequently Returned" on Amazon. Do you have personal experience with any of the many issues people report with the Maxwells, I am curious if firmware updates have fixed them.

I have those as well. I use them mainly for gaming and compared them to DT900 Pro X, DT770 Pro X and Sennheiser PC360s and I disagree that they are not as good for gaming. I think they have a kind of subtleness and precision that makes it pretty easy to locate other players, for example in BF6. How they fare in other, more competitive games, I can’t say. But they are incredibly comfortable, far more than Beyers, especially due to their weight. And sound is great. I did tune the bass up a bit because I like hip hop. But that’s all.

I'm still a fan of the old Sennheiser models for a no-frills wired option that will last a long time: PC360, 37x, 38x. For wireless, I usually go Logitech out of familiarity, but the Steelseries and HyperX are good too. Some people are recommending a separate mic, but nothing beats the convenience of an actual headset. You could get an attachable boom mic, but those can be annoying as well.

PC360, PC370 and 38 owner here too They’re not lifetime but should do 5-8 years which is a long time for any gaming peripheral. The micro switch that mutes the mic when raising it tends to fail. Also some rubbery coatings especially on the DROP model wear and fade quite a bit with time.

I have an Sennheiser PC360 for almost 10 years now, changed the ear pads 3 times but it's still going strong. Though I doubt that the newer Sennheiser headsets are anywhere near this quality.

I'm still using my PC360s from 2013, but the volume dial is getting crackely. Sometimes even break out my Audio Technica AD700s I used when playing MW1/2.

Curious your thoughts on the comparison between the two. I’m a big fan of sennheiser open backs, and have been running the Game Ones since 2017, but the cable kept breaking and I wanted something wireless. Have recently tried the Maxwells out, but not blown away by them yet, could be an eq issue dunno.
