>Yo por ejemplo juegos donde necesito oir los pasos, juegos como Counter-Strike, Pubg o Arena Breakout ¿Que me sugieren y que debo mirar? Un auricular que de sonido decentemente. >Y si, lo pregunto con mala leche porque es mas facil armar una PC que elegir auriculares. Es más fácil de lo que imaginas elegir auriculares, es como cualquier otro producto: Huirle a marcas generalistas que gastan todo en marketing, y comprarle a marcas que se dedican hace décadas a especificamente eso. >¿Es coaa mia o el audio está tan roto en los juegos que si no tenes auriculares de estudio musical no podes oir un carajo? Los auriculares gamers no tienen ni medios ni agudos, que justamente son las frecuencias de "presencia", o sea, donde se escuchan cosas como tiros o pasos. Por eso no escuchas nada, tienen solo graves, y de los malos que saturan y te tapan el resto del ruido. Olvidate de los inalámbricos, son más caros, peor calidad de sonido, además totalmente inútil algo inalámbrico para usar sentado, es como comprar un powerbank para atornillarlo a una mesa de tu casa y usarlo siempre ahi, pierde todo el sentido que es la portabilidad. El tema de auriculares es que depende para que quieras usarlo y tus preferencias de sonido te puede gustar mas uno u otro, no es como un mouse o teclado que podes leer las especificaciones y decir "este es mejor porque tiene switches de mejor gama" o algo así, la única forma de saber si un auricular es bueno para vos es probandolo. Los auriculares son algo totalmente sensorial, se compara más a la comida por ejemplo que es puramente sensorial, no a todos les gusta lo mismo, pero si la mayoría distingue entre comida chatarra y comida de calidad. Y no es caro tener un auricular bueno. Si vas por in-ears, un Kiwi ear Cadenza de 30 dólares le hace el ocote a cualquier auricular gamer caro como los Logitech pro X, G522, o Razer Kraken o Barracuda. Over-ear, los Superlux HD 681 y HD 330 rondan los 90k-100k y son buenos. Afuera los Hifiman HE400se salen 60-70 dólares y para muchos es endgame. También salieron hace poco los Kiwi ears Altruva por 70 dólares.
Still rocking my 7 years old superlux hd330
I want an EQ that compensates for its shortccomings and align it more with the Harman Target Curve.
Oh yes, I agree. I tend to turn the bass up a bit anyway in my dac as I like it punchy. I have ordered some velour pads and apparently it makes. A difference to the sound. It is pretty shocking how poorly the stock pads do not seal the contact area with the head and an astonishing among of sound must escape. This probably also affects the resonance of certain frequencies. I find that most pads could benefit dekmbeing feelers in shape so that there is a lot of clearance between the flat surface inside and the ear while it seats around the ear neatly At 40 dollars a pop, I can't fault those headphones though.
If you live in area, where you have shops that will allow you to test headphones before purchase.. also check out Superlux ( which is like a taiwaneese BeyerD clone for low bucks - for the price, i thinj they are amazing miracles ) -- HD330 or HD660 perhaps
Price to performance wired Superlux HD681 Evo or HD330 Pro will do the job. Wireless, general purpose - whichever is in your budget between Edifier 820, Soundcore Space One or Momentum 4
I tried out cheaper ones from Superlux just for fun and never felt the need to move on. My favorite has been Superlux HD330 open backs, which are copies of DT880. Hard to drive, but great sound that outperforms many headphones in the $150-200(as per audiophile forums). Not the most accurate in footsteps(not bad but not super amazing) though. They broke on me after 4 years and I just re-ordered the same ones again. Heard that Samson SR850(Superlux 668b) are another ones often mentioned as value option. JVC HA-RX900 - very comfortable semi-open with very precise audio and footsteps, but not as good instrument separation and soundstage as HD330.
Philips SHP9600 or Superlux HD330 pro, both of them are better than your Razers for any game, competitive also
Superlux HD330 Pro 32ohm and HD681 Air; JVC HA-RX900 beats it at that price
ATH-R50X, Sennheiser HD599/HD560, Superlux HD330 Pro(budget) as open backs. Closed back DT770 Pro, ATH-M50X and Superlux HD660 Pro(budget)
These games don't need a mic so disqualify all gaming headsets. You can get better and more immersive sound by going for normal wired open back headphones, they are simply better at everything, including competitive fps if that's your thing. Gaming headsets are only good if you really need a mic and convenience + sound isolation. I would go for Sennheiser HD599 or Philips X2HR at this price, as a budget option Superlux HD330 Pro.
Kind of, maybe not weaker but less rumbly across all frequencies. Open backs bleed sound to both sides so they are a lot more immersive and has huge soundstage, making you feel like you are inside the actual environment of whatever you are playing. Closed backs "bounce" back the sound into your ears so they feel more like listening to an environment. But frequency range depends on the headphone, Superlux HD681 Evo is open back and bassy as fuck, the HD330 Pro is more treble happy.
Firstly, you are mixing wired with wireless options over here. Wireless Bluetooth are useless for gaming without a low latency dongle. Also, you parents don't know the brands. Out of these only Sennheiser make good ones with gaming applications. The other brands don't even make any wired headphones, except for Sony. As far as recommendations: Wireless: Sennheiser Momentum 4 with BTD700 dongle(makes it low latency wireless and works with PS5) - Wired: Sennheiser HD599/HD560/HD550 Cheap off brand: Superlxux HD668B/HD330 pro - 80% sound performance of wired Sennheisers at 20% of the price. Don't let the brand name scare you, they are good.
> They’re priced high, but they’re actually worth it. Worth having more than 1 set. Switching between my Beyerdynamic, AudioTechnica, (old) AKG and some surprisingly good open-back Superlux keeps it fresh for me. Like, if I play Europa Universalis and I want to hear the seagulls better (weird Norwegian kink) I just put on the Superlux. If I want less fatigue/strain for, say, grinding out a new league on Path of Exile, I use the Beyerdynamics. If I want to blast Eurobeat while playing Rocket League I don the AudioTechnicas. And the old AKG HSC171s (of which I have two) come out when I want to really bring out the music and voiceovers in a short (emphasis on short, because they're HEAVY) session of a more artful singleplayer game. The latter are practically undrivable without a good headphone amplifier though, they're broadcast equipment afterall
