So, I’ve been in a 2 week battle with my brain trying to decide on a new headset. My current one isn’t really broken, but I’m tired of the people on discord complaining about the noise coming from the nipple mic (and the nobs have started falling off on the inline control) and there are some other general annoyances creeping up.
Now I have watched A LOT of youtube reviews on A LOT of different headsets and my over analytical brain just can’t make it’s mind up. So I thought I would come seek advice here… from people that might have some first hand experience.
Now my main factors to consider in this decision is mic quality (the main thing at this point) and comfort.
things like 7.1 are bonuses (I’ve kinda gotten used to it)
So I’ll poll my main contenders at this point of the fight from the pool of what is actually available to purchase. If anybody has any recommendations that’s not on my list please post
yeah the 1 has the same drivers as the 7. The only real difference I can see is the head band, the mute button and the mic is detachable instead of pull out…
I’ve heard they’re great, but you can’t get them anymore
Sennheiser is ALWAYS a good option, regardless of the function. I’ve never had better earbuds and I’ve had 2x sets of CX-300ii (replaced it after I lost the first pair) and replaced them with CX5’s about 2 years ago after the left earbud went.
Dude, you get used to it so fast, and the mic on the sennies are just magic. I miss mine.
I do own the Arctis 3 - the only complaint I have is that some nights it feels like I have to put the mic right against my mouth for people to hear me.
For what it is worth, I have a set of Logitech G Pro. Best darn headset I ever owned! Cannot seem to find them in stock anywhere though The X has a different USB DAC but the cans are identical.
