I have this one. It is very underwhelming……until you use it with Dolby or DTS X spatial audio. It’s a complete beast afterwards. By itself, it sounds like a 50 dollar set, but using one of the surround sound apps really unlocks it’s potential. Since then I use them with console and pc gaming exclusively. I hope you give them a try.

I just spent like 30 min at GameStop browsing head sets. I told the guy I wanted one that was 100 dollars because I've always gotten like 20 dollar ones my whole life and never really tried to get good quality ones , like as long as I had something o talk with I was good. So for once boe rhat I have some extra money I wanted to invest in something high quality but the only ones for 100 there are wireless and personally I'm not a fan of the thought of having to charge my head set in the middle of using them. Sure its not likely they will die during use because I only play like 3 to 5 hours tops usually but Id rather avoid that all together so he pointed these out to me. They were the most expensive ones that are wired. Hoping they are good. I'm at work so I haven't used them yet
