What headphones / Headset are you using?

[Damian]

Just out of curiosity, what Headphones / Headset are you using, why you choose them and are you happy with them flaws? no flaws?

Corsair HS70. Main reason I chose them is connection type. They connect by usb, audio jack, and bluetooth so I can use the same headphones for anything really. Good quality from my point of view. Good bass, but maybe too much for some.

Hifiman HE6SE, they sound amazing. The stock headband was a little uncomfortable for me in extended sessions. I ended up swapping it out with the hybrid headband and also swapped the stock earpads with a set of Dekoni pads. They do require a decent amp to get the most out of them, not really a flaw but something that will severely hinder them if overlooked.

Steelseries Arctis Nova 7 wireless.

Very comfortable, good sound, good positional audio for gaming, long battery life but also works on wired while charging. Nothing to say against them really, just a really good headset, I have 3 of them on 3 different machines.

Jabra Elite 7 Pro

Earbuds

I don't do headsets anymore, waste of space and weight on your head.

Crusher Evo for additional haptic bass speaker that gives a subwoofer effect. There is nothing like that from any other brand. And the bass is super clean without overtaking highs.

Audio Technica ATH-m40x almost 10 years now. Still going strong.

[Rumpelcrutchskin]

Audio Technica ATH-m20x because they were cheap.
Sound is pretty good, way better then your usual gaming headsets. Only problem is that they are not very comfy and will make your ears sweat when you wear them long. Pretty sturdy.

Steelseries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless. I was back and forth between several options, but in the end I couldn't go away from the swappable batteries after having it on my prior headset.

Logitech G335 white, really soft on touch and comfy ..

CoD MW Astro A10's
KZ EDX Pro IEM
X2 Standard IEM
I have some notable wireless buds, but don't use them with my computers.
Less than $50 on all 3. All comfortable and have a decent sound stage for the price. I do use Waves audio tuning for my headsets and monitors. (especially the KZs - I'll be buying another set to try along with some accessories)
Going to buy a filtered mic and an audiophile headset soon. Give the Astro's to my son.

AKG 702 headphones

[76561198285398721]

idk but theyre black and blue which is funny because they arent very good

the microphone always gets in the way and theyre big and clumsy and have bad definition
and the left ear started dropping out but i fixed it with tape to keep the wire in the sweet spot

also i keep accidentally turning the volume wheel on it which makes it play at different volumes on each side

[Guydodge]

i use a cheaper pair of usb headset with 40 or 50mm drivers has to have no volume wheel
a up and down button volume is ok and a braided cord.then i use a quality EQ software
(Boom 3D) even the best mother boards have crap sound IMO.

hmm...Green Razor headphones...I'm not sure what type. I got them from a friend.

Let's see, sound only works in the left side (right side just stopped for some reason, a few months into the use). Mic works great.

plugging it into the PC doesn't work great either. Needs a splitter (which it came with) and the connection is lacking and you are tethered to the PC. I have audio jack extender cables, but this pair doesn't work well with them. Still, really happy not to need batteries.

Instead, I run the headset and discord on the phone, while I play the PC game and use my speakers for game sound (but not social things). I like this approach better.

Really glad I got a pair of headphones that work both on the PC and the phone, been happy with that choice a few times.

Also, bright green is way easier to find when you misplace them.
