What are some headphones with budget-tier price and god-tier performance?
>>
>>320228331
Meant to say headset with mic
>>
>>320228331
HyperX Cloud II are the only acceptable "gaming headsets", period. Anything else can fuck off.

Go see /g/'s /hpg/ if you want actual headphones and not overpriced snake oil.
>>
>>320228331
Buy headphones and mic separately you retard
Gaming headsets are for dumbfucks with too much cash.

No excuse, it's cheaper to buy decent headphones + a cheap mic than it is to buy some gaymen headset.

I saw a reddit post that said for streaming a really good cheap headset is the HyperX cloud 2.

inb4 reddit

If you wanna buy a good Mic+headphones headset you really can't go lower than like $60-70, whereas if u get the mic seperately a $3 stand mic will out do a $100 headset mic

Because unlike most gay men headset scams, the HyperX Cloud II is actually just Takstar Pro80s painted to look more gay men with a microphone attached.

Seriously though, surround sound gay men headsets are a scam. Surround sound headphones don't exist, it's not a real thing. All it does is make you sound quality a lot worse, and even make the "surround sound" effect a lot worse than just regular stereo.

HD558's pham

X2's are a bit more pricy. don't listen to anyone suggesting beyers or any of your ricer gaming brands.
>>
The Sennheiser HD 202 are usually 20$ on Amazon and feature amazing quality for that price with a reasonable bass without going into nigger territory, which make it excellent for gayming. Its also got a 3 meters cable so you can connect it to your TV as well if you do console gaming.
You can get a cheap desktop mic or buy a 1$ cable to use an android cellphone as a mic.

tfw I don't even use my mic

HyperX Cloud.

Don't buy the second version, they're garbage.
>>
>>320228331
Honestly the $10 pair I picked up at radio shack has been great, had it for about 4 years now, which is at least twice as long as most "gaming" headset's I've used lasted.

Also NEVER buy turtle beaches, went through two pairs in a year, the first one's left earpiece snapped clean off when I was putting it on, and the second's right earpiece just stopped working (which is the usual problem I have with gaming headsets, think it may be because they have one cord going to the left ear, whereas the RS ones have wires to both ears so it doesnt wear out as easy). In addition they're retarded and require being plugged into the audio and/or mic, AND a USB port to actually function.
>>
>>320232585
What's wrong with 2nd version?
>>
>>320229378
I use the comfort version and i got it for about $60 (45 ish in amerifat dollars) so anything thats comfy and has a passably good mic is probably worth getting. If you are budget

>>320233638
Oh btw mines Cloud 1 not Cloud 2.

>>320228801
ps4 supports headphones in the controller and a mic in usb. works well for me.

>>320230994
7:1 surround is a scam. You would have to be literally wearing bricks on your head for proper surround sound
>>
>>320228331

Superlux?

>I'm not a dumb fuck and I want to spend my money wisely and receive something that is actually good in return

As for the topic, I remember that Creative fatal1ty headset was pretty good and relatively cheap, but the cable on them is too thin and will be damaged eventually
>>
>>320230994
>the HyperX Cloud II is actually just Takstar Pro80s

But it's cheaper and it comes with a mic. So why bother getting a Takstar Pro80 over the HyperX cloud?

Jokes on you, I also listen to music. They only become anime headphones when I am sad and alone.

So all the time.

Well shit thats pretty tough for my 3rd worlder paycheck for a headset
>>
>>320236781
>>
>>320236862
Then get a Cloud I. It's only $80.
>>
>>320237089

90 here so not much of a difference.
Looks like my superlux hmd660, are they atleast good quality? its hard to tell if its all plastic or not in pictures

Or if they are comfy, the superlux definitely is not.
>>
>>320231390
I got the 7506' Whats the big difference between them and the V6?
>>
>>320228531
This right here

Outside the hyper cloud 1 and 2

There is no such thing as a good headset for anything

Nothing.

I own both the cloud 1 and 2 , I got the cloud 2 for $60 early in the year and loved it so much I bought the cloud 1 for around $40 during Black Friday for consoles

Plus music doesn't sound bad on them
>>
>>320237553
I think the 7506 are just gold platted.

Word of advice
Cloud 2 is worth the extra money and both work for ps4 , Xbox and even as just headphones for wiiu

What's a cheap mic I should use?
>>
>>320233271
Can confirm. Had 2 Turtle Beaches in the span of a year, both snapped in exactly the same place. Instantly abandoned ship to Logitech, my G430 is still perfectly fine after 2, going on to 3 years, or however long the G430 has bern on the market, I forget.
