I need a gaming headset that isn't going to break itself within a year.

So looking at the PC37x they do look nice. Problem is they're sold out. The PC38x seems like it's almost the same thing.

Drop PC38X made by Sennheiser. Open back. The single best headset for its money and way cheaper than it should be. Endorsed by a multitude of users and audiophiles.

Nachfolger-Headset zu Sennheiser Game Zero gesucht

The PC38X would be the most direct spiritual successor to the Game Zeros. The PC38x can be had from drop.com, and dont have the sennheiser branding anymore, but were designed by EPOS and then drop acquired the rights to sell them exclusively under their name. I have both of these headphones and the

Advice needed

the DROP PC38X is good. Mic quality isn't great, but solid headphones. Open back design so has more natural sound and lightweight design that will survive wear and tear.

Gaming headset?

If you want a headset with a mic I recommend the pc38x from drop. Long story short it is a sennheiser hd560s with a flip mic on the side with a lower impedance requirement and slightly different tuning to make it sound like everything is around you instead of in front (I have both and this is how I

similar, but non-razer headphone recs?

Honestly I've been impressed with the sound and durability of the Drop PC38X. It's open-back, which is specifically what I had been looking for due to the general ventilation effect of open-back headphones. https://drop.com/buy/drop-pc38x-gaming-headset If you're looking for wireless or closed-back,

Headset recommendations

Firstly, make sure to use the “Boost Quiet Sounds” feature in the PS5. It is much healthier and will allow you to listen at volumes that don’t damage your ears and allow you to hear everything. As for headsets: I would’ve said PC38X but it is an open back so it doesn’t work for you. These are not in

best headset on the market currently?

Drop headphones if you have a quiet house. They're open backed, so better sound stage, but they don't block out outside noise. https://www.amazon.com/DROP-PC38X-Gaming-Headset-Noise-Cancelling/dp/B0FDH3NK2L/143-1543027-7467226 If you want the best setup possible, IEM's with a standalone mic like a B

I want to splurge on headphones this christmas so I can listen to Internal Empire on my turntable.

Dude. You’re the one correcting me. This isn’t a deposition. If you are right, great, drop a link proving it and we’ll all know better for it. I have no pride over any of this whatsoever. We’re all just shooting the shit on reddit. Ps. I noticed you downvoted me, gave a snarky response, then immedia

Better headset?

Look for open back gaming headphones or gaming headsets with sidetone. Audio Technica USB Streamset has good sidetone on it. Or DROP PC38X is a popular open back choice we see.
