Whats the best headset from logitech?

The best headphones are the ones made by companies for whom audio is their specialty. Go to r/headphones , ask "what's the best gaming headphones for [insert budget]?" You will not get a single recommendation of Logitech or Razer or HyperX or similar. And for a good reason. Some of their products ar

HD800S vs HDB630: Can wireless hang?

I have not heard the HDB 630, but I will say that price, or even the fact that it's wireless are not significant limitations. There are things cheaper Sennheiser models that do some things better than the HD 800 S, in my opinion. A good example is the midrange and treble of the HD 600 and HD 650, fo

Kurumi Tokisaki ASMR has purchased over 5k copies and ranked 1st on the store

I was the one who bought it. It is great experience when you listen 24bits 2304Kbps ASMR on Sennheiser HD800s headphone. It is like she was there right next to you, whispering at your ears.

HD 800s 📸

Forget everything you think you know about what makes a great headphone. The real magic in the Sennheiser HD 800 S isn't about booming bass or sparkling highs in isolation. It's about something far more fundamental, yet often overlooked: its uncanny ability to lay bare the overtones in music.

HD600, HD800S, or Alternative?

Sennheiser will probably be fine. Aside from that, you just missed the HD 600 on sale for $379. The HD 650 is still on sale for $399 I believe, but that is on Amazon. The HD 800 S will probably be more similar sounding to your Arya depending on how well it seals on your head, and how much treble you

What headset is better for gaming?

I own the HE1000se and all I do is game on it. I had the Sennheiser HD 490 Pro and the HD 800 S as well. Those were great for gaming and especially the 800 S for competitive play. But the HE1000se, once I picked those up, I knew I’d never pick up my Sennheisers again. They are amazing! Basically the

Those of you complaining about the mix or the tone being "brittle" must not be listening on good sound systems

My Sennheiser HD 800 S headphones kind of beg to differ. That said, my main mix complaint is how dry it is, especially the vocals. I definitely think MD have released warmer-sounding albums

What is a 'buy it for life' item that is offensively expensive, but the moment you use it, you realize your entire life before that point was a lie?

Sennheiser HD 800 S or Audeze. You don’t just hear music. I hear space, texture, breath. Songs I’ve known for years suddenly have layers I never noticed. It is unsettling.

My take on the HDB 630 as an entry/mid-level listener.

Ive had my 630’s for a few weeks now. I believe the only points I agree with would be the material being left oily after use (I do a quick wipe off with my shirt and haven’t had any issues) and the gesture controls being awful, which I just disabled altogether. As far as comfort, I don’t find them “
