  1. 1. Best Headphone among these?

    • Cooler Master MH751
      8
    • SteelSeries Arctis 1
      1
    • HyperX Could Stinger
      1
    • HyperX Cloud II
      3
    • Razer Kraken X
      0
    • Razer Blackshark V2 X
      1
    • Corsair Void Elite RGB
      1


Help me choose between these budget Gaming Headphone options available in my region:

 
  • Cooler Master MH751
  • SteelSeries Arctis 1
  • HyperX Could Stinger
  • HyperX Cloud II
  • Razer Kraken X
  • Razer Blackshark V2 X
  • Corsair Void Elite RGB
 
 
Priority: Music Performance. I like to have a tiny amount of base boost but definitely not such that it overpowers other ranges.
PS: not looking for suggestions as i need a gaming headphone with a mic to do all my other works, thus a best option from the above list will suffice.
TIA

If music is the priority I wouldn't be considering any of these gamer-oriented products frankly. Do you only need headphones or do you need a headset with a mic? If you need a headset for gaming that will also sound good for listening to music, at least see what's available from established audio brands like Sennheiser or Audio-Technica before buying something from a gamer peripheral brand. 

Corps aren't your friends. "Bottleneck calculators" are BS. Only suckers buy based on brand. It's your PC, do what makes you happy.  If your build meets your needs, you don't need anyone else to "rate" it for you. And talking about being part of a "master race" is cringe. Watch this space for further truths people need to hear.

Needing a headset with a mic doesn't mean you have to pick from gaming peripheral brand options. Sennheiser, Audio-Technica, etc. make headsets with mics. If you care about audio quality look into what you can get in your region (whatever that is) from a real audio gear company, not a gaming peripheral company.

Basically what @Middcore said. Not sure if you can get Sennheiser where you are, but if you look online you can get excellent deals on things like the Game Zero. All of the headphones you listed are going to sound like trash in comparison to something more dedicated; you could also look at adding a mic to a pair of audio headphones.

 

I've had several gaming headsets, and the only time I'd ever use them was when I needed to use voice. The sound quality for music was simply pathetic, and they weren't cheap units ($200+).

the cooler master mh751 are based from the takstar pro 82 headphone and should be quite good for music as well as gaming. 

 

The best thing to do would be to watch some reviews of those that look the most interesting to you among those you selected.
