Hey!

 

I'm kinda clueless when it comes to headsets. What headset would you recommend for gaming & listening to music? I like electronic music, so having a good bass would be nice.

 

My current headset is the Hyperx Cloud Flight wireless, and I am looking to upgrade to something better. 🙂

Probably better to go with wired right? Microphone is a big plus.
