a highly undecisive person on the look for a headset

Alkyy

so as i managed to break my current gx cavimanus headset im on the look for another,

Ive hearing alot of good about these hyperx cloud things but they dont look that good to me, if they are that good what is the difference between all of them (1,2,core,stinger,revolvo..)

atm im deciding between:

another pair of gx cavimanus (theyve been pretty good and just about the right size, maybe a little too heavy) / razer kraken usb (on a sale atm so come at about the same price as the gx, seem small and apparently razer is garbage)

and for the non budget all in option the Corsair VOIDs look just beautiful and ive wanted a wireless headset for a very long time (good for watching movies from the bed and the cable always gets stuck under my chair :c)

so tell me please you lovely and helpful ltt community, also taking suggestions, my current set may not be in one piece but sound is still coming out so ill be checking this thread often and im not so desperate

Krakens are shit

 

if you want wireless, Corsair VOIDs are nice, Logitech G933s have a lot of features, but not as good sound quality (still decent)

 

Are you looking for a headset with a mic? or headphones (no mic?) because you can get some really nice sound quality for not a ton of money without a mic

Well, with an i7, GTX 1080, Full tower and flashy lights, it can obviously only be for one thing:

Solitaire.

The clouds actually sound okay (like a £30 pair of headphones), are very comfortable, and have a ok mic.

If you're after more, get a mod mic to go with your prefered pair of headphones.

Personally I use a pair of Bose QCs with a stand alone condenser mic.

Probably a much better plan than a headset...

Was I helpful? Accept my answer or agree / mark me as informative!

Quote me, or I probably won't notice you responded to me!

I would recommend G930 as I have it and I love it, granted I have not really tried any other but it's very nice. I don't know if I would recommend G933 tho just because I don't think the ear pads are as comfortable, but that could just be preference so at best buy they have g933/g633 for show so you could try those, but my personal recommendation would be G930

You could do it for about the price of a Cloud if you went for a Superlux HD668B, a pair of BrainWavez velour pads, and a BM100FX mic.

The HD668Bs sound amazing for the price and the pads makes it a lot better. And the BM100FX is a cheap condenser that takes power from usb and uses a standard 3.5mm mic input.
