I had a $30 Creative Fatal1ty Headset for several years while playing World of Warcraft and now Overwatch.  Imagine my surprise when I purchased Philips SHP9500S for $50 two weeks ago.  I'm totally blown away by the difference.  I absolutely love the way they sound.  I can even hear which direction footsteps are coming from (could only hear them nearby before).  My research had many recommending the Phillips SHP9500 rather than the over-rated $100 gaming headsets on the market.

 

I also attached the V-moda Boompro microphone to it.  Works great.

CPU: Ryzen 5 5600x  Board: Asus PRIME X570-P  Ram: G.Skill Ripjaws V Series 16GB (2x8) DDR4-3000  Case: Fractal Design Define S
