Headset Recommendations

PostHeadset Recommendations by **Tomous** » Fri Apr 09, 2021 10:24 am

Anyone got any recommendations for a good wireless gaming headset? Would be for PS4 but would want it to work with next gen eventually.

Assume you have to pay a fair wedge for a decent set?

Also, is 3D Audio that noticeable a difference?

Steel Series 7X seem to be the go to pair if you want it to work with everything that has a usb socket. About £170 but i think they do a 10% off thing all the time.

I would have bought these, and had done loads of research, but then the Xbox Wireless headset came out and i got them with my rewards points instead (they are great also, but in no way compatible with Sony).

Dolby Atmos (and therefore 3D audio and all its variants) make a huge difference when done well. I was playing Deep Rock Galactic last night, and i could hear whether a pinging beacon was above or below me. I always find that stuff mind blowing.

Many games dont really utilise it, and it can come at the cost of bass.

+1 for the Steel Series. I got the 9X for Xbox wireless convenience.

Is there anything thatd work wirelessly with my Series X, then wired with my Switch (as for some reason that doesn’t support wireless headphones :roll:

)?

Steel Series 7X. Or 9X if you dont need to wirelessly connect to anything else.

The 9X has a 3.5mm jack, so I guess you could connect that to the Switch (the cable isn’t included, but they’re cheap).

Thanks, would be good to have something that covers all bases rather than having another pair of headphones around the place.

Double check that though. I’d hate for you to fork out and me be wrong! (But I don’t see why it wouldn’t work.)

Not planning on buying anything right now anyway, just thought I’d ask if anything out there fitted the bill, which obviously does
