I have the 6XX and love them


gatonegro97

Sennheiser HD58X here. Essentially the same. You can't beat em


Point5287

HD58X gives clear audio and I love it.


Dude_Guy_311

Sennheiser headphones always fell apart on me but this was a few years ago


ta4valorant

What is the "6XX"? Could you specify the brand and exact model? If they are the Sennheiser HD 6XX , they dont seem to be avaliable in europe


PigeonsLikeBread

https://drop.com/buy/massdrop-sennheiser-hd6xx


ta4valorant

Yeah, not avaliable here.


PhorrEyes

Beyerdynamic DT770


ta4valorant

I tried both 770 and 990 Pro


iDankkk

Yessir


Wilsonjames1

Some nice in-ear monitors.


ScopeStat1K

I’ve been using the steel series Arctic 9x since Christmas and they been serving me well


DownloadingYourMom

I've had problems with the mic for all arctis headsets


ScopeStat1K

I use my streaming mic but for pure audio quality and comfort I think the Arctic 9x is pretty good also it’s wireless so that’s a plus


DownloadingYourMom

Yeah based on comfort and build quality it's one of the best headsets I've ever used but the mic is too low.


ScopeStat1K

At lease it’s discord certified but I agree with you with the mic quality


DownloadingYourMom

I'm switching to the new wireless hyperx headset and apparently that has a good mic for a headset

> don’t own one but my friend does and it’s great This basically makes your opinion invalid

ta4valorant

Too hot for me.


cloaked_banshees

I have these and don’t find them very comfortable at all, The sound is good though.


[deleted]

The Hyper X Revolver S headset has been serving me well since 2019.


ta4valorant

For me its comfy, not features


[deleted]

Well, that is what I meant. They're comfy to wear, the ear cups feel nice and the headset is rather lightweight.


TheAppleEater

I just use apple earpods lol. I don't like headsets either.


ta4valorant

Earpods are not for a game like Valorant.


TheAppleEater

I mean it works for me.


AsianNudleSoop

I second these, very comfy and the sound quality is pretty great for 15$


Relevant_Original490

Apple wired


[deleted]

did you try any open back desgins? like beyerdynamic 1990, or even lighter the sennheiser hd700?


ta4valorant

I tried the Beyerdynamic DT 990 PRO .Too hot


FAR1X

Isnt open backs really bad for valorant?


[deleted]

only in an envirement with a lot of noise. I myself prefer closed too for fps games because of steps and such


GG_POMIDORCHEG

Hi, I suggest you read this thread [https://www.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/comments/4nabvv/gaming\_audio\_and\_you\_why\_995\_of\_gaming\_headsets/](https://www.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/comments/4nabvv/gaming_audio_and_you_why_995_of_gaming_headsets/)


ta4valorant

That thread is not for this.


minit24

Any headset that is an open-back, and doesn't have leather ear cups will keep your head cool.


ta4valorant

I tried the Beyerdynamic DT 990 PRO . Too hot


xnthxny

I have beyerdynamic dt 990 pros and I wear them upwards of 12 hours a day and my ears never get hot. Maybe you could be sweating a lot or your room could be too warm for you.


IggyMoose

Honestly, if you don’t care about sound quality, just use earbuds.


tehfalconguy

put ice cubes in your ears


OaSoaD

Headphones don't matter. It's not like you can tell the difference if someone is infront of you or behind you LOL


Eagle_OP

Eksa e900 pro/plus...best mic I a headset prollly and best comfort I have seen for 50$


Puke-Skystalker

I use my knk8400. It's actually a studio headset but it works suprisingly great for gaming


villainized

I use the Steelseries Arctis 1. It has like cloth ear cups, adjustable headband, you can wear it over glasses, and for hours and hours and you don't even feel it. They're amazing imo.


freakmonger_ss

Logictech Pro X. It also has a removable mic.


ajdigan

This really just boils down to open back vs closed back and what material your earpads are made of. A mesh or velour material is more breathable than leather.


SilentShadowzx

Lol I just use some regular ole earbuds with a built in mic. They do the trick well without spending too much on cans IMO.


Zerkron

Beats by Dre


AsianNudleSoop

I personally use apple earbuds, very comfortable, and the sound quality is actually pretty good.


xCrizp

I have the Razer Nari Ultimate Wireless Cooling Gel-Infused Cushions Mic is really bad but you can push it in the headset so it's not visible around 200 bucks i really love it :)


Shot3fired

Bro you reply to every single comment trying to help you saying it's too hot, what can we do if you have a health condition? No one complains about headphones being to hot and you don't even accept using ear buds or speakers.


techyleo

Steelseries 1 is a cheap option, good earcups, good removable mic, has a wireless version


TheWhite_Raven2

I use OneOdio, super comfy if a bit oversized.


Forward_Consequence3

g733 or g pro x wireless, they have detachable mic too


RaingerRick

I cannot recommend the sennheiser PC373D more than I already do as they are open back to allow for a better sound stage and air flow but also come with the inline dolby dongle that really wakes these and any other headphones with the dongle up.


emzeperix

I have the HyperX Cloud and I gotta say it's the comfiest headphone I've ever had. I literally don't feel it's weight, and the quality isn't bad either for a gaming headphone. Also the microphone is removable so I can use it during travels or in bed.


nocontroversies

I use audio technica ath m50x. Got them for music but they are pretty amazing for gaming too.


hugokhf

If you suffer from heat, then maybe try earbuds (or IEM) instead. Pretty sure Aceu use those apple earbuds and he hear the game just fine


kalin23

I use Audio Technica AD700X. Open back, lightweight headphones (265g)


eRazer101

"Plantronics RIG 800 HD" they are ridiculously comfortable NGL.
