IEMs and External mic has been the best solution for me. I love the Moondrop Chu 2’s sounds over most gaming headsets I’ve tried and I use a Samson Q2U microphone I got on a sale for a ~$90 set up that beats $100 gaming headsets on sound quality. I am however in PC so mileage may vary on consoles.

Anything that has good imaging will help you pinpoint individual sounds should be your top priority. Beyond that, using EQ settings, like the FPS modes you find in most software like SteelSeries Sonar can help too.

you need surround sound, the headphones need to support surround sound or you can simulate it by using "Windows Sonic for headphones" or Dolby Atmos Gaming feature. This guy in the video is not a real gamer, he doesn't know what he's talking about.

don't buy stereo headphones, as they will only have 2 channels, so you'll only hear the sounds coming from either left or right of your player/character but not 360 surround sound

Pretty sure Crin said at some point that the best pair of budget closed back headphones are iems and I agree with that. I don't have the budget for "good" headphones and gaming headsets stopped being comfortable after an an hour or so. Ended up buying a pair of Truthear Hola's and I've never looked back.

Now there's a question that audiophiles will debate until the end of time... I think it comes down to taste and budget. You can get a great pair of IEMs for under $50 US whereas $200 is the starting price for a good pair of headphones. To overly simplify things, IEMs are a good affordable option particularly if you like bass. Headphones are better if you want a wide soundstage and they are generally more comfortable for long sessions.

@goukigod
@goukigod 5 ай бұрын
Surround sound built in immediately takes it out of the budget category. That said, I think something with great imaging can be as good, if not better than surround sound. If you want a good all rounder in terms of audio performance and comfort, the Simgot EM6L IEM is worth checking out

This is an amazing video! But one thing I think should have been mentioned during the IEM section is interchangeable cables. IMO I would just get a pair of iems and change the cable to one that has a mic for the best of both worlds.

@goukigod
@goukigod Ай бұрын
So a common misconception is that headsets provide surround sound, but there are actually very few that do this without using additional software. Most headsets are stereo just like a pair of headphones. Examples of headsets that have surround sound/3D audio built in are the Astro A50 and JBL Quantum 910. Almost all headsets and headphones can be used with 3D audio software like the PS5's 3D audio.

So for your first pair of headphones, I would recommend not going overboard. The reason is, that when you start spending audiophile money on headphones, you may not immediately notice a big difference between them and something like a wireless Sony headphone or gaming headset. Spending more tends to have diminishing returns and if you don't have much experience with this kind of equipment you probably won't be able to tell much difference between a $500 and $1000 headphone when starting out. I think the Sennheiser HD 650 is a good place to start without spending too much. They are an open back design with good bass and detail making them suitable for gaming and music. Open back headphones will give you the most 3D like experience without using some kind of virtual surround sound software.
