Ok I don’t want to start a fight…

But if someone wants to buy a new pair of headphones with mic for that one gaming night of the week. And dont care about the rgb and other gimmicks. What should they buy?

Ofc asking for a friend here.

Probably not the best, bit I do like these for that situation.

Corsair HS35

Bought them on a whim without much thought because I couldn’t get my really nice wireless headphones to work with older games. These work with anything because they are wired. Also the little bits like the soft strap make them comfy to wear.

Plain basic, cheap.

How much do you care about the quality? Both what you hear and how well you’re heard? What’s a reasonable price to you?

I not a fan of the headphones that completely block everything that you can’t even hear yourself speak. Don’t care about wired or wireless that much. As long as it lasts.

And works on my Linux fedora PC.

Ofc when I say I mean my friend.

I’m a big fan of a modmic on a pair of jvc ha-rx700.

Mod mic is a stick on mic so you wouldn’t have anywhere to stick it.

If you wear glasses you could try sticking the magnet to those I guess? 

Saying so I had one of the original mod mics and it was great while it lasted, but I found the cable was damaged pretty easily which ended up with it in the bin. 

They do have a wireless version with its own dongle, decent bit of kit despite the micro USB charging lol.

Koss. Used the kph30i with inline mic as a teaching assistant when everything was remote. The porta pro has a version with a mic. I don’t think you can get anything that sounds anywhere close to as good for the price range.
