A place for making the right decision when purchasing new headphones. Here you can ask which headphone is better, which amp you should buy, which gear best fit your budget and anything related to headphone comparisons and purchasing.
I'm looking for a headset with a good dynamic mic.
I need a good headset or headphone/headset mic combination. I hate dealing with gating/limiting/AI reduction for background noise and i live in a noisy environment with very clicky peripherals. I play a lot of vr so a static mic isn't the ideal solution any more.
My main gaming headphones are old as hell ath-ad700s and i love them. But they are held together with thermo platic and zip ties. and my mic is a Rode NT-usb, which has a lot of latency and it's gated so much it cuts off a lot of my voice.
I was thinking of just upgrading to some 990s or Senns ( i prefer open back for gaming) and running a Shure WH20 headset mic but i can't find anything about people using the mic for gaming or streaming where they weren't pre-recorded.
I'm not looking to spend a small fortune, general purpose headphones take tumbles i'd rather not cry about.
Thoughts?
Not really, most of those are condenser mics and i already have two of those. The mics in the AT BPHS1 and Shure BRH440M are the style i need but i have no clue what the headphones sound like, and they are marketed as broadcast headsets.
Would the Audeze maxwell be better for you?
