The fact that I generally prefer to play with very good stereo head listening rather than 7.1 gaming headsets is neither a secret nor somehow decadent. Resolution and location are simply better. But it doesn't always work without a microphone. Yes and then? Most of the headphones in my collection are wired and the one used here in the test [...]

I always have a hard time with superlatives, especially in the area of gaming headsets. Almost always for a good reason, and very rarely in a positive sense. But if exceptions confirm the rule, then today is a state of exception. Of course I don’t want to spoil too much, but I have to point out that it’s really worth reading on [...]
Unfortunately, we have to point out that we had to withdraw the award for the headset in the meantime, because quality problems occurred in the long-term test, which are not acceptable in this price range. We apologise to our readers, but we are unable to fully uncover such shortcomings in the short time available for such tests.
So there are still the really bright moments when testing gaming headsets, where sound and attention to detail mean even more than RGB lighting and the battle for the most affable design, including virtual surround tape. Honest, precise and, unfortunately, also a little more expensive than the average. This is exactly where Sennheiser wanted to [...]
The Sharkoon B1 is now already open for less than 40 euros. And if you follow Sharkoon's philosophy that can't break, which isn't even in the first place and that all of this is packed (also visually) acceptable, then you can be curious. It should be clear now that you can't expect an acoustic or technical flyer for this price, but [...]
For currently just under 100 Euro (Saturn on offer from approx. 86 Euro) Roccat offers with the Khan Aimo the new edition or reinterpretation of the Khan Pro and wants to score with RGB and an active USB sound card. But this is exactly a point where it is worth taking a closer look and listening, as well as completely disassing the story. In order [...]
From the pilot headset straight to the gaming hell? Beyerdynamic does not make it easy with the mmX 300 in the second generation, but in return it delivers a very solid piece of technology that is definitely worth its price. Fit, seat and sound are of course subjective, but the prerequisites ex works could hardly be better. That is why I have [...]
Sennheiser also makes in gaming headsets. Well, this realization is not so new, but after all the tests of the last few months, this specimen was a very welcome change. After all, we are not in the double-digit range, where most of the usual suspects are found, but very clearly above them. With approx. Sennheiser can also pay the GSP 550 quite [...]
Not quite cheap, but actually worth every penny. At least you can come to this conclusion if you used the Beyerdynamic Aventho Wireless quite intensively over a long period of time. In the end, today's test also reflects my own user and connoisseur behaviour, even if I of course also take the usual defoliations and measurements for the article [...]
Virtual Acoustic's Cave GH51 Pro is a completely redesigned wireless headset with four drivers per earcup, neatly implemented Bluetooth technology, and a switchable, proprietary wireless connection that includes uncompressed content largely lag-free and in decent quality. In addition, there is a separate transmitter with a high degree of [...]
Between 30 and almost 60 euros, depending on the source and discount situation, you have to look for the NC25. From time to time you get it, like me, on Amazon for just under 30 euros with discount code. And since I'm not very vain (at least not with something like that), the NC25 was allowed to replace the permanently oppressive Samsung Level [...]
With the Spearhead VRX Gaming Headphone, 1More offers a gaming headset that is not actually a headset in the classic sense. In addition, Waves NX 3D is a well-functioning tracking solution that captures all movements of the head and implements them exactly in the audio image. But in addition to this in the test further details, exciting and rare [...]
With the ROG Strix Fusion 300, Asus offers customers a 130-euro headset. But is the headset really worth the proud entry price? We listened carefully and measured it. As always, light and shadow are close together.

With the Logitech G Pro you want to round off the current portfolio upwards and make everything a little better. But can this really succeed? We are testing the 99-euro headset, which, like the Kingston HyperX Alpha, is in line with the current trend.
With the Kingston HyperX Cloud Alpha you would like to build on the successes of your predecessors and maybe make everything even a little better. But can this really succeed? We are testing the new headset with double-chamber technology in the...

Roccat is currently offering a new headset with the Khan Pro for just under 100 euros, which now wants to be better than all other gaming headsets on the left and right of it on the shelf.

It is nice, for all the euphoria, one must of course first of all put in mind that such cheap offers should hardly have what it takes to become the subject of archaeological excavations of future generations intact. You have to be so honest about material selection ... Microphone The omni-directional microphone built into a gooseneck does what it [...]
With marketing, that's always such a thing, because that starts with the category. Semi-open or semi-closed? Depending on the head size and the resulting pressure, this is a matter of interpretation, but more. And otherwise? With currently just 60 ...
