Audio Technica knows about headphones!

Revane knows I've tried several headsets and they all had personal shortcomings such as fit and comfort, sound, features, and excessive heat build quality. My main heater was the Astro A50 Gen3, my volume control is starting to get naughty and my headphones are almost 2 years old, although very comfortable, in the top 3 for comfort, they have weakened over time. It's time to look for a new set of gaming headphones with good sound and comfort. After a few headsets, I almost gave up and am just…

Pros
  • Good Thing
Cons
  • Too Dumb

Perfect with minor improvements

Update: After a month of use they seem to be off too often for comfort and are being returned. During today's games there were about 15 shutdown signals within 10 minutes. I am very disappointed because I love these headphones. Now I'm going to try Corsair Virtuosos. :(So I'm looking for a wireless headset with a mic for gaming. I've used a boom mic, but I don't really stream and I wanted a better mic. The candidates for this round of gaming headsets were Sennheiser GP370, Astro A50, and Möbius

Pros

So, first some background information to give context to my review. I'm an average audiophile with a decent set of relatively high quality headphones…

Pros
  • understandable even for old
Cons
  • ca.
