Looking for some good headphones to use for listening to music, and gaming. Could do wireless.. but I feel like USB or 3.5 mm connection would be best. Seems like a lot of the big brands have stuff locked into their windows apps.

What are you all using?

If you're ok with, at some point in their life, redoing the internal cables to fix them, the MH752 are the most comfortable thing I ever had on my ears, they also sound good both audio and mic, they're closed back so a little hot for summer, and comes with a usb to trrs mini jack adapter, which is important for the microphone since using a basic splitter to split mic and audio to two trs if you don't have a trrs plug on your pc will introduce noise in the microphone input.

but yeah, the little cables going from the internal pcb to the other side of the headphone will eventually break and need replacing, they're not very hard to fix though.

back when they used to make them, combining shp9500 with a vmoda boompro was the shit, maybe the shp9600 are a good place to go
