What headphones are you all using while gaming on Linux? (self.linux_gaming)

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?

Well, I don’t really like headphones, so mostly I’m using my living room stereo like it’s 1987 and I just got my first Amiga.

I do have a pair of beyerdynamic DT 990 Pros (3.5 mm TRS) because they’re supposed to sound “neutral” and their main purpose is to aid in audio …“work”… and voice chat. But they’re just fine for gaming, I guess, and have been trouble-free and fairly pleasant to wear (as big headphones go).

Are you perhaps referring to Beyetdynamic 990 Pros?

There's no Sennheiser DT 900 Pro. Do you mean beyerdynamic DT 900 Pro?
