and he kills any Hills and he Hills dude where's my heels dude what the hell oh I need heels this isn't gonna work guys any something what is up guys is BT back here again with another review today I'm gonna help you guys step up your gaming sound quality I mean with give me headphones being lackluster and overpriced what are we to do to get great sound for our gaming because really gaming does Drive the emotions and the feelings behind the game I mean I can still remember myself I myself can remember all the songs from the Final Fantasy games and the satisfaction that comes along with collecting all those coins in Mario inside the Hedgehog so after my disappointing run with gaming headsets so I found myself looking for better options and they needed to meet certain criteria one it needs to be able to I need to be able to wear them for a long period of time to they need to have great sound stage so that I can locate enemies three create great emotion and immersion into the game and four let me communicate clearly with my teammates and from my findings the best way to do this is just to buy a standalone headphone and buy a standalone mic so today I'm gonna share with you guys my findings of what I finally landed upon and just gotten rid of every single gaming headset that I have for this setup okay so first let's talk about the headphone sound quality and now you're gonna want a pair of headphones that are open back if you don't know what that is it just allows sound to come from the outside it's gonna leak a lot of sound but it's also gonna give you a lot of soundstage and it's gonna give you that 3d effect for your games because after all you need to know where your enemies are on the map and a good pair of headphones that won't break the bank are the Sennheiser 5 9 8 and these things won't break the bank you can find these for about 99 or 150 bucks not bad right sometimes they even go lower than that now with open back you will give away you will give up some of that boom eNOS but you will gain a lot of that 3d soundstage where you can just hear stuff like bullets flying past you and all that stuff and with these headphones that 5/9 aids you can actually wear these for a long period of time I these are the only pair of headphones that have never fatigue me at all like I can wear these and I can forget that they're even there and that's saying a lot how do any headphone guys that I've ever tried these are the best for comfort hands down the flora material is nice the headband is nice I've sat on these a million times and they have just lasted they've been through the grinder so definitely I recommend these for gaming these are my number ones for gaming so now that we met the first three criteria we need to actually find the fourth and that is finding a great mic now for mic choices I recommend getting one by blue mic there's some bias in hyzer but they can be pretty pricey so there are two that I can recommend that I actually own and that is the blue Yeti and the snowball so the snowball comes in at about $50 and the blue Yeti comes in around $100 now both of these mics sound very very similar I would only get the blue Yeti might want to do maybe voiceovers for your games or interviews or if you're just making content but otherwise the snowball will work out just fine they sent a sound almost the same I'm not gonna lie to you guys and the great thing about this is you're not gonna have a mic that's gonna be coming around your face you could just put on your desk anywhere that you want and it still picks up your voice very very well you know if you're there face palming because your teammates aren't doing their job you might hit your mic and that might mess up things so it's nice just having a little style of mic away that just kind of makes you feel less claustrophobic at the end of the day now the beauty of this setup but having a standalone setup is that although it may be a little bit more expensive up front this is about $150 and I feel like that's a bargain but the beauty of it is you can always upgrade later so let's say you pick up a pair of headphones that you really really like you want to use them for gaming you think they sound better than your old ones you can just swap out your old headset and then put in your new one right to have the great mic there or if you want upper you mic you can do that it goes vice-versa but the thing is is just flexibility with this setup and that's something where when you have a gaming headset what's that headset or mic or whatever you don't like it or you feel like it's time to upgrade that whole thing is gone hey and the sound quality isn't that great right now the gaming I don't get why gaming headsets aren't that great right now they've been around for a long time now another being Wireless like something has to give in the gaming headset realm I don't know what it is yet maybe I'll dive into that more but for now I'm kind of staying away from because of my experience so let me know what you guys use do you guys use a gaming headset or do you guys actually just go ahead and just buy a standalone setup where you have your headphones and your mic I know Zombie core I know you do bro so and he's one of the guys that just very just one of my subs that advocates this kind of setup and I totally agree with him this kind of setup will beat any gaming headset any day of the week alright so again let me know what you guys use down the comments below I'd love to hear what you guys used as always like share
