What's been your favourite headset for gaming so far? (self.pcgaming)

Am looking for a new pair of headphones, mostly for gaming. The two aspects I care mostly about are comfort and good audio. Therefore wondering about people's recommendations and experiences with headphones. What's been your best headphones so far and why?

I miss my Siberia Icemats. Those things were great.

I had a Plantronics RIG I won in a drawing I didn't even know I was entered in, but it wasn't that comfortable. One of those over the ear styles, but the cups were small so it just squeezed your ears instead of sit comfortably around them. But other than that, they were pretty amazing. Even came with a DAC.

Currently I have a Sony WH-XB910N but it's just headphones. It does technically have a mic for using handsfree with a phone, but even though it shows up on PC as an input device, it doesn't actually pick anything up so I can't use it as a headset when gaming ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ
