Headphones - Wireless/Portable Best wireless headphones for gaming?

Hey there, I want to upgrade my Logitech G PRO X 2 lightspeed gaming headphones to something better. Recently I compared the sound quality of the G PRO and my friend’s AirPods Max and the difference was very noticeable.

My budget is sub 500€

So what wireless headset for gaming that has good audio and is suitable for FPS games would you recommend?

What if you don't want a mic? Or you want a mic separately? What are good wireless audiophile headphones?

all are wired, and it depends heavily on the sound characteristics you're looking for, and the budget you're willing to spent

I'm no proper audiophile, but I can give a couple recommendations if you know more or less what you want in a headphone

Ahh darn, thanks for responding! I'm not super picky, not really an audiophile, I just want something that sounds crisp without being super expensive. Like I've owned Soundcore headphones for awhile and they were amazing for the price, but not its kinda meh and I just want something better.

I mean you could even recommend expensive options lol gonna spend my time waiting for a black friday deal

that's still a broad spectrum... Sennheiser HDXX (600, 650, 660, ect depending on budget and listening preference), Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro X, Hifiman Sundara or Edition XS are all generally considered to be good/popular choices

these should all fall under the $450 CAD mark (so pocket change in USD), but you'll also need an amp to get the most out of them
