Best Semi Open Gaming Pc Headphones

These semi-open headphones are about the best for my money.  I use them for video editing when monitors are not available.

These headphones showed me there is indeed, a difference between closed back headphones and open back headphones. These , I think, are listed as semi-open back. I really like the sound. Arrived quickly and was well packaged.

I am still just a hobbyist, but it is not uncommon for me to use these several hours per night editing video. I bought these to replace a pair of JVC HA-RX700 headphones. I am not an audiophile by any means, but the sound quality is very good, and as far as I can tell comparable to the JVCs. At the same source volume level, the sound is noticeably softer on the AKGs, but that may just be because of the semi-open design. It is not an issue to just raise the source volume a bit to make up the volume difference, though. The main 3 reasons I replaced my JVCs were 1) the JVCs are pretty huge, 2) I liked the detachable cord feature on the AKGs (just the day before I did a job where I needed to monitor audio while shooting, and there were a couple times when it sure would have been handy to be able to disconnect myself from everything on the headphone side of the cable . . .), and 3) the AKGs were on sale for half their normal price. The AKGs are definitely lighter, more subtle to wear in public, and I do like the detachable cord feature. I'm not sure if the semi-open design (which will make it easier for people nearby to hear what you are hearing through the headphones) would be a problem for some people, but I think it will be fine for my purposes. Overall a very nice set of headphones, and I would recommend them.

Can't be more happy. Best pc I have build so far. Going forward all my builds will be tuf gaming

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been gaming for my whole life and this is the BEST monitor I’ve ever used. Can have multiple windows open at same time for multi tasking but also can see more details when I have just one screen open. The picture quality is very impressive and it runs incredibly smooth. It is very user friendly and not hard to set up at all. Basically plug and play. It also has less wires than my previous monitors making for less clutter. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great affordable gaming monitor.

These are some really good headphones. I use these primarily for PC gaming with voice chat. Audio in the headphones is very clear and has a good balance of bass & treble. Good mic as well; my buddy who I game with can hear me clearly. The cushions are also pretty comfortable. I’ve gamed several hours at a time while wearing glasses with minimal to no discomfort. The HyperX PC app is very intuitive. It helps control settings like mic monitoring (which I usually turn on) and equalizer and shows an accurate battery percentage. Battery life is crazy long. I been using these approx. a month off the initial charge, gaming around 20-30 hours a week and I still have about 60% charge.

I bought these headphones before Christmas and have been using them while gaming and listening to music on my PC. The sound is amazing and they are really comfortable even after using them for hours in a row. The noise canceling feature works great.

Best gaming headphones I’ve ever had. Been through 3 or 4 other headphones through the years. Sound quality is tremendous. Easy to set up and operate. Love the Bluetooth connection.

Saw these headphones listed as PC Magazine's Best for Affordable Studio Headphones, and I totally agree. I haven't used them for any studio stuff, but they're great for gaming and streaming. Very pleased with what you get for the price. Comfortable, great sound, and cool features (can plug into the left or right side, plug has a lock on it, comes with color bands to identify each chord, adjustable head band).

Best headphones I own.
