Good Wired Gaming Headphones

Still like my wired headphones

I use it to connect my wired headphones to my new iPhone. Works great!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent headphones. However a wired version would be good to have. No over the ear wired headsets unless is for gaming are available.

I bought this for my son on his birthday. We’ve had other gaming headphones that I though we’re good, But when I used them ... wow it was superior sound. I might buy a set for me now.

They turned my wired headphones into wireless and work great.

If you don't have wireless headphones yet, you will need this to use wired headphones with your ipad. Works fine.

Great as Bluetooth headphones, over the ear wired headphones and noise cancelling.

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.

But, not just for gaming. The battery life is very good and matches the advertised 80 hrs. This is a rare close back planar that sounds good. Planar headphones tend to do poorly when they're made as close backs. The default sound is good for games and music. Details are good and the headphone isn't tuned with bloated bass or grating treble like some gaming headphones.

The Kross SB40 headphones are excellent for gaming, zooming and much more. As an instructor it’s important to have good equipment to rely on. These are one of the best with fantastic sound.
