Corsair HS35

The Corsair HS35 are okay for wired gaming. The lightweight, comfortable design is suitable for long gaming sessions, especially thanks to the breathable mesh padding. However, the cluttered sound profile can make in-game music sound muddy and the microphone isn't much to write home about. That said, it can still be an alright option if you're on a budget.
