So the audio section is pretty dead so I figured I would post since here since this is not a question about any specific model. So I got a BlackShark for free when I purchased some Mercury White peripherals a while back and now I'm looking for an upgrade. The BlackShark is...well kinda awful to be honest. The mic quality is good but the ear cups get warm quick, sound isolation is kinda non existent, and the sound quality on general is poor. Even with EQ adjustments the bass still over powers the mids and highs which always sound muffled. I was looking at the hierarchy of Razer headsets and was wondering what is good and what isn't quality wise. The BlackShark had an MSRP of 120 USD I think so was that headset just a fluke or are Razer headsets in the $100ish range still that bad? My budget entirely depends on the aspect of diminishing returns as I'm looking at a headset for gaming and not media consumption.

The only headset with cooling gel are nari essential in this price but if you can spend little more and get regular Nari headset you can have both great sound and cooling earcaps.
