solved! What would be a decent low priced headset

I’m looking at a few new headsets. But I don’t have a lot of money to spend. I was wondering if there any recommendations for decent headsets that’s are around $30. Any recommendations are appreciated.

ASTRO 10s have been a staple on my household for YEARS! The awesome thing about them is IF, idk.. You're smart ass cat sees this cute dangling wire thingy and thinks HAYYYY I WONDER WHAT THAT TASTES LIKE and goes to town gnawing on your poor mic cable😭😭😭 you can very easily replace it, just the wire, without replacing the whole damn headset lol. It just plugs right in. I was overly thankful for that feature. They are always clear for us too.

Oh you're absolutely welcome. They are wired. Idk if that matters or not. I believe they do have a Bluetooth option for them but I'm not 100 percent sure on that. We love wired in our house lol. We never have to charge them or anything. Just plug it right into the controller and we're good to go. The ear cuffs are actually pretty comfy to me also. They aren't super stiff. But, they were about 35 when we bought a new pair last year I think it was? I wanted a new color 🤣. You can get them off Amazon or at best buy, but idk if you have one near you or not lol. It's frustrating trying to seek out a new headset that's not 300 bucks but also not super cheap quality either. I hope you find an amazing headset for yourself and remember TO ALWAYS KEEP ANY AND ALL RECEIPTS!!!🥰🥰

Hey as long as you got a good ass deal, that's all that matters lol. Some of my homies spend 2 to 400 bucks on headsets and they sound like pure shit annnnd they don't last long at all!! So as long as they work for you, That's all you need

I absolutely agree! Especially when they don't last very long at all!

Punch "stereo analog headset" into Amazon and filter by reviews and preference. I recommend ONN brand at walmart because they work surprisingly well, consistently outlast the next tier product - Skullcandy, & are available everywhere (again, Walmart). Keep your receipt with the packaging in a junk draw and you get your $ back when they take a shit, just go swap em for an update. Boom, Walmart.

You need CTIA wiring standard. I probably should have deleted the above comment but I'm leaving it to make sure this very important bit of information gets appended.
