#134 Razer BlackShark V2 X: $34.99 Amazon eBay
Pros: A built-in microphone makes it usable for voice chat without a separate headset. The 32 ohm impedance suits PC, console and phone outputs with no amp needed, and the closed back keeps game audio from leaking into the room. At 240 g with 50 mm drivers it is a straightforward wired gaming option at a low price.
Cons: Crinacle’s measurement gives a Harman score of just 1, so the tonal balance is a long way from what most listeners prefer. The response is uneven, with a deviation of about 5.4 dB and a warm tilt, which tends to cloud vocals and detail in music. It is better suited to casual gaming and chat than to critical listening.
