Headset for Overwatch and single player games? USD 500

Hello, everyone.

I’m looking for a closed-back headset for playing Overwatch and single-player games.

Unfortunately, where I live, it’s very noisy, both outside and inside the house.

I usually play at night, starting around 10 p.m.

My playstyle is 80% Overwatch and 20% story mode.

In my research, I came across the DT 700 PRO X and the HD660 closed-back. Any other recommendations?

My budget is around $500. I'm going to use the Fiio K11 as a DAC.

Hello, everyone.

I apologize in advance for my lack of knowledge. IEMs are something I’ve only recently started learning about.

I’ve had two TMJ surgeries, and because of that, I want to stop using traditional headphones. I’ve been experiencing frequent pain, so wearing something heavy is uncomfortable for me.

I’m looking for a comfortable pair of IEMs to use when I’m on the computer. I usually play for 3 hours a day, in the evening.

I rarely listen to music on headphones, except when things get chaotic here at home, or the neighbor is making a lot of noise.

In my research, I found several IEMs, but the one that caught my attention was the Alba. Apparently, it’s super comfortable and has a pleasant sound signature.

Can anyone tell me if they’re good for FPS games?

My gaming profile is 80% Overwatch and 20% single-player open-world games. Any recommendations besides the Alba?

My budget is around $300. My DAC is the Fiio K11.

I know that even the best headset in the world won’t make me the best player in the world or give me good aim. I just want something good that I like.

As for the kind of sound I like... well, I don't really know. I've been using the HS80 for four years, so I'm used to it.

I'd say I like to really feel the music—a fuller, more exciting sound. I don't know if that helps

Thank you very much

TL;DR: I'm looking for comfortable IEM for FPS and open-world games.

Hi, everyone.

I’m looking to buy my first pair of IEMs. I’ve done a lot of research, and the Alba caught my eye.

Does anyone know how they perform in FPS games? Right now, I play 80% Overwatch and 20% open-world games.

Thanks a lot!
