Currently using a pair of Astro A50 gen 4s, but they're old and having some connection/battery issues. I know Astros aren't perfect, but they have the perfect set of features I want. Just wanted to see if there are any cheaper alternatives with the same features before dropping another $300 on a new pair. Doesn't necessarily have to be a gaming headset.

Features I'm looking for:

-Mic monitoring. Mic quality is not important at all as long as the monitoring itself sounds good and adjusts with volume. I use an external mic to record/talk to others anyway.

-Wireless with minimal delay.

-Satisfactory audio/directional audio. I'm by no means an audiophile but something that sounds at least comparable to the a50s and lets me distinguish the direction of footsteps in games will suffice.

-Battery life that preferably lasts the day.

-Not a necessity, but a mic the flips up like the a50s or can be removed is a nice touch.

-Preferably a price of around $200 or less since anymore and I might as well just go with the astros.

Thank you!
