Hello, Wanted to share that I got RIG 800 HD and I’m very happy with it. The only downside is that you can distance yourself from your laptop for up to 10 meters, which is very low. And, as in case of most headphones, the mic needs some tweaking in Windows, otherwise nobody will hear you, and you might also hear yourself. The mic is also quite sensitive, so I don’t recommend touching it too much. As for the battery - it lasts long even on the low energy. Recharging doesn’t take long, and you can also use them while recharging. Just be aware that the cable that comes with it is pretty short. The sound is good, yet I recommend to use FXsound utility, or even DA license, coz it is worth it. Personally I love tremble, basses and overall true immersion, whether it is a movie or a game. The stand for it, which is also a recharging station, isn’t very heavy and it fits perfectly. It took me some months to choose new headphones. Also thanks to you, Techne, I learned a lot about headphones.
The transition to parenting killed me in my head I was like "Waaaait omg This guy is literally everyones favourite and coolest uncle in the family meet" WOAH WHILE WRITING THIS IT HIT ME, youre like Jack Black XD both of you are so awesome loll
Unfortunately, I haven't had much luck with Wicked Cushions. Bought a headband/cushion combo for my Audeze Maxwells on Amazon, ended up getting two headbands (one opened up and used) and no cushions even though the outside of the sleeve said "Ear Cushions". So those got returned. In the meantime, I also ordered a set of cushions for my Turtle Beach Stealth Pros. Got them on. They looked good, but man I just wasn't impressed with the comfort. Compared to the stock pads, they were were a downgrade for ne personally in the comfortablity department. They also felt much warmer around the ears than the stock pads, as well as giving me some mild irritation around the ears as well. And don't get me started on the sound. The Wicked Cushions thinned out the sound way too much. Bass was cut in half and they sounded way more tinny & airey. Put the stocks back on and they felt like a dream compared to the wicked cushions. Bass was back. Sound was solid. Way cooler and far more comfortable. So they all got returned. But this was just my personal experience with them. Comfort and wearability is always subjective from person to person. And I am certainly not trying to dissuade anyone from buying them. Just giving my personal experience with them. Bummer though because I did like the looks of them and I really wanted them to work out for me. But comfort comes first. Maybe they will drop some different ones in the future I can give another crack at. But I still enjoy the vids!
Follow up question for a different headset 🎧Does WC make ear pads for Turtle Beach 700 Gen 3? I’m so bummed because I don’t see any for them on the WC web site or Amazon.
if they don't exist on the website.. they probably don't exist lol. Could always reach out to WC to ask as they might be some sort generic pad mount that works for a specific pad.
What wireless headset for PC do u recommend that is bass heavy good audio and doesn't weight to much.Currently using Steelseries series Arctis Nova Pro wireless on PC and sometimes my Audeze Maxwell on Xbox.The only headset I think that would be good is the Astro A50X
Great content as ever took your advice on the Epos H3 headphones and as you described them they are fricking awesome both sound and comfort.If ever I need something for gaming I come to your channel if you think it is good I will invest in it,if you say hmmm I don't recommend them I don't buy them.
Unfortunately, this model isn't compatible with Xbox. Our Acid Camo collab with Wicked Cushions is only for our HS model, which is compatible with PlayStation, PC, Nintendo Switch, and mobile devices. You'll need an HX model for compatibility with Xbox
WE COULDN'T DO THIS WITHOUT YOUR HELP TECHNE

Thank you Techne 👏🏻👏🏽👏🏿 Awesome video as always. You were the one who turned me on to Wicked Cushions & I have put them on every headset since 🎧

Never heard of Wicked Cushions until your channel, and now I wont buy headphones unless Wicked makes cushions for them!
Watching and listening to this with my wicked cushions on the arctis nova pros. Super cool and comfortable :)
Awesome review and vid!!!

Bro great video man, if your a sellout enjoy it you deserve it, keeps having fun ignore what others said.
Cool headset!
Will you also be reviewing the HyperX Cloud MIX Buds 2?
Wish they would do something for the beyer mmx 200s. Cant find good earpads anywhere for them and it's a quality headset that really needs them

Does this work on xbox?
The headset does and if you use it with Dolby Atmos it’s nice

Hi Techne, can you do a Sony inzone gaming buds vs SteelSeries Arctis Buds video?
How about some wicked earbuds cushions?
They will eventually come
I was just talking with them about that 😉
