The Corsair HS80 Max has almost everything you could want in a gaming headset for an enjoyable gaming session -- clear high-resolution audio, a comfortable and stylish design, and good cross-platform compatibility.
For $140 I could see it. SoundID as well sounds interesting and would not only save someone the hassle of finding a good EQ preset but actually be better in theory.
I’d note there’s definitely other wireless headsets with comparable battery life and good reputations. Turtle beach is a good example and I tried the stealth 700 gen2 max for a few weeks.
It did everything better than the HS80s except the mic but it also cost $200, although I paid $140. Huh… makes me suspicious about all these MSRPs honestly.
