In games, this means being able to tell how far away the person shooting at you from behind your left shoulder is, for example. One of the most important aspects of sound quality for gaming headsets is a large soundstage, which allows audio that sounds as if it’s coming from a specific location in a three-dimensional space rather than presenting as a single, flat wall of sound. Sound quality: Gaming headsets rarely sound as detailed as comparably priced headphones, but they should still be clear and accurate, with no frequency range overpowering another.We also looked for headsets that accommodated a wide range of heads and ear sizes. The headband design should distribute the headset’s weight so it doesn’t dig into the top of your head, the cups shouldn’t make your ears too hot, and the headset shouldn’t pinch or let too much sound leak out if you wear glasses. A good headset doesn’t clamp too tight on your head or jaw, but it shouldn’t slip off your head, either. Comfort: A gaming headset should be comfortable to wear for hours.
