When I'm gaming I really don't like any distractions whatsoever. I've been searching for a headset that properly noise cancels but never found the right one. I decided to take a chance on these and see how they work out.Now my room is right next to our backyard, so if anyone is out there making even the tiniest grunt, I can hear it easily. The day this headset arrived our backyard was a particular mess full of overgrown vegetation and grass. I remember putting on this headset and gaming for about 2-3 hours straight. After my gaming session, I looked out my window to see our entire yard majestic looking and devoid of any of the overgrown vegetation I saw a few hours prior. But how??? If someone was out there doing yard work, no way I would have missed that. Well, thanks to this headset, I did! The noise canceling quality on them is incredible and I am finally free of any external noise no matter if it's yardwork, people talking loudly on their phones, or chaotic neighborhood parties.The audio quality is very good too and the headset feels extremely comfortable on my head. I could easily have this on for several hours without wanting to take it off. I know they're pricey but they're certainly worth every penny.
