Astros is 300$ and not a fan of the base station setup plus no bluetooth. Audeze is again 300$ and with shipping and customs coming to 500$ via Amazon.com which is well beyond my budget.
Have HyperX Alpha so want to get something different, something better.
Unfortunately, nobody is coming from US anytime soon. Plus there won't be any warranty which gives me pause as well.
Really wish we had a wider range of gaming headsets sold in India which weren't cheap and wired.
Received the Arctics 9x from Amazon.in for 19k after cashback. It is comfortable and sounds good and has direct Xbox connection without a dongle which works well. Bluetooth works as advertised and it is great to feed audio from your phone to the headset in between loading screens and to take calls while gaming. And the two year warranty in India is a bonus.
Considering the fact that the Arctics 7p (officially sold by Amazon) also went on deal for 20k while being 150$ at retail in US, paying 19k for the 9x which is 200$ at retail in US feels like a great deal.
So far so good, will continue to use it for a week or so before I make up my mind on keeping it. 19-20k still feels like a bit much to spend on a gaming headset
Any Arctics owners in here who have done some EQ customisation on the Steeelseries Engine App. Trying to get the perfect EQ for Warzone.
