What are the best headsets for PS5 that actually make the 3D audio feel real without being super uncomfortable? i been looking at the official Pulse 3D one since its made by sony but honestly the ear cups look kinda small and i have bigger ears so im worried about them hurting after an hour. then i saw the arctis nova 7p mentioned everywhere but people in some subreddits keep saying the hinges snap after a few months. i got about 150 bucks to spend and i really need something with good noise isolation because my roommate is always shouting in the next room while im trying to play elden ring. should i just stick with a wired set or is the wireless tech worth the extra cash?

Over the years, Ive found these to be the most reliable alternatives:
Console handles 3D audio anyway, so just get HyperX Cloud III Wireless Gaming Headset.
Late to the party but this whole thread is 💯. Glad I found it.
