Astro Gaming A40 TR + MixAmp Pro Tr [amazon_link asins='B014F77FGA|B014F77FGA|B014F77FGA' template='PriceLink' store='own3d-de-headsets-21|own3d-en-headsets-20|own3d-uk-headsets-21' marketplace='DE|US|UK' link_id='3a17deff-2b9e-11e8-a4fb-3998bce88dc7']
The A40 TR from Astro Gaming has been specially developed for FPS gamers. It has an excellent sound system (stereo or surround sound) and offers many possibilities to modify the device. The microphone is also particularly outstanding, as it can transmit the voice clearly and explicitly. A little drawback is the price: With the MixAmp, which is necessary for the surround sound, the A40 TR is about 250€ and can quickly become even more expensive with additional extras.

HyperX Cloud Revolver [amazon_link asins='B01CZX6U3U|B01CIEBU54|B01CZX6U3U' template='PriceLink' store='own3d-de-headsets-21|own3d-en-headsets-20|own3d-uk-headsets-21' marketplace='DE|US|UK' link_id='746cbb63-2b9e-11e8-8580-6fccfb0ae5bf']
With the Revolver, HyperX has created a novelty. For the first time there is a headset specifically designed for FPS games. The device has minor weaknesses in other genres, but apart from that it only has advantages. Like the other HyperX models, it impresses with its wearing comfort, sound and especially voice quality. With about € 80 it is located in the mid-range price segment.

Audio-Technica ATH-AD700X [amazon_link asins='B009S332TQ|B009S332TQ|B009S332TQ' template='PriceLink' store='own3d-de-headsets-21|own3d-en-headsets-20|own3d-uk-headsets-21' marketplace='DE|US|UK' link_id='a037f96b-2b9e-11e8-b110-676354901673']
The Audio-Technica headset is clearly one of the best headset available on the FPS market for headsets, because it offers outstanding sound quality. Unfortunately, the gaming headset does not include a microphone, despite the quite high price of about 180€. However, the sound quality of the headphones will soon make you forget this little flaw.
