    There’s plenty of ease of use with headphones though, I got a pair of sennheiser gaming headphones and flipping up to mute is convenient.

      yeah tbh I don’t think the comparison to gaming chairs is 100% there. Everyone can benefit from a better office chair, but most people can’t perceive the audio difference between a gaming headset vs dedicated audiophile headphones + dedicated mic. While it may be true that it sounds better, it’s just not worth the extra hassle for most people. I have a wireless Arctis headset and the ease of use is unreal.

        Yeah. For a while I thought about upgrading to a desk mic and semi open headphones, but after looking at my desk, yeah, having a mic in front of me would be hella uncomfortable. Not to mention, I’d probably knock it over accidentally and fuck it up within a month.

          Have you looked at boom arms? They reach up and over and won’t get in the way of your hands/arms.

            Hm, I hadn’t thought of that possibility, honestly. I’ll look into it, thanks!

          I had a dedicated standing mic that had to be put almost behind my screen because of space. Due to this everyone always was able to hear my keyboard and mouse sounds. Got a gaming headset from Teufel Zola and people already mentioned i sound way better than before
