So true tho
legit
Yeah buddy

The Macca's story about stealing the coconut oil and turning the car park into a drift arena had me laughing out loud at 1:30 am mate 🤣🤣🤣
Definitely the best mic test story
he said cooking oil i think
For me it was 2 AM LOL
What part
My Dad is a musician so I game with a borrowed shure stage mic and my own audiophile headphones, all plugged in to a behringer desk. I might suck at gaming but boy do I sound amazing doing it
You can tell how bad you are at games just by the sound
Technically this is the best option. Your favorite headphones with a separate mic. Usually just a Mod Mic you can stick on your headphones
I remember when my mic stopped working, so I borrowed my dad's Neumann and some extra equipment so I could use it with my laptop. Def overkill
@@Dr.Spatula I love over kill I got a blue yeti audio technica and a dac running off my laptop for discord calls and spotify (meant blue yeti mic and audio technica headphones)
@@ilikebreadcrumbs8149 I just have a pair of A50s because it also works with my series x, without issue, if I ever use it. Otherwise I have HDMI from PC to TV, optical from TV to A50 station, optical from A50 station to 7.1. Wish I knew why my 7.1 goes 2 seconds out of sync and staticy over time with with optical...

@@Error-33 It's often just a matter of sliding the volume up on the little controller.
Pumciusz that is still bad design...
@@jellepetje I know. But I'm just saying that you can correct that and not have any problems. Just lower the audio in the game or windows.
I own a pair of Krakens, and always thought this was an issue with my particular headset. For the untrained ear it’s only noticeable at lower volumes, but still there
Normal People: “This is a Mic Test”
DankPods: “So I got fired from McDonald’s for stealing all the Cooking Oil”
It's the Aussie instincts taking over
reminds me a friend of mine (a girl) mic testing once we were recording a school video: "Nice to meet you, I'm CARLOS and the hormone therapy is going well"
*cooking oil
I don't think maccas is fancy enough for that coconut business
COOKING OIL
Is this guy secretly an American? The oil stealing and all...
HyperXs always have a very distinctive microphone sound, you can usually immediately tell someone is using them by their microphone sound. Dunkey uses them in his gameplay segments and you can always tell. They have that specific compressed feeling.
Yeah the mics are pretty ass and also tend to just break after a while but I’ve had a pair for like 4 years and they still sound great
I bought my Cloud II's like a year and a half ago because of you, and after living in some $20(us) Chinese bootleg headphones for years, I put on the Cloud II's and I almost cried because of how big the difference was. You brought me out of the slums and I am very grateful.
Cloud II's are great, but if you want that experience again then some nice 150-300 dollar open backs can do it again. Just be careful, there's no going back.
@@Shmozone got dt770's instead
@@Pragmer Also a great choice
@@Pragmer are they nice? 😁
@@AceArata Which ones? Hyper's or the 770's? Either way they're both good. The one thing I will say is, upgrade to FLACs. Getting FLACs was like unlocking a secret hidden layer of my hyper's and the 770s don't sound right without them imo.
The only tech reviewer that I can think of that executes the products he’s reviewing via electric chair if they deserve it

i use the hyper x cloud ii wireless headphones and they are wonderful. i love them so much, so comfy 10/10 would buy again and recommend. but the one thing is the wireless ones are like 140, which is pretty decent for bluetooth headphones but its not really budget.
I'm using the wired version of the hyperx cloud ii, and I agree, they're awesome. The only downside is that the headband is hard to replace, if you aren't a skilled technician, compared to the earpads. Otherwise, it's a great headphone for its value.
@@christianabad9982 i think they sounded weird at first (mainly cause i have the steelseires arctis 5 and i screwed with the eq)
im using the wireless ones as well, they are so worth it
I would reccomend SteelSeries 7P+ my personal ones 10/10 would buy again $150 Not Budget at all
I upgraded from my old Corsair headphones to the Cloud 2 Wireless, and they are really nice. Nice and comfortable, good audio quality, good battery life, even the mic is decent (most in built mic's aren't that good as they want you to go external). I got mine on sale for £100, though the wired version is under £50.

I have a pair of Steelseries Arctis 3 bluetooth, and I think the headband is pretty comfy. I replaced the earpads with the ones they sell for the Arctis Pro headset, and those have much more substance and support. I can wear them for hours without issue, although my ears do start to get fatigued where my glasses come through, but if I didn't wear glasses, it wouldn't be an issue.
It's funny how when you hear the HD 600s at first in the audio test you think "yeah that sound is ok" and then you listen to the other headphones and realise why the HD 600s are so expensive

Found this video way late, but this is making me happy with my choice in headset (exactly the HyperX you showed but the red is silver instead). Got them for Christmas about 2 years ago and still going strong, with just a little bit of warpage on the mic line from fiddling with it so much. The mic does pop on the receiving end if you play with it, but otherwise it's quite good. I can wear them basically all day, and they only ever feel uncomfortable if I put on glasses with them. Also, the cable is long as all hell and just heavy enough to feel it lift, so I never get the infamous cord yank when standing up.
I have been using "gaming" headsets for 20 years, none lasted longer than 2 years. I am now using a Philips SHP9500 with mic attachment. So far (nearly a year) lasted longer than my last 2 headsets, and was easier to take off the pads and clean unlike nearly all the others, and the pads seem to be holding up better. I hope they last and don't deteriorate.
I just have a rough history with any headphones. The only ones that have lasted me years are the really bazaar Sony HW700s that I even got used. There a weird wireless headphones designed to be used with your HDMI output from your device and a box that sends a wifi signal to it from the box. It's really weird but has lasted nearly 10 years now.
Otherwise I go through headphones constantly. I've gone through 2 sets of Ether CX (one had the connection port fall out, one the headband somehow snapped), one one AEON Flow 2 (blew it up as I was having temporary hearing loss and thought the headphones were bugging out), Koss ESP 95X (channel imbalance like most electro stats get, could get them fixed with the lifetime warranty but don't think it's worth fixing them), Triton gaming headphones (charge port failed), and ATH MSR7 (hinge broke off). All of those in the last 10 years. I'm lucky if my set lasts over a year no matter the brand.
Hell even earbuds are a mess. I've had 3 sets of Sony WF-1000 XM4 and one had a catastrophic failure with the battery and got a warranty replacement, and the other two both have a channel imbalance that doesn't seem to be fixable. And I also had two sets of Tin T2s fail with the wire connection terminal wearing out. Not the 3.5mm, the small one at the ends of the buds.
Yeah I made the switch a bit ago. On PC I switched to an audio interface and XLR mic and Koss PRODJ200, then on XBox same headphones with a Modmic-style on-line boom mic. I swap back to my Logitech gaming headphones every now and then just to remember the good ole days and I always hate it.
Every time I see the HD600’s balance graph it fills me with serenity and comfort
The feeling of reaching TRUE BALANCE.

I have the kraken x lite, and I gotta admit, installing the software for being able to have 7.1 surround was annoying at first, but the advantages by doing that is that my laptop as a whole, can now have 7.1 surround active with or with the headphones, I can even use other set of headphones and it still works (only downside is that wireless devices will not apply to that function, only connected directly to the computer)

The Razer surround stuff is actually entirely software, they just provide a pre-calibrated set of settings for their models of headphones. You can actually use it with any other headphones, but you might need to adjust the settings a bit for it to work well.
I was going to comment about this, Razer's software is free for the most part but when paired with their headphones (that's why they need activation code stuff) it unlocks more features and config options

Honestly, I have a set of headphones very similar to the no-name blue things, with blue LEDs too. I actually like the peripheral blue light because I wear glasses and it gives me that feeling of having a sci-fi heads up display. They're okay in terms of quality but I have *very* little experience with products of actual good quality.

IF YOU USE THEM, CHANGE. You will feel like you have come out of the slums to a bustling city with the difference. I personally had a no name 10$ headset. Worked fine for 5 years then in one of dankpod's vids, they blew the right ear while listening to scarlet fire. I upgraded to HyperX Cloud 2 wireless and now I actually listen to music with appreciation to the sound. I was literally in shock for probably the first 5 days using them. I did not know such clarity existed in headphones and thought that I had gotten a steal. (note: I got my Cloud 2 wireless in a garage sale, in the shipping bag, for 40 bucks US, box packed. Think I got a miracle :D )
I ended up buying the HyperX with the gunmetal grey band rather than red. I am using equaliser apo to boost the mic volume, works perfectly! Thanks for the video/advice!

Today I learned I'm not hard of hearing in my left ear, I just have a razer kraken.
I’m with you on that one, but not too long ago was messing with the little volume adjuster and squeezed the flat sides of it and BOOM! The left side came to life!!!!! It gets weak here and there but now I just give it a little squeeze or a tap and right back to life. I dont like that I have to do that little trick but hey it works.
@@Lowpshift wich model ? is that kraken
@@aymaneabdelkebirhissayni8917 yes the green kraken.
@@Lowpshift Tournament edition or just normal 7.1 2019 model
@@aymaneabdelkebirhissayni8917 just the normal model.
ive had 2 sets of astros over a period of like 8-9 years. love em and tried many others in similar price ranges and they are still my go to. yes the rubber tends to start flaking in like 3 years. hypers are the way to go if money is a concern
Damn this guy is so informative but yet so funny. you are amazing Dankpods :)
I want an indie game where you wander in an aussie man’s house, find audio logs and they are DankPods’s random mic test lines from this video.
Bethesda.......
*Me seeing the blue $25 gaming headphones I got for my two boys*
Meh. They do just fine for a 9 and 12 year old. 🤣🤣
Makes good headphones sound even better too 👌
Can you do a video about JBL E45 bt please
@@yusufismail6249 I tried the e55 and the bass felt like it was punching into my ears.
But I'll tell they're super comfortable so you don't need to worry about that
Mohanad the absolute unit thanks for the feed back my e45 is getting old so I’ll buy the e55 and I’ll sub to you
If you are going to buy some cheap headphones I would recommend the HunterSpider V4 they are about 20-25 USD on eBay. I use them, and they are wonderful. (For the price)
Went through two pairs of those Hyper X Cloud II's, also had to buy extra mics since they kept crapping out. I remember the audio quality being solid but I wanted better build quality so got those Audio Technica with a boom arm mic.
Ive been using the Cloud 2’s for a while, and hearing that I wasn’t alone in thinking they sound really good was really nice, haha
I love that you are expanding outside of only Ipod content, and I think you should do more stuff like this in the future. I think your experience and perspective as a musician leads to you giving very informative yet concise explanations and reviews, whereas your personality makes everything a joy as always. Great video, it has genuinely give me some new perspective for picking out future gaming headsets and what I should look for.
The headphone recording comparison was stellar! Probably the best actual review of headphones I've experienced. Frequency response graphs are genuinely great, but sometimes it's like listening to somebody describe the Mona Lisa. I just wanna *see*! The differences in response and signature between all of those headsets came through very well, and clearly put their capabilities on display.
Also, there is a practical reason to have a slightly boofy mic on a gaming headset; it suppresses keyboard clacks (clacky shiny R-G-B keyboards, so hot right now).
Honestly I just subscribed for the laughs, so this is kinda boggling my mind right now.
If you like headphone sounddemos look for oluvs gadgets on yt
Never tried OCM reviews or Jimsroom ? Best reviews ever
I just use my blue toot headphones
random_n hey there is a reason for the loud keyboards I assume you know but just in case you don’t, they are mechanical keyboards with provides better speed and performance
I would recommend the old school Steelseries Siberia V2, they were amazing. And cheap.
Creative Fatal1ty line-up still deserves a shout, even though they are becoming rarer.
And one entire brand you missed out on is Logitech, they have some good ones.
Bought my V2 in 2016, when they had already stopped production. Good sound, super comfortable. Mic was meh and died after 3 years, the rest is still going strong except the head cushion thing fell off. Got it repaired, but that didn't last very long, so now I just put it on separately lol
@@georgiykireev9678 Mine's cable died but it was going strong up until then, wonder if I could get it fixed as the cable was not removable
8:58 I laughed my ass off because that sounded like a sneeze and it was so funny the way you done it, that was amazing
I love those intermission stories when testing the mics

@Thorin Ong lol
My daily driver is the ATH-M50x with a Mod Mic attachment and it’s super solid, especially the Mod Mic. Definitely gonna need aftermarket ear covers for the M50s as they’re not too good for long term wear.
When you record the voice recordings. Idk why I laugh every time the little conversations you have with yourself lol 😂
I really appreciate having the ability to hear each set compared to a good "base level" set, especially with the graph so i can listen and point out what part I can hear and what gets toned down. Even though it still comes through my speakers, with YT compression its the COMPARISON that matters the most in learning mate. Top Stuff! PS Love the Frank cameo's at the end of each one
Same, though I'd want dank to play the same parts of the song in the comparison between the headphones. Also the ears make me think of ASMR artists though I've head worse whispering in my ears then this lovely ausie man.

as someone whos actually in the process of getting a new pair of headphones from razer as reimbursement for my old ones breaking, the whole razer synapse thing is so relateable
"Good for games"
I actually read "Good for James".
We all know that if it's good for James, it's definitely good.
it's great for me

I recently sold my Hyper Cloud X Headset to buy Sony monitors and Grado 80 series.
Gotta say, way happier.
does sony even make monitor or tvs anymore?
@@bland9876 yes
First Name Last Name i think he meant studio monitors headphones, or also might be IEM
I went from some senns to the hyper back to some senns. Never again. Broke so quick too
@@ntrDRUMMER firstly my comment was kind of stupid because I realized that he could have been talking about something old anyways like on ebay
Secondly I just remember that I heard Sony was stopping making a lot of their other stuff that's not game systems (like phones and tablets and laptops etc) so I was thinking of that.
Well, good to see that the hydrafx headphones i bought for christmas werent a waste.
I recently bought the HyperX Cloud 2's and I gotta say, you might not like how they fit and sound out of the box. For me they sounded quite dead and muddy but that can be fixed by using an EQ like Equalizer APO on windows to get a more fun V shaped curve going(or whatever else you like, just be mindful of the gain so they don't clip). As for the fit, if you have a head large enough to have to fully extend the headset, you might find it really uncomfortable at first but it does get better the more you wear it. The pads are a massive pain to change and the spare ones are only good as spares while you wait for new leather ones(the spare ones make the sound worse and let all the noise in because they can't seal). The 7.1 surround mode is fun to mess around with but I can't speak to its accuracy in competitive games.
Overall, comfort wise they're no match for my old Cougar Phontums but sound wise (with an eq on both) the cloud 2s do sound slightly better, they let very little noise in, the 7.1 surround is a fun bonus and you might have an actual chance of finding replacement pads for them, unlike the Phontums.
