Very good share.noted & appreciated

Haiz... my 5 yr old white PS Gold wireless is dying on me

First the skin breaking apart, getting white flakes all over my ear and hair whenever I use it, so had to peel them all off

Then the folding hinge broke in half, used superglue to glue them back, now it's not foldable

and recently the batt is behaving weirdly, few occasion when plugged in wasn't charging
and the batt life is getting worse, now full charge only can last me about 3 hours of gaming before flashing red

last few use I experience some audio drop as well, I think it's time I buried this baby for good


Still contemplating to go back to Sony PS Gold/Platinum wireless or not, since the current one is giving me lots of issue, but their sound quality is great, and cheapest among the PS4 wireless headsets
I've heard some owners of the new PS Gold headset that's non-foldable also snapped in half in the middle? which I doubt fixable by superglue...

the rest of good wireless headset also kinda expensive
eyeing Arctis 7, which got very all round reviews, but cost around RM700 locally

tempted to get Razer Nari wireless last March but after read some negative review I go for hyperX cloud revolver s. it's wired but also support 7.1 dolby surround using usb port. after tested it it works the same as sony platinum headset which only virtual surround. for pc the dolby works. today i'm getting creative sound blasterX g6 dac. still wired tho

had one Razer wireless from my X360 days, had some bad experience with it, especially the batt life, which is piss poor, and their poor support as well
anyway, won't be getting another Razer stuffs from them

if I have a man cave, I'll go for wired, but unfortunately my setup doesn't allow it
so have no choice to stick to wireless

was looking at Steelseries Arctis 7
but damn! local seller are selling damn expensive, all RM700+ onward!
very tempted to import from Amazon, which will cost me around RM550+ only
but then Sony PS Gold is RM400, almost half the price of local Arctis 7
haiz... the dilemma

lucky my man cave is my bedroom plus i'm using gaming monitor for my ps4, pc n switch so wired is ok for me

Understand that ketam now a days very strict. Audio equipment import is 15% duty + 6% SST. So is that RM550+ inclusive of everything?

it's actually USD151 inclusive of shipping & "ketam" clearance
that's around RM620 by current exchange rate

since I still have some Amazon store credits, mine will come to around RM550

Think I'll hold till Amazon Prime member sales day in July, usually they have massive discount

I'll use my other BT headphone with TV for the time being then

5 years is about the time those PU leather starts to break and battery life degrade so don't feel bad. i think you already got your investment worth la.

As for me = i am actually using the Razer Thresher ultimate - awesome so far , no issues. optical out from ps4 straight to the receiver and loving it. I was supposed to get the NARI ultimate but it wasn't released yet in MY last year...lol...

I'm using the original 1st Gen Sony wireless 7.1 headset, pleather peeling off like crazy.

yeah, that's one of the reason I hesitant to get another set of headset with faux leather, all of my headsets using faux leather will start peeling off after a few years

I've seen replacement for the ear pads at aliexpress. But they don't have any replacement for the headband, hence it's not gonna make any difference.

For the headband, I use those badminton wrapping tape (the ones we use to wrap the handle of rackets).
Works pretty well on my Audio Technica M50.

maybe ts can try this too. looks good from the review tho. plus the earcup looks comfortable for long gaming session

very very difficult to find locally
no official local support also
warranty claim will be risky tho

hahaha yeah too bad still not in MY market yet. but it looks pretty good from the review.

i thought gamers hideout is bringing this brand in

dunno about GH, but the brand presence is here
but not the model

a lot of brands didn't bring in their high end premium model
makes it very hard for us to source for it locally

Anyway, anyone tried Logitech G933 before?

it's a lot more easier to find compared to other brand
online reviews also not too bad

that one doesnt work with ps4 right ? if im not mistaken you dont get the 5.1

wondered why nobody here suggested sennheiser
