Hey GAF, as title says I'd like to get a headset for my PS4, because I started playing Hunt Showdown, and it's really needed for that game. I have never gamed with a headset before, always had 5.1 speaker system, but it's just not precise enough and it's disturbing for my friends to her the sound back when we're in a party.
Anyways, I'm not a big audiophile, so I have no high expectations, I just want it to be reasonably priced and be surround. I live in central EU so some suggestions might not be available in my country, but I'll take all the help I can.
I really don't want to spend more than 85-100 USD / 70-85 EUR. I don't care if it's wireless, audio jack or USB.
So most of my confusion comes from these terms of 7.1 virtual surround and the 3D Audio.
This far what I have found are the following:
Turtle Beach Recon 70, confused cause it says it supports 3D Audio, but I'm not sure if this is PS5 only?
Turtle Beach Recon 200, it is compatible with PS4-5, however it says that the surround is for only Xbox? But it's compatible with Dolby Atmos, so does that mean that Atmos supporting games are still surround with it on PS4?
MSI DS502, it says Enhanced Virtual 7.1 Surround Sound, but is this only for PC or also consoles? The specs says it is compatible with PC, Mac, PS5™, PS4™ but are also the functions?
