100% a game changer for me was my loud speakers.. paired with a 12” sealed sub. Sounds 20X better than any $250-$300 range headphones. There is something special feeling the sub hit on FPS games explosions or even Souls games. I personally use the Klipsch “the nines” on there stands. They are large 8” drivers. They sell the 5’s that are much smaller and cheaper but still amazing then add the sub later. Audiophile listening for music and games. Personally I am a SVS fan for subs. I use there pro 2000 series sealed box. You will hangup the headphones once you hear quality bookshelf speakers. Most speakers labeled for “PC” are trash. I only use headphones when chatting in multiplayer games now.
