Notable mentions

Corsair Virtuoso RGB Wireless. A decent headset with an excellent build quality and design. However, it lacks wireless support on the Xbox One which won't be as ideal for Xbox gamers.

Turtle Beach Elite Pro 2 SuperAmp: A decent gaming headset with a wired DAC that gives you a few more control options and Bluetooth connectivity with your phone. Slight issues in the software and not the best value to performance ratio.

HyperX Cloud 2/Cloud II: A well-built wired gaming headset that will work with both consoles. Good comfort and a durable design, but not as many features as the other mid-range picks.

Astro A20 Wireless: Decent gaming headphones that perform fairly well overall. Worth considering if you like the design of the Astro A50 but find them too expensive.

Astro A10: A wired alternative to the A20. Good build quality, but the wired design is a bit less convenient.

Plantronics RIG 800LX Wireless: Good gaming headphones that sound great at lower volumes, but distort heavily in the bass range at higher volumes.
