Frankly, the Sound BlasterX H6 is a no-brainer. Priced at just $80, it is a little less expensive than the bigger brother X7 (and honestly, it doesn’t look like you’re missing much). For that price, you get great audio performance in a very, very comfortable package. And it’s versatile enough to work with any platform – great if you switch gears from PC to PS4 to Xbox.

The Sound BlasterX H6 is a great option for a gamer who wants the 7.1 sound but wants to keep the price tag in the double digit range. Finding a higher quality headset for under a hundred bucks is going to be tough and the fact that this will work with everything makes it a great value. This is an ideal headset for someone who wants something that is a cut above average and offers some cool features like surround sound and scout mode.
