How to choose a gaming headphoneWe understand the differences between regular and gaming headphones, tell you how to approach the choice of a headset wisely
Model overview based on user reviews  
The REAL-EL GDX-8000 headphones offer a mixed experience for users. The microphone is frequently praised as excellent, with good build quality and noise isolation. However, the headphones are described as heavy and uncomfortable, with some users experiencing sound issues such as a strange echo effect and lack of bass, particularly in gaming scenarios. The virtual 7.1 sound feature does not seem to enhance the experience for everyone, leading to difficulties in sound positioning during gameplay. While some users appreciate the backlight and design, others find the build quality lacking, with issues like twisting wires and shrinking plastic. Despite these drawbacks, the headphones are considered a decent budget option by some, especially during financial constraints, though the durability of components like the microphone is questioned after extended use. Overall, the REAL-EL GDX-8000 is seen as a visually appealing and affordable choice, but with notable comfort and sound quality limitations.

Heavy and uncomfortable, sound as if it's coming from a bucket. Lacks bass for music, and there's a strange echo effect in games. I've tinkered with the equalizer (tried different presets, turned it off entirely), tried various environmental effects, turned virtual 7.1 on and off — all to no avail, the echo effect remains and in CS:GO it feels like there are multiple opponents walking. There's no positioning at all - the headphones send you on a wild goose chase, all because of this unclear echo. If you haven't tried vibro-bass, put two phones on vibrate and hold them to your head - the effect is the same, the bass doesn't improve, but your head hurts after 10 minutes. My verdict is this: disappointment and complete unwillingness to use them.
P. S. I'm not spoiled by all kinds of expensive headsets and didn't come here to badmouth a budget pick. These are my most expensive headphones and I got them to replace my cheap ones (74 hryvnias in 2012), which lasted 6 years and the drivers have started to rattle. But it seems my access to my favorite games will remain closed for a long time, unless I return them to the store.
The microphone is simply divine, good build and noise isolation
Everything except the microphone.

at first everything was fine, but then a year later the microphone began to lag in games.
the sound is excellent, the bass is there, but I don't use it.
It doesn't sit tight on the ears, the microphone broke after a year.
