Looking for good headphone recommendation?

So glad they worked out for you and thank you for the review. Always nice to hear, pun unintended, from someone that has some experience in a subject. My caveman brain with my Nova was simply “sound is good… me like” .
 

The only benefit I have with the wireless is that I do have it connected to my phone so when I am flying I don’t miss a call from the wife or kids, everyone else I ignore. I do use the wire direct to the headset jack.

Hopefully all went well at the doctors and nothing more serious is going on with your ears/hearing. 
 

 

Thank you very much!!

Yep hearing is most awesome now, all cleaned out. Hearing better than I have in quite some time. I learned my lesson, no more earbuds for me.

If you find earwax is becoming an issue again you can try this- turn your head sideways, one ear up- pour about a capful of 3% hydrogen peroxide into the ear, keeping the ear up.  Let it bubble for 2-3 minutes then  turn head ear down with ear covered with towel repeat on opposite ear. The peroxide will soften the wax and the bubbling will loosen the wax rinsing it out. Probably should not try if the eardrum is perforated, otherwise it is safe and effective (unless the wax is too impacted).

I'll take up that advice. But unfortunately, dburne passed a while ago.

Just found this thread and want to reopen it. As I am also looking for a new headset, my choice will be between the Logitech G Pro X (2) Wireless or the Steelseries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless. What are your thougts?

Can't comment on the Steelseries but I replaced my Corsair HS 70 Pro Wireless after quite a short life (because of worn out battery + material on headband and ear cups peeling off) with a Logitech G Pro X2 LightSpeed Wireless.
It's a very good headset, easy on the ears/head (just the right pressure "for me"), long battery life (Corsair delivered 12 hrs at best, after 2 years only 2, this Logitech G PRO goes to 50 hrs), it connects directly when headset it turned on (Corsair took 20 secs sometimes to get connected), fits fine over my Rift-S VR headset, very good build quality (so far).
The only "little" negative point I have is the position of the volume wheel because it's easily rubbed when touching the ON/OFF button moving the volume up/down a bit.
But every time I put this headset on, it creates a smile on my face. I like it a lot.

Thanks a lot for your reply. Glad to hear you are happy with your Logitech headset. What about the sound quality in general and hearing all the radio comms? 

Had the chance to put it over my ears in a local store and yes it seems to be very comfortable. I like logitech products and seems this headset wouldn‘t be a bad choice

For me the sound quality is fine (better than my previous Corsair HS 70 Pro) but my +60-year-old ears (with one having tinnitus) are not really a reference...
