Hi,
I can't charge up my steelseries arctis 1. It's inside the ear where you need to charge so I guess it's broken.
I still have a hyperx cloud 2 laying around, but it's not optimal as it's been used for ages and it's really old, worn and sometimes there's static noise, so it has aged well. I doubt it will go for much longer.

So just wanna know what suggestions are out there (wireless and cabled)?
My budget is 80-100 euro's. 150 might be doable but that's harder.

I was thinking about going back to hyperx (maybe cloud 3?). 7.1 surround is a nice tool but not nessecairy, and if needed I can go for the wireless one but? Arctis 1 was nice to have as wireless, hyperx feels better qualitywise
Logitech also seems nice.

I'd try and repair it, as I've come to learn that something you've grown accustomed to is when the device fails and finding a worthwhile replacement is often excruciating.

Yea like I can do this xD I would rather send it to someone and say that its broken and that they fix it then this... Besides this is the wrong one... Its another version. Why not buy straight up a new one? Haven't bought any new ones for the last 5 years...
 
Sarcastic too? Too much ego to answer? Nice! You should be proud of yourself... This isn't a good way to represent this community just so you know...
I don't know the budget headsets so I can't answer. I will say the Audeze Maxwell is the best headset I've ever owned regardless of price. After using the Maxwell everything else sounds hollow and dull.

With that said, of the multiple threads in this forum, the Steel Series brand gets high praise. Give the forum search a try also.
