Best PS4 Headsets Under $100
These sound so good, you'll forget where you are.
Here’s a fact: good audio makes every media experience better. It heightens every experience, and gives you a soundtrack to your daily life. I’ll admit that I live in my headphones: I wear them when I head to work on the train, and I love that I can listen to podcasts while waiting for my clothes to finish their cycle at the laundromat.
What I don’t appreciate are the crazy high prices most headphones and headsets come at. I saved for weeks before finally getting my hands on a solid pair, and while it was well worth the price tag, I would’ve loved them just as much with a 20% discount.
For me, good audio brightens my day by tuning everything out. It helps my mind wander and unclench from the day-to-day struggles. I couldn’t work out without it. So trust me when I say I know how important audio is to the gaming community: You can’t really lose yourself in the action if you hear your roommate vacuuming the whole time.
So we took the challenge of sourcing the best quality PS4 headphones that each ring in at less than $100, because perfect sound shouldn’t run over 3 figures. Check them out below!
