The boots theory is an economic theory that people in poverty have to buy cheap and subpar products that need to be replaced repeatedly, proving more expensive in the long run than more expensive items.

    Yeah.

    I went 558 to H6pro.

    Just for the headphone part: For gaming it’s a lateral move, and I don’t expect music would be as good. But in this case “lateral move” is still better than the best headsets.

    But they cost less then regular Sennheisers without a mic.

    So I wouldn’t recommend them as audiophile quality headphones if you’re super into music, but if you are you likely have multiple sets already and wouldn’t mind dropping $100 on a set just for gaming.

    When listening to music/movies, even single player games, just keep using what you’re using now.
