If you really can’t wait then check audio forums or marketplaces to see if they have a used DT 880, TYGR, or even DT 990 but you probably won’t like the sound sig on that one. I wouldn’t buy any other “gaming” headset besides cloud II if you really want to move that direction. I can tell you first hand something actually considered an “audiophile” headphone will wipe the floor with all of those “gaming” headphones any day of the week.

Cloud II is based off DT 770 so it is at least very comfy and durable with similar but different sound

Yeah it’s probably one of the best gaming headsets. I rocked one way before HD6XX and Sundara and it was very good for that $60 price.

Yes. I’ve tried a lot of “gaming” headset and cloud II are probably the best all around. Sooooo comfy too. Great mic as well. Better than a lot of other headsets. It’s just a solid package. Thinking about it right now though, I think DT 770 has more treble and mid and a bit clearer too which may help for footsteps and such. That’s the only thing I would knock on the Hyperx. Bloated upper bass and not really any energy in highs.
