I recently got this headset, and wow is it good. My only issue is when certain people talk on discord, I can hear a really high pitched ringing. I fiddled with a bunch of settings, computer audio and discord, and nothing seems to solve the issue. It is primarily if not all in my right ear only. Is there something wrong with my headset, or was that ringing always there I can just hear it cause the headset is THAT good? I haven't had any issues with any other application, though I have yet to test if I can hear the ringing on a different version of discord, say on my xbox instead of my pc. Only other issue I've had is occasional static, but I can't tell if it's from the headset or the show/game/etc.

They sound really good. As good as AKG open backs for several hundred dollars? Of course not, stop being silly. But as good or better than similarly priced closed back headphones? Stop being silly. They sound way better than the price would imply. It's always been easier to do open back headphones that sound spacious and alive. These have a classic open back sound. Bigger than your head. Not bass thumping but not bass poor.
I've had a few different open back headphones in this price range from several manufacturers. These sounded best, but looked weirdest.
If you want sound isolation, look somewhere else. If you love the sound signature of open back headphones, and want something cheap enough that if someone snags them out of your seat on a long flight but sound good enough that you don't even think about what you're listening to... these are what you should buy.
