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.

Sonically, these are pretty great for the price. It's definitely not a neutral/critical listening pair, but I've been able to enjoy listening to just about any genre with these. It won't match higher end cans, but for what it is, it's great.
Also, while these are fully plastic, it is definitely some type of durable plastic. It's different than the cheap plastic stuff you might see from off the shelf headphones or low end gaming headsets. As I mentioned above, I've basically stretched the headband almost flat over the box it came with over an extended period and it shows no sign of stress or cracking. The material makes me feel that I could drop these from my head to concrete floor or toss it carelessly in a bag full of stuff without cracking the plastic, which is much more than I could say vs other cheap headphones or even some of my more expensive pairs. It is all plastic so it's not going to look super premium, but it is durable and fairly well built for its intended purpose. It also comes with a set of replacement velor pads (which I felt is cheap and isn't as good as the pleather it comes stock in) and a carrying bag, so for the price, it's definitely a good value.
