For reasons I have the same headset two times. The one I used just broke. This is the two headsets side by side. Used for roughly 7-8 years.

    I had that headset. First lasted 5 years, second about 1 year. Not a defective product, just a dog. Good headset.

      What’s the brand? What’s the model?

      I’ve heard from people whose opinions I respect that they are like this with Koss (use em until they break after a bunch of years, buy the same to replace the old ones).

        Logitech G233 Good headset I am very happy with it. However it’s wired and I think my next pair (so in eight years I guess :D ) will be wireless

        Logitech G400ish.

        I cannot recall the exact model anymore. After I lost the second pair, I was in a spot where I didn’t really need headphones anymore, so I can’t check.

    You … you haven’t changed the pads (which look porous) in 7 years?

    They are really cheap & (usually) easy to replace. And you can try different configs (what surface material suits you, thickness which affects sound stage, hard/soft/memory foam, gel, etc).
