      How much do you care about the quality? Both what you hear and how well you’re heard? What’s a reasonable price to you? Wired or wireless?

        I not a fan of the headphones that completely block everything that you can’t even hear yourself speak. Don’t care about wired or wireless that much. As long as it lasts.

        And works on my Linux fedora PC.

        Ofc when I say I mean my friend.

      Probably not the best, bit I do like these for that situation.

      Corsair HS35

      Bought them on a whim without much thought because I couldn’t get my really nice wireless headphones to work with older games. These work with anything because they are wired. Also the little bits like the soft strap make them comfy to wear.

      Plain, basic, cheap.
