I don't know how newer Pulse models are compared to previous ones such as the Pulse Elites, but I was not a fan of those. I have many posts of old like ten years ago echoing the same thing: the pulse bass was either engaged or disengaged (there was no crossover blend and all felt like it was at a single frequency), and was on an independent volume level from your volume knob.

They may have changed things since then, but I've never enjoyed my experiences with Sony over-the-ear headphones. Their earbuds, on the other hand, were always fantastic value purchases for me.

I think I had the first set they made for the PS3, but I didn’t use them enough to remember any opinion I may have had on them.

I finally have a pretty decent surround sound system for the first time in my adult life, but the only chance I get to play is after the kids are asleep. Such is life…

I do have a pair of the over ear Sony XM3s, which I’m not crazy about overall, but they’re good enough for plugging into a controller I guess.

I’ve also considered going with a radio frequency set, hooking it up to the receiver, and doing things that way. I’m not really familiar with that tech, but I would guess it’s better quality than the audio being sent via Bluetooth to the dual sense.

I like the Pulses, but if you just want to hear the game, I would go the wired route. I prefer the Pulses because of the wireless capabilities, but I am lazy and constantly forget to charge them, so I typically use a $15 one hear headset.

I never could tell the difference between 30 and 60 fps fells and looks 100% the same to me and I dont really understand what VRR does lol. But will be interesting to see what digital foundry says and if games that are like 60 can get up to like 90 or something now.

VRR will push the FPS a bit higher, it helps with screen tearing and clipping. It helps keeps the frames more accurate and stable.

I’m not 100% on exactly how VRR works on the consoles, but I assume it’s similar to G-sync for Nvidia on the pc side.

If your tv supports the feature (mine doesn’t) it will sort of be able to match dips or spikes in frame rate with the appropriate refresh rate.

Also, man do I envy you guys that can’t see the difference between 30fps and higher frame rates. I’m at the point where 30 is more or less unplayable for me.
