G933 users?

    So my trusty G930s finally broke after 4 years (arm broke although still useable). I like Logitech gear for the most part so I've just bought g933s and I'm finding the audio dreadully.... muddled in game and finding positional audio to be really hard.

    On the G930s I pretty much put 7.1 on and did nothing else for any game.

    Now, in Overwatch with the same basic setting everything is.... smushed and reverby. No setting really helps. The best audio I've gotten so far is to turn DTS/7.1 off completely and turn dolby atmos on in game but even then incidental stuff really blurs out where enemies and damage is coming from.

    Pretty disappointed with actually...... Not sure whether to cut my losses and sell them or see if I just get used to them. From a general audio perspective, music and movies they seem much nicer than the g930s.

    They're officially going back. I popped the G930s back on this morning and it's complete night and day difference. I'm thoroughly disappointed in them

    Anyone got any headset recommendations in the same price range/little higher.

    Bought the G533 for my daughter, very impressed with them.
    My G930's also exventually broke and after I had taped it and glued it, they broke again so had to upgrade :( . Changed to the hyperX HX-HSCF-BK/EM.

    The sound quality is miles above the G930.

    I've had two G930's, both of them broke and were held together with tape and glue. Wouldn't buy logitech again, expensive and poor build quality in my experience.

    I now have SteelSeries Arctis Pro Wireless - expensive but absolutely worth the money. There's cheaper, wired versions that are essentially the same. Bought it on the strength of the many reviews saying it was great.
