Gaming is an expensive hobby. Even after you buy a new console or build a PC from scratch, you can’t forget other essentials like a responsive gaming mouse or comfy chair. And if you want better focus for your next play-through of Deathloop, you’ll need a solid gaming headset, too.

If you prefer a straightforward headset, you’ll want to try the Alienware 7.1 AW150H gaming headset, which is on sale for only $69.99. It’s originally listed for $99.99, but you’ll save 30% when you buy from Amazon. That beats out listings at both Best Buy and Dell.

The Alienware AW150H is a wired headset, so you won’t have to worry about recharging the battery and setting up finicky Bluetooth connections. It works with any device with a 3.5mm audio jack.

Once you plug in and play, just sit back and immerse yourself in 7.1 surround sound powered by 50mm 20Hz to 40hHz drivers for high-resolution audio. Your teammates will also hear you clearly, thanks to a retractable boom microphone with noise cancellation.

If you’re ready to add the final piece to your gaming puzzle, upgrade to a new Alienware AQ150H headset for a new low price of $69.99.
