This is the Amazon link for the original Arete. It’s still good for competitive gaming, but once you hear the Arete 2’s more forward mids and improved bass control, it’s hard not to call the newer one the better buy.

Pros

+Good competitive gaming tuning
+Strong staging and imaging
+Can be a value pick if priced lower

Cons

-Less natural/forward vocals than Arete 2
-Older accessory bundle vs Arete 2
