I have a pair of Sony EXB50’s or something along those lines, wired earbuds. Works great, though some games suffer from audio crackling (possible side effect of resume from sleep). Sound quality is good though regardless, and that’s game dependent in my experience.

Bluetooth earbuds work well too, you can pair your phone to the Steam Deck and pair the earbuds to the Steam Deck and stream music from your phone and play your game. Also haven’t noticed any latency which is pretty amazing, but even if there was a rhythm game worth its salt has a setting to correct that

I generally use Bose Bluetooth wireless headphones. I just got a set of Viture glasses so I’ll see how those speakers sound. On occasion I play without headphones, either built in speakers or no sound.

Sennheiser Momentum 3 bluetooth headphones. They work amazingly well.

Yes, because my OLED’s speakers sound terrible. Especially when compared the LED I had previously.

I use a Bose QC45.
