Sennheiser HD5xx series are all good in price to performance ratio. Of course, it all depends on what you need and how far you are on the audiophile autism spectrum, and how much money are you willing to spend.

my Beyerdynamic DT770s broke after years and years and I'm poor so I had to buy lower end headphones. Ended up with K240s and I actually like them quite a bit.
Not closed, and not as bass heavy as the 770s but I feel like the highs are a bit cleaner. But maybe that's because I always had my 770s turned way up. Good deal for $70.

>>378462047

>Shitty cheap headsets keep breaking because I'm too poor to get anything good

>>378462047
Headphones are great for gaming, but I don't much like my HD800s for it. Too many games have shitty sound that actually clips or distorts in high frequency ranges.

HD600s with a modmic or clipmic are the way to go, comfy, good sound, and just really nice.

sennheiser HD650 here

I like them

I've got ATH-M50Xs for my casual use and I think they're pretty good given what I paid for them.

anyone?

I usually just buy the cheap Sennheiser PC Chat headsets, no one has complained about the microphone yet and the sound isn't bad.

>>378475043
Closed headphones are for considerate people don't want their audio to leak and bother everyone else. Open headphones leak audio but they have big soundastage, the audio feels big like its coming from all around the room.

>>378475449
open = good for vidya, bad for porn?

>>378475675

>>378475732

>>378475675
I use my meme50x's and the sound stage is wide enough to discern directional sound to a good degree. I can for instance hear the footsteps of a player walk around me in a circle without a noticeably abrupt difference. However for gaming the wider the sound stage the better. I bought the ATH m50's for music though

>using headphones for vidya instead some X.1 system that makes your entire appartment shake when shit is going down

My ATH-M50s are tres incredible for gaming and music.

>>378462047

I just bought one for the mic. The Chinese milimeter wires have already disabled sound on the right side.

the meme50s are not worth it right now for that price

>>378475987
Open headphones are not good if you play hentai games with voice acting.

>>378473724

open is better for gaming cuz the soundstage is bigger which means you can better tell which direction sound is coming from (if the game has good audio at least).

also fuck people who cry about sound leaking and bothering others. youre in your room playing video games, who is it gonna bother?

>>378473724
>>378475043
Open headphones are more breathable and more natural sound. Downside is you can hear outside noise and people can hear your headphones as if they're speakers.

If you like bass, closed is better.

My m50s just broke, what is a good replacement?

Soundstage is a literal meme. I can tell exactly where shit is just as good with my IEMs as I can with my open headphones.

>>378462047
Picked these up on sale for 80 Canadian didgery-doos 2 years ago. One of the best purchases I've ever made, actually. The big thing with these is aside from the fantastic sound, they are comfortable enough for me to wear all the time. This was a huge problem for me because I have a big head and all the """gamer""" headsets were absolute trash. All plastic, inflexible, small, extremely uncomfortable, shitty mics and bad sound quality.

I was using earphones before a head. After this I will never allow myself to ever play vidya without one. I would recommend the senheiser head I use to anyone. ive had it for 2 years now and I mistreated her badly but shes made out of fucking titanium and is still going strong.

if you actually game without a headset, immediately kill yourself.

I'd love to use my headphones but I just don't take to them well

Having anything touching my ears for more than 10 minutes starts to give me massive headaches and make me feel flushed. I get the same problem with glasses. I have no idea why

So my ath-m50x's are doomed to just sit on my desk looking pretty

>>378478372

that's because m50s hurt like hell for alot of people

if it still hurts, you're fucked

>>378478546
It comes with two ports, one for the mic and one for the sound. Plug in the sound and plug in your microphone and youll be ok.

>>378478528
I had this problem too. Just remove one of your earbuds and switch periodically. You lose a lot of body heat from your earlobes, and if you block them youll get a headache really easily.

>>378466180

Blue Snowball like the other poster said is good, but only if you live alone or your roommates are fairly quiet. It picks up goddamn everything.

The Antlion Mod Mic is a good quality mic that you can stick to any set of headphones for a pseudo gaymen headset, but actually good quality.

Either will run you about $60

>>378478372
Build quality looks pretty cheap for "titanium". In general how do you think they compare to the equivalent price range headsets? How is the mic quality? I mean for 170+ bucks I'd expect more then just the Sennheiser logo.

>>378466180
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005DJOIHE/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

What's the source on this? Tried a reverse image search, no success. Tried searching character names, not really any luck there either...

>>378478895
I didnt pay more than 90 for my headset, brand new. I wouldnt justify the price, but the sturdiness of this headset is crazy. The microphone is completely fine, but it wont beat an actual microphone itself obviously. The headset also doesnt have good sound suppression, so when you play loud music, people can hear it faintly through the earbuds.

Aside from that, its been good to me and its comfortable too. I think nowadays there are better ones for a better price.

Yeah, fuck open ear

>>378477625
This.
Soundstage is an implicit quality and as such only improves itself by broadening the range of acoustic power from one sound to the next. Closed headphones are just as capable of creating a discernible soundscape as open phones, the key difference being the distinction of volume. There are really only disadvantages then with open headphones as they permit extra coloration from not only background noise but their very construction as well.

I have a pair of Turtle Beaches that have lasted three console generations almost.

Granted the cups are hotglued because the plastic gradually weakened over the years, and the bluetooth is a little glitchy.

But they're fucking worth every cent.

Play Bloodborne with headphones

Dat sound design

>>378482425
No they are not. They painfully chafe your ears in long sessions. The mic sucks hard. Bass is good though.

I avoided the ear chafing issue by zip tying a cloth around the top, but I'll give the mic issues.

I'm not a retard, so I know what I'm buying and what I'm getting for my value. As long as you don't waste a shitload of money on amps and DACs which are basically memes after a certain price point, you'll be fine. You have audible gains in sound quality up to the $1000 mark for open ears.

I've got Superlux HD668B. They're "semi-open" headphones. Offer good soundstage, but don't leak sound like they're speakers. Also cheap, but get replacement ear pads for them, they're like $7

Lately i've been just using some earbuds because it's too hot in this room to cover my ears and head.

Is getting a good pair of earbuds and a desk mic a bad idea?

if not, recommendations?

>>378462126
Just bought these a few days ago. They're good but I'm honestly surprised at how well the sony platinum headset that I'm moving from holds up to these. Mostly a sidegrade, but a good one.

>>378462047
Best closed headphone around $100?

>>378484006
probably the ATH m40's, or you could wait for the m50x's to go on sale. I would go for the later.

I'm using Superlux HD681B, pretty good sound stage and that's pretty much what matters to vidya, for me at least.

Planning to upgrade to Monoprice 8323 or the SHP 9500

I honestly just want to get the same again, they're reasonably cheap and p good quality.
I have been thinking about getting some wireless ones too though, how much of a cost increase/quality downgrade are they?

I have those but with £2 piss cheap velour pads, not great but much better over the stock ones. They definitely have better sound than any "gaming" headset.

If you're looking for relatively cheap, but good headphones, I really like the PS4G Headphones. Wireless, work with everything. I've had mine for over a year now and they're great.

I work with an ipod classic gen 5 modded to have an internal SD card with 256gb of memory and running on rockbox. It's hooked up to a TEAC HA-p50 amp that can double as a DAC/amp combo if I hook it up to my computer. I use this with Beyer dt770 32 ohm and dt880 250 ohm. Never felt the need to upgrade past this honestly, it's worked well for years.

Mine don't trouble me when I take them out, But I usually have a bag of some sort with me and just spool out enough cable to move freely.

Pretty easy to install a replacement cable too.
