I do wonder if studio systems can emulate sound gamut.  That would be really useful.  If you had studio headphones with a “this is what gamer wearing this type of headphone will hear” setting you might be able to emulate various types of listening devices.

Don't limit yourselves to brands either there are great brands that make awesome headphones beyond those 3. Like audio Technica, audeze, fostex,hifiman and and insane amount of Chinese brands

Something to aid in switching between lots of different headphones: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32902426254.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.54ed3be2BEfWLe&algo_pvid=6b4efe58-e675-49ac-8b79-efac7fc4f170&algo_expid=6b4efe58-e675-49ac-8b79-efac7fc4f170-27&btsid=ff3d8991-9da8-47d1-a4ab-cd3817bd02b0&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_10,searchweb201603_53

For properly testing all the different types of devices gamers are going to use with your game, the only solution is to buy a wide array of devices.
 
 

It’s about user experience.  For a game what is the gamer going to hear?  Gamers play using several types of sound systems.  Tiny little powered speakers, sound bars, gamer headphones, possibly even earbuds.  There should be statistics somewhere for each type of game.

Gaming headsets are most of the time way too ugly and too much plastic and shit, yuck! Exactly what rice guru said. I use my DT770, Amirons and Meze 99 Classics for everything for example.
 
And switching between different headphones will be tedious over time. I solved that by getting the Fiio E10K and using velcro fastener. No more looking for the right hole in my black Fractal R4.
 
Don't believe in what they advertise what their "gaming" headsets can do. Virtual sound? Some idiotic brands also advertise it can do 7.1. And just what Lauen said, they are bad.

Heh.  It’s a very old sound issue.  You may need more than 2.  Phil Spector famously had a whole pile of speakers he listened to stuff with. Everything from a cheapass mono pocket “transistor” to an fm radio designed for cars to the best audiophile equipment of the day.

You might have to buy 2 headphones . 1 that to you is good for production and 1 for gaming. But headsets aren't inherently better for gaming than a normal headphone

Hello,
I work with game development, music production, video editing, animation and audio post-production (foley)

My problem is:
If I buy a gamer headphone I will be able to work better in my game and play my FPS games at leisure, but if I buy studio headphones I will work better in all other areas, but I will not have the same quality when working with game development and playing my games.

I want a headphone that can supply these two areas: studio and gaming. I even thought about buying modular headphones, but the only ones that exist are from AIAIAI Audio, and still do not meet my needs.
 
I really hate having to buy 2 headphones, besides the fact that if I need to, how can I quickly switch between the two headphones without needing a lot of work? Remember that it would be repetitive every time I had to play and get back to work and vice versa.

Also, i see that Ninja (streamer) uses a Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro but DT990 is not surround, does it really affects gaming experience?
Every opinion will be helpful.

Thanks in advance,
