Headphone recommendation

[ShadowSlayer]

Hi everyone. I recently broke my headset i am thinking buying a new , but i don't know which one, so i'm coming here for help.

I'm a guy who games on his days off, sometimes for more than 4 hours so the feel of headphones means a lot to me.

I wear glasses and don't like when headphones presses too hard on ear. I get the feeling that my galsses are being crushed into my skull.

I can't use open ear headphones because i'm sharing room with my sister. On leather earpads my ears get really swetty after long use.

I don't have amp or dac. I can use usb or 3.5 mm jack. 

My budget will be around 100 Euro. I know it's not a lot but  it's better than nothing.

Thanks in the advance.

i would say the hyperX cloud 2 would be a solid headset

[Dackzy]

I would say DT770, if you can get them for 100€ or less, they are really comfy and kinda sound like the clouds, just higher audio quality.

If he plays fps games that need positional cues 

Id stay away from dt770s

wtf are you talking about? The DT770 has a fairly okay big soundstage for closed headphones, I think you are mixing them up with the m50/x.

oh wow used them plenty of times lol, just plz stop

I'd never recommend them for anyone that fps games

when fisher clones, clouds, or cals do way better job in positional audio for closed headphones

stop it, just stop it. How many closed headphones have you tried since you can say they have a bad soundstage? I have tried over 80 and they are above average

The bass is overwhelming for positional sounds

Can you please just stop 

Obviously i have them in front and have first hand experience for over 2 yrs

Oh god you didn't just say that, did you? Did you ever in your life think that people hear differently? No? Well then let me tell you something some people cannot hear bass that well, some people hear bass really well. Just because something is overwhelming for YOU doesn't it mean that other people think so.

Oh my

you are full of it

 

You call yourself experienced but you continue to argue over a common gaming experience Many owners report on dt770s 

 

Plz tell me which games you played with them?

Let me see I have played over 200 hours at CSS lans with them and over 300 hours at CSGO lans with them and maybe 20-30 hours of BF4

 

Why don't you start thinking about how other people hear, NOBODY in this world hears 100% the same as you and that is a FACT, there will always be a difference somewhere. Everyone is different when it comes to how we hear things and experience things with our ears. The DT770 has a fair/good soundstage for closed, they are not great like the K553, but I also NEVER said that they are great. Do you even know how many headphones that has close to no soundstage like the m50/x, from what I have tried, A LOT. So from my experience average is pretty meh, so when something is fair/good, then it is above average.

 

Heck even a lot of people think they are a bit weak when it comes to bass.

Never heard those "fisher clones", why don't you stop? The DT770 are fine for gaming, they are comfy and have a okay soundstage, not saying they are better than those fisher clone things, because never ever tried them and don't even know where to find them.

 

When it comes down to what headphones you pick, the sound signature will always be very important and in the end most likely be the part you choose your headphones with.

 

Why is it funny that I have gamed that much with them? I have played a lot of CSGO and CSS, I started with shitty gaming headsets, then got some headphones, then my team mate got two DT770 and gave me a pair everytime we went to a CSS/CSGO lan party. Yeah those hours are only at lans, I use k612 at home.

 

 

For me anything above the m50 bass is wayyy too much, the m50 bass is only fine for me for a hour max. I know what you mean with too much boomy bass, but some people don't hear bass that well and some people love that boomy bass.

Look at where I live in the world, how often do you think I even see brands that are not mainstream? Not a lot, only when I am at audio meet ups. Brands like hifiman are only sold in a few stores that are not even close to me and maybe 3-4 people at each meet up has some unusual headphones from unusual brandswith them. I have heard of fischer, but not fischer clones

This is why people hate audiophiles, because of this elitism stigma.

So you are saying that he is likely to know better then? Because that is what I'm getting from your statement.

what?

claiming to know headphones

but not know fischer clones

the dt770s bass overwhelms positional sound which is needed for most fps gaming

when there are better options

and telling a owner of dt770s they are great for it when owner has other closed back headphones that do it better

plz read the thread
