Sennheiser or Audio Tech??

[fsnfms]

Hey guys, i am currently looking for best comfort and music sound quality headset for gaming as well as music.

I first thought about getting Razer Kraken Pro due to their visual and comfortness.

But, today morning, i tried my friends AT M50 and they sounded just way beyond Siberia v2 or other peripherals I've used.

So, today, at the time of writing, I came up with few headphones sub 60~70$ with the sales included.

 

Which of these do you guys recommend for long time wearing (comfortness) and sound quality?

 

1. Audio Tech ATH-M35

2. Sennheiser HD429

3. Sennheiser HD428

 

Also, some of Sennheiser had like SC or S after the HD###, what are these variables means?

I have M30's and love them for gaming. Great for the price and the M35 is just a refresh of it, same drivers and sound. 

 

I haven't used the 428 or 429's my self. I'd say wait to buy a pair of cans tho. You get what you pay for at the lower end. Save, buy M50's or 558's and be happy in the long run.

I have the M50's (the big brother to the M30's) and I love 'em. Never had any problems with Audiotechnica and I always recommend them.

The lower end Sennheisers are probably more comfortable than the lower end audio-technicas. I'd push for a 439 because it has a detachable cable (read: extra longevity) where the other 400 series headphones do not.

 

@EmoRarity, what's better, the M35 or the T400?

thanks for the answers guys, i chose m35 since i heard and ready many of reviews that 429/428 is more heavy on the bass instead of the clear crisp highs i wanted which m35's do have. Also, any recommendations on amplifier kit? I'm currently considering this : http://www.amazon.com/Pyle-Pro-PHA40-4-Channel-Headphone-Amplifier/dp/B003M8NVFS/ref=pd_sim_sbs_e_1

None, especially not a Pyle of junk like that. Spend that money on better headphones.

T400

HD 429 are very good for the price, and were very comfortable. I used them for a year and they molded perfectly, also had somewhat decent isolation.

cmoy(jds labs has kit or prebuilt) or fiio e5/e6, if you need more volume, but I wouldn't get one just to get one.
