New Headphones

[Piconjis]

Hey im getting a new headphone and really have no clue which one to get. I would use them for gaming both competitive and normal I play WoW, LoL, SC2, Bf4 and titanfall when it comes out. I have a few requirements. I need them to be closed, have red/black look, comfortable and have good sound quality (I dont need a mic as I already have one). Thanks!

Sony MDR-1R. I have them and they are extremely comfortable and lightweight. I usually wear them for 8-9 hours strait and I don't even notice that they are on my head.

Aren't the Sennheiser's open and not closed like the OP asked for?

This guide looks at multiple headphones from a gaming perspective so it might help.

Nah I dont want any of those "gaming" headsets anymore

You'll probably want to look into a surround sound headphones instead of stereo since you say you do competitive gaming. This guide might help with that.

The best scores are given to audiopgile stereo headphones....

Heh you're right. Edited my post so as not to recommend surround sound anymore.
