Now my IEMs have given up the ghost I'm looking for some headphones around £40.

I have no idea what to look for so any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

I would be using them for:

Gaming

Music

Films

General computer usage

CPU: i5 2500k (3.3 GH z) GPU: MSI GTX 770 Lightning HDD: 1TB Seagate Barracuda, 320GB Seagate Barracuda Motherboard: MSI Z68A RAM: 8GB Corsair Vengeance (1600MHz) PSU: Seasonic M1211 750W Case: Corsair Carbide 300R Cooler: Intel Stock (For the mo)

Superlux' offerings are among the best around that budget, you could get the HD681 EVO.

 

If you can bump up your budget by about 10, you can get the Philips Uptown, I quite like my pair.

The Phillips would be £16 more, are they worth the increase over the superlux?
