I’m looking at new headphones, my current ones kinda suck for music. Im using Corsair Void Elite 7.1 headphones currently, but don’t need the mic anymore, and the sound quality isn’t as good as I’d like. My budget is super low, about £80 at a push. I was looking at the OneOdio monitor 60 headphones and they seem pretty solid, but have mixed reviews. Anyone have any suggestions for some good quality sets that wont be too expensive?

if you don't need a mic and are willing to go low for a name brand headset the g435 lightspeed would be a good pick and its wireless as well (links all down below). or if you don't want a Logitech then the razer blackshard v2 might be good to even if it is about 2 pounds more then your budget. But it says it has passive NC and states very good sound quality (maybe better than the g435)

This price range is sorely under served.  The Phillips Fidelio SHP9500 and 9600 are all I can think of without going to the Koss KP40 and grado pad modding it.  I absolutely love my Kph40 with the mod but most people would scoff at them.  Granted I have many headphones but they are by far the best bang for the buck.

 

I bought the SHP9500 for myself and found them extremely bright, the 9600 is supposed to fix this but I haven't heard them.  They would be worth a solid look

Audio go Brrrrrr

i actually liked them more than the hd6xx but they didnt fit my ears that well and the parts express headband probably wont work for me since i have a big head. but their sound is amazing for how cheap they are
