I am currently building a computer and plan on during gaming on it. I also listen to a lot of music so I am also for a good music headphones. So I was thinking about getting the Audio-Technica ATH-M50 headphones and a Blue Yeki or Snowball. Probably the Yeki though. Or should I just get a headset with a mic? I wanted to see want you guys think.

I am leaning toward the Audio-Technica ATH-M50 headphones and the Blue Yeki.

Quality headset + standalone mic is probably the best choice, if you have the money ^^

 

I will add a Soundcard [not sure which one yet] and get Sennheiser HD598 [my bro just bought them, they're awesome] and a Snowball. I can't tell you anything about the headset you mentioned, since I do not know it, but usually you're on the safe road to stay away from All-In-One-Headsets ^^

Frost upon these cigarettes.... lipstick on the window pane...

Thanks, i was looking at the snowball but the yeki is said to be a lot better for $20. I will look into those headphones, but the one i mentioned as tons on amazing reviews. I plan to get a sound card, but not right now.

Does anyone else have great headphone recommendations that would go good with a sound card.

 

Which sound card?  Most of them have output impedances around 7-10 Ohms, so I'd recommend something like the Beyerdynamic DT990pros since they have a 250 Ohm impedance.  For lower impedance headphones, I'd look at something with a low output impedance like the FiiO E10, Shiit Magni and Modi, or, of course, the O2+ODAC.

 

Read the FAQ if you have any more questions.

"Pardon my French but this is just about the most ignorant blanket statement I've ever read. And though this is the internet, I'm not even exaggerating."
