Need opinion on headphones?

[Lunatic]

I'm looking for a new set of cans, and I've narrowed it down to 3 options:

Sennheiser HD558

Audio-Technica AD-700X

AKG 612 Pro

 

Their primary use will be gaming, wuth quite a bit of everyday use on the side, such as listening to commentaries and music. Thanks

What about the ATH-M50?

[ShadowCaptain]

I would say the Audio-Technica AD-700X because they have a very good sound stage

 

Also the DT 880 should be available for a similar price, great cans too

They are closed, so they don't have the soundstage I need for gaming use, thanks for the reply though:)

Thanks, I had a look at them, but they were slightly more expensive, would it be worth saving the extra money?

Personally I would say so, I think they are super comfortable and well made, great sounding headphones

 

in my opinion the beyers are a little more fun sounding

 

But, hard to say which is better or more comfortable for you

Thanks, I'll look into those! Thanks so much for the reply and suggestion

Does the HyperX Cloud get close to those?

If it does, for 100$ IMO is the best bang for the buck

NVM, just go for the ATH-700X

Waiting for someone to suggest those haha! They sound great, as Linus has said, but they are closed so they don't really have the soundstage I would like for gaming

Take a look at AKG Q701.

Got a "used" one from Amazon for 160 (used in their view is with slightly damaged packaging - but essentially new).

I had a look at the Beyers on amazon, and they were faaar more expensive than I want to be spending, thanks for the suggestion though!

The 612's are the best option you posted in the OP imo.

There are also the DT770s which are cheaper
