If you're mostly using them at home, get the 518s.

Recently found these and am tempted to get them even though I already have a lot of other pairs of headphones. They are rebranded Brainwavz HM5's but with extra pads. They are supposed to be reaaaaaallly comfortable, and a more neutral sound signature with a large soundstage for a closed headphone.

That is a big overstatement. The HyperX Clouds are not bad at all as a budget headset, or even headphones. They are essentially Takstar Pro 80s with a mic, which are well regarded headphones. They are a little treble spikey, but the audio quality is not bad. Also the comfort and build quality is outstanding compared to anything else in that price range. If they made a version of the Qpad QH-85 I would probably buy them instantly, as those are based off of the Takstar HI2050, which I personally think is a better headphone over the Superlux 668B.
