Go to solution Solved by APrettyCoolWalrus,

I have the ATH-M40x, a very good set of headphones. They are closed-eared.

Sennheiser HD518 is also good, open eared design.

Posted this in a similar thread. All these are great choices, it depends on your personal experience though. 


 


Shure SRH440s - Studio pair, so somewhat flat, even sound. $99

Superlux 681 EVOs - Big drivers, comes w/ velour pads. Has a nice bass response - ~$41


http://www.amazon.co...ds=superlux evo


 


AKG K240s - My personal go-to pair for gaming as well as music - $65


http://www.amazon.co...-1&keywords=akg


 


NVX XPT100 - these are hella comfy and worth their price - $99


http://www.amazon.co...ords=nvx xpt100


Signature unda construction... in the meantime. Tell me more about yourself. I'm sure you've got an interesting story.

Superlux HD668B and buy some Velour Earpads for them on ebay.
