Monitors or Headphones

[uribin117]

So currently I have the Logitech Z506 5.1 speakers and the Razer Tiamat 2.2 Headset plugged directly to my motherboard

I have a little extra cash so I want to improve my audio experience

 

So if I go with Studio Monitors I have 3 options, M-Audio AV40, M-Audio AV30 or Mackie CR4

The other path is M50X and a Fiio E10K and later on an X1

 

The use will be mainly for games,movies and music

Genre: Glitch Hop, Rock, Metal, Instrumental

I want bass but something balanced not overpowered

I'd upgrade headphones first.

Headphones first but those 50x are kinda over rated. There are better for the money out there.

Good summary. Not gaming cans apparently.

Check out the Brainwaves HM5 or Gemini HSR-1000. More comfortable and killer sound. I bought the Gemini cans with the HM5 pads....I liked them better than my $250 Beyerdynamic DT770's.
