Headphone/Headset Recommendations

Hi!

I'm currently trying to find a decent pair of Headphones/Headset that has great bass but still blends well with the highs and the mids. I'm looking into just buying a separate microphone from AntLion's ModMic if there aren't any good headsets that suit my preferences. :)

around $150 - $200. I currently don't have a soundcard but when the need arises, I'll get one

My recommendation would be the Beyerdynamic DT770 pro, now if you have a headphone amp you can get the 250ohm, if not you could get the 80ohm ones which will be okay without one, but when you decide to get a soundcard with an amp or whatever they ll sound great. And they have great bass ( im using them now and i love them )

I would look at the Sony MA900 as they have great bass due to the 70mm drivers but they are open backed so you still get that airy natural sound.
