Posted December 25, 2015 I'm look for a good pair of headphones to use for my ultimate gaming experience, my budget is $125 - $150. I'm using a beautiful yeti as my microphone and I'm missing my sound. What's a great pair of headphones that I could get within that price range? I'd like 7 .1 surround too.

Posted December 25, 2015 Just letting you know, 7.1 is a gimmick. You have two ears and headphones are less than an inch from ears. Your brain is the only thing that can build audio positioning. Generally speaking most people will like the ATH-M50x the best (closed headphones). Good bass, and supports the V-Moda Mic. If you want better sound stage go for ATH-AD900X/AD700X (open headphones) + modmic Full list of the most commonly talked about headphones and their specs LINK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted December 25, 2015 Dt770's are very good and very comfortable and relatively good soundstage ( better than the ATH M50's) but naturally worse than open back headphones Hey there.

Though currently, I would probably go for Sennheiser's HD 598: http://amzn.com/B0126HISOO Personally, I'm currently using AKG K273 Pro (with DT 770 earpads), which are a slight variation of K272 HD: http://amzn.com/B0012XZAXG I own and use, sorted from newest to oldest: SteelSeries 6Gv2. Microsoft SideWinder X4. Mionix Naos 7000. Zowie EC1 Evo. Microsoft SideWinder X8. Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer 3.0. Dell U2414H. Samsung P2270H. AKG K273 Pro. Sennheiser HD555. Razer Goliathus Speed Medium. Func 1030 L. Qpad CT Medium. I used to own: Razer DeathAdder 3G. Razer Krait. IntelliMouse Optical 1.1. SteelSeries QcK.
