New Headphones

[Tanner69046]

Ive been using beats for years now sadly. (I know it's bad) so what are the best gaming headphones to have? I'm willing to chip in a couple hundred dollars if I have to. I would also like them to be noise cancelling. It's not a war game unless the PTSD kicks in amirite.

Sennheiser g4me zeros are awesome. No complaints. Got mine for 200 on amazon. Prices are a bit high right now though. What games you play?

you might better off with something like a blue snowball and a pair of audio technica M50x's

Good, stick with that for the mic and do NOT purchase the M50, TERRIBLE choice for gaming. The M50X is like a plague in these forums and it's quite a nuisance.

 

Like I mentioned in another thread, the M50X is NOT a bad headphone, it's a good headphone.... But NOT for gaming, and on top of that it is horribly overpriced and overhyped, the M40X is a much more sensible purchase if the M50X has your interest, but again, NOT for gaming.

 

As I mentioned in another thread, for gaming, I would look at the Sennheiser HD558 or Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro, both these headphones should be had for $160 and under with the 558 currently selling for $99. If you need a CLOSED set of cans due to a noisy home, I would suggest the NVX XPT100 that sells for $99.

Agree with everything except the closed recommendation, I would look at the DT 770's or even the M40x instead for closed.

For closed, the 770 is another great choice!

soo i didnt want to make a new post since this is similar to what I want to ask too... so my JVC HA RX700 have serve me EXTREMELY well for very cheap price over these past couple years. I wondering if anyone know a good headphone for around $50 that is overears? 

I'm picky on sound quality but built wise i dont mind it much. Just please no gamer headphone like turtle beach or something like that.
