What headphone should I get for around 100-150 CAD?

Hello guys I really want a upgrade on my headphone and my budget is 100-150 CAD, I will use them for gaming and a little for listening to music, they don't have to have a mic in them beacause I already have one. THX in advanced

The AKG K553 PRO when they're on sale at Massdrop are about $120 USD which is about $160 CAD and I would HIGHLY suggest them. They are closed so you can wear them in noisier environments or at night without disturbing your neighbors and they have a very open soundstage for an closed headphone! Another option is the Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro if you can save up to go up to $150 USD or about $190 CAD.Alternately if you want to go open you could go with a Sennheiser HD518/558, the HD558 goes for $99 USD so about $130 CAD .
