Headphone Under 200 AUD

[desertcomputer]

I have been looking for a headphone under 200 dollars, I recently hear a friends Sennheiser HD 598 Dynamic and sound bloody amazing compare to my current headphones the hyper x core. I was wondering which one the selection should I upgrade for daily usages and use my old ones for gaming.  I had some spare money from a project so why not?

 

If you guys have any other suggestion feel to reply your suggestion as i happy with new product as long i as can buy it in Australia from website such as (PCCASEGEAR, MWAVE, UMART etc) or retailers but i dont there prices are good or have a good range ... mostly i see it BEATS, MONSTER etc. 

 

I don't really have preferred sound signature.    

 

Sennheiser HD518 Open Air Headphones

Sennheiser HD380 PRO Headphones

Audio technica Ath-M50x

 

Thanks in advance.

if you really love the HD 598, then get the HD558, they sound 95% the same as the HD598 and with a simple mod 99.9999% the same.

Just a suggestion of a different brand to change things up; but you can get Beyerdynamic Dt 770 headphones for around the same cost and the 558/598 from storedj.com.au, which are pretty awesome headphones in terms of sound and usability. If not then the Sony MDR 7506A are pretty strong and well under $200

Uh, no. The MDR-1A is a closed headphone. Tonally different, not "better".

some people like the shp9500 more than the HD558, they have a bit more bright treble and you cannot remove the pads.
