Hello, I pretty much narrowed it down to the AT AD500x/AD700x

 

In the UK the 500's go for around £90 and the 700x go for around £160

 

My question is, should I go for a used pair of 700x's with a few light scratches for £80 or just get the brand new 500s for £90, I did read the the audio quality were similar between the two, I'm mainly using it for gaming and want a headset with excellent positional audio, if anyone else wants to chime in and suggest any other headsets feel free.

For headsets I wouldn't go used because the cables might be damaged but if you go with the used option test them when you go to buy them

Thanks I managed to order through amazon US and get them for about £110 brand new for the 600s.
