Headphones/Headset under $50?

[That Sneaky Assassin]

So recently I've been thinking about purchasing a headphone or headset for everyday use( I will be Gaming for the most part and I love to listen to music while I work.)

I have some trouble looking for something to fit my needs.  As of right now my budget is about $50 but I can go up a little if there is major improvement.

I already have a microphone:

But maybe getting a clip-on mic would be better? such as a Mod Mic.

Now here is the main issue, Should I buy a 'gaming' headset such as the HyperX Cloud Stinger: https://www.amazon.com/HyperX-Stinger-Nintendo-HX-HSCS-BK-NA/dp/B01L2ZRYVE/ref=pd_sbs_147_3?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B01L2ZRYVE&pd_rd_r=THRN7FMXQ08HB9HVPS7V&pd_rd_w=34XH8&pd_rd_wg=bi5wv&psc=1&refRID=THRN7FMXQ08HB9HVPS7V

Or should I go with a audiophile headphone such as the AKG M220 that I found on massdrop: https://www.massdrop.com/buy/massdrop-x-akg-m220-pro-headphones

I feel that immersion is a core part when listening to anything so in this aspect I think that having a wider sound stage would be better. 

and when i listen to music I don't really like bass too much since I feel that it overwhelms the mids and highs. A balanced or 'brighter' headphones would be nice since I like to listen to the strong vocals and detail.

I would love to hear feedback and recommendations from you guys and if you have questions for me Please feel free to ask.

I never heard of that AKG headphone and idk how it perform.

As for $50 headphone the superlux HD668B and Corsair HS50 (headset) received a good reviews in a lot of places.

Stinger is a good headset according to hardwarecanucks but it feels cheap because of 100% plastic material.

The HS50 has better build quality it is also semi open so you'll have wider sound stages the same goes for HD668B.

I find myself always buying cheap headphones when they're on sale, and so far the best set of cans I've bought have been the JBL Syncros S300 from Newegg for $30 on sale.

 

All metal build, memory foam cups, powerful bass, great highs, and comfortable to wear.

Sadly I don't seem to see them there anymore.

 

Personally, I prefer headphones with a seperate microphone. I have a Neewer NW700 condenser microphone that I use when I need to communicate, otherwise I'm usually just wearing headphones for media consumption.
