HD600 for gaming?

Go to solution Solved by Max_Settings,

HD600 is terrible for gaming. No sound stage and no bass. 650s are better for gaming.

So i plan on buying the sennheiser HD600 with an schiit magni 3 and modi 2 uber since i do listen to music quite a bit.

But i also game quite a "bit" and i read that with the HD600´s you hear "to much" from games like shitty and low quality audio and music.

Should i get an additional pair of gaming headphones for when i play games or am i going to be fine?

 

Thanks in advance.

That was also what I read last time. Music is going to sound awesome on HD600 with DAC or AMP. But not so much on games. Personally I end up didn't purchase the HD600 as I don't really listen to music as often as I like. Most time would be spend on YouTube or games nowadays.
