Headphone upgrade suggestions

[2PartAuthentication]

Looking to upgrade my HD598s for a better gaming and music listening experience. 

Got a budget of around 400-450 USD (incl. shipping). Currently have the E10K Olympus DAC/AMP.

Also, I own the AT M50x's and I prefer the larger soundstage of the Senns, so I'm hesitating getting a closed back pair

Mostly playing Rainbow Six: Siege and listening to EDM (mostly bounce, hardstyle and progressive house), electro-pop and some trap.

Thanks!

Closed back, A1000Z. Open back HD660S

Thanks for the suggestion. Sadly the 660S don't ship here from Amazon and are available for about 580USD locally, so pretty much way out of my budget

Any other suggestions?

I am selling a pair for $350 USD + shipping if you are interested. Brand new and unopened.

Now we know why he was recommending it.

 

Shure SRH1540 is great if you want closed back

That’s not why at all. They are very good gaming headphones. You can check out my review.

The shameless plugs continue!!! Although I am curious, how did you manage to review a closed, unopened pair of headphones?

 

 

 

For the record, I understand that you may have two pairs...
