Hi all,
I'm going to be ordering a new set of headphones in the near future, and was looking for an expert opinion.
I was going to get a proper gaming headset, probably this one - http://www.corsair.com/en-in/vengean...gaming-headset - but then I started seeing more and more audio forums saying that the sound quality is terrible on them, and it is far better to get a dedicated set of headphones and a separate microphone.
My question is, what do you guys recommend? I will be using them for gaming quite a bit, but I also want to be able to listen to music on a fairly regular basis. My checklist would be this:
-good audio quality across treble, mid and bass
-decent thump to the bass but not overpowering like beats are
-decent soundstage for positioning
-either closed or semi-closed back because I'd rather hear what's coming out of the headphones not what's coming out of the radio in the next room
I already know what I'll do for a microphone so don't worry about that but if you've had a set that you used for similar purposes or that you know would be good then I'd appreciate the advice. my budget is around $150 (90gbp), but I can pay more if it will make a huge difference, and I know that amazon has some stuff pretty cheap right now.
Thanks
