Beyerdynamic DT 990 are about 150, nice open headphones. Both people with requests to sound and casual listeners enjoy (me and my wife as example). They are built very well. My pair is 12 years old and as new when I replace ear pads. They do have very high level of sound quality and detail, hard to beat in leven double price range. I play games, listen and create music in them, due to mindful construction and open back they can be worn for a long time. Sound is open, crisp, with a lot of highs and pretty detailed. If you don't have anything to drive them, take 80ohm. If you need more volume or better sound, consider cheap, good sounding digital audio converter (DAC) and amplifier - check FIIO brand for example, ka11 (40$) is good and very portable, I also use it with my steam deck. But there are other models cheaper.
Sennheisers have a lot of good pairs, but I cannot recommend anything from expirience, Audio Technica is Japanese company and their headphones are good sounding, but a lot of their headphones are fragile.
Overall aim for open headphones as they are better when you wear them for long periods like during gaming. And use return policy to your advantage.
Sennheiser sold off their consumer headset decision, it's now just a licensed name. They also stopped selling spare parts! Very annoyed.
That sucks, did not know, happy I am that both my Beyerdynamics and audio technica headphones are still repairable though. At least majority of parts.
Damn, so that's why I cannot get replacement pads for my HD 599.
Had to get mine on Amazon. โน๏ธ
Fine if it's a popular enough headset.... But for how long?
Thanks for the recommendation. They seem like good solid headphones, though they don't support bluetooth? While I would use the headphones mostly for gaming on my computer, I might occasionally want to use them for some other stuff, that might not have an AUX port.
You kinda have to choose between Bluetooth connectivity and being "good headphones" (sound, build quality, comfort) at this price range. Or, you could get a cheapish Bluetooth receiver and plug into that
If you already have another pair or buds, I would just use them instead for scenarios outside of your working/gaming place, because there will be compromises.
I can't recommend much, but I also have Anker Space Q45, they are closed, have optional jack cable connection, Bluetooth with LDAC (high Bitrate Bluetooth codec), quality is OK and sound is not bad, they do have very good active noise canceling. If I had to choose only one pair, I would check them out. It's just that if you mostly game an Kosten music by computer, Beyerdynamics DT 990 a lre on another level of l quality, longevity and), comfort and sound.
