Sennheiser HD212Pro/HD202 vs Creative Aurvana Live! Help Please

Hello,

So i'm looking for my first pair of headphones (excluding $10 cans)

I listen to music a lot .. specifically R&B, but I also listen to rock, metal, classical, pop .. I listen to anything lol. I do play games, but nothing serious, I like to play FPS or RTS games in my free time

I was looking at headphones, and I ran into the Sennheiser 212s, and the Creative Aurvana Live headphones, and I need help deciding.

I live in Canada, so headphones here are overpriced compared to US prices from what i've seen, and it is also harder to find good headphones.

Thanks

I've had a Sennheiser HD212Pro. In my opinion, they're very uncomfortable and the bass is huge and bloated.

I've not heard the 212 but between the 202 and CAL! there's no comparison. The Creatives just wipe the floor with them, as well they should at ~3x the price.

CAL's are basically the same headphone as D1000.... OEM Fosters...same driver. Bought mine to mod: recable and markl mod. The CAL's were on sale at amazon for a day or two for 55.xx, which i think was a great price.
