Newbie in need of headphone help.

Hello head-fi community, 

 

I have recently been looking at some new headphones to purchase for Gaming, DJing and Casual Listening (All via the PC).

I'm looking about spending around £120 and have been looking at the AD700's and the M50's, but i have read some threads on here talking about the variety of cans on the market. 

 

I'm looking for a headset that is well balanced with a good bass.

 

Appreciate the help,

 

Thanks,

Razargh.

What genres of music do you listen to? Do you want a bass-heavy can or just good bass with a neutral sound? Would you also be using them with an iPod or other MP3 player?

I'm kinda an all rounder for music, but i do listen to dubstep etc on occasion.

 

I have a Creative X-Fi Titanium card also, would this be good enough for sound quality alone or will i need an amp?

 

I wouldn't like a "heavy" bass just one that is punchy with a good neutral sound, these will not be used with an mp3 etc just the PC.

It is stated in the first post, but £100-130

If you're looking for something neutral in that price range, the Fischer Audio FA-003/Brainwavz HM5/LINDY Premium Hi-Fi (they're all pretty much the same can, though official specifications have not confirmed that they're exact copies) is a great up-and-comer. It is light, well-built, has a great soundstage, exceptional instrument separation, and isolates sound well. It's one of the best deals currently out there.

 

Sincerely,
