Not sure of wich to choose, need help.

Well, as is in the title im not sure of wich headphone should i choose.

 

I have a pair of Siberia v2, well i know, they are overrated, and an headset. The problem is that i bought an Asus Xonar DG and with the amp the problem of having a strange noise (vibration/crackling) while listening music/playing in high volume in  siberia v2.

 

I searched and im not sure between these two:

 

 

Panasonic RP-HTF600E-S
Creative Aurvana Live!
 
I can buy the panasonic ones cheaper than the creative, but dunno what is the best, i like bass because i often listen dubstep/dnb, but sometimes some rock/metal. For gaming i read that RP-HTF600E-S are better to that objective, but im not sure too.
 
Well, these are my choices, but im not an audiophile so i dont know what are the best choices in the 40 euro price range like the ones that i presented before.
 
@One more question, any of that headphones would outperform greatly the siberia v2 wouldnt they?
 
Thanks.

I dislike the Panasonic HTF600's quite a lot.  Muddy bass, weak mids, no clarity in any register.  Poor quality pads that get hot quickly.   I've gotten rid of my pair.

 

The CAL's are an excellent choice, especially if you can find them on sale.  They occasionally go as low as $55-60.  Warm tone, good bass but not overpowering into the mids.  Also a good choice for gaming.  The only thing they don't do well is isolate you from exterior noise.

Well, thanks for your awnser, im really confused right now, i saw a lot of reviews and good things were said of the panasonic (great bass, excelent choice, like they perform like a 90$ can) ... i can buy the CAL for 45 euros and the Panasonic for 35 euros (about 20$ difference i think), i dont know much about the CAL so at this point im currently choosing the panasonic.

 

I would like to hear more opinions as i want to make a good choice.
