How about HD201? 8323>HD201? I game in a pretty loud environment and I want something a little more closed off.

What is your budget for the headphones? Of the two listed I've not heard the 201, but I may know of some in your range that are decent and closed other than the Monoprice.
I found the HD 201 sibilant and uncomfortable when I heard it personally.
hmm. Well I guess the HD201's are out of the picture. I'm leaning towards the KSC75's but outside noise might be a problem.
MLE reviewed the SHP2500 on the first post. Might be able to find that in your price range. Could a semi open headphone work for you? The Superlux HD681 and HD681 EVO can both be had for that price.
The Superlux HD681 looks interesting. I could do with a semi-open. Would you choose hd681 > the ksc75?
If you need the added isolation to help block some outside noise, absolutely. The KSC75 doesn't block anything at all. They are the definition of open headphones.
They look nice, but dos pleather ear cushions drive me nuts. I guess you might be able to replace them, most manufacturers charge and arm and leg for them though either up front or in shipping.
What sound card (pc) do u guys recommend for the dt 990 pro 250ohm
Surround sound is sort of a necessity for competitive gaming and the AX720+ is the cheapest that has that.
Also you can use it not only with the PC but with almost any console.
PS4
Xbox one
PS3
Xbox 360
Another thing is that it lets you balance game/chat volume so you can get the perfect balance between the two, the other headsets you mentioned doesn't have that and I'm 100% sure your not going to like that for online gaming.....nobody does.
Creative Labs Sound Blaster Z sound card (SB1500), $100, sometimes goes on sale for as low as $65.
Thanks mate,
I was checking the blaster z earlier and i heard alot of bad opinions about the drivers, I think I will buy the Essence STX in second hand for 90 euros (110 $) , i think its the best option , right?
Essence STX for $110 is a great value, better DAC and head amp then the Sound Blaster Z (& Zx).
and the STX's headphone output impedance is 10-Ohm, better then the Z or Zx's 22-Ohm impedance.
