serman the one that i purchased and came broken where the hp150´:/ the akg 553 aren't available in europe I think closed cans are preferable since they offer some kind of isolation and sound leakage must be almost non existent Hmm, i think the cloud II comfort is just excellent since...

Well bad news. As i was unwrapping the main cable from the plastic zip thingy that holds it in a compact form, the cable broke off its plastic/rubber cover it felt dry and cheap. I got to test them for about 2 days before i returned them, they are exactly like the cloud 2, obviously different...

Done, i have bought them without the amazon security thingy, seems a bit shady to pay 20£ for it Thank you a lot serman005!

That's exactly what i want. Although i hear about the design flaw where it may break easily. I prioritize music over gaming, i was still researching but i think i will buy the hp 150 with the amazon 2 or 3 year protection maybe

Quote: Sorry for dropping out and not reaching an conclusion, had really bad problems lately. Need to spend money on a good set of headphones. I have been researching your suggestions, and since i have tried the 598's and did not liked at them at all(don't really remember the reason). The...

The AKG K553 Pro seems to be only available to the US market Been reading reviews of the soundmagic HP150 they seem to be pretty good for the value although i didn't found any comparison to the cloud 2/revolver I would prefer closed cans, but i am willing to try more open cans. I say this...

My budget would be a maximum of 150€, but seeing i can get the hyper x revolver delivered to my doorstep for 94€ i wonder if there are better options

At the moment, they are at the same price at amazon, i dont mind paying a bit more money if i can get a better set of cans with better sound

Unfortunately i need new headphones, and i was looking at buying the revolver for 95€, but not sure if i should buy it.   My experience: vsonic gr07 <- my portable earphones, the signature is somewhat comparable, these having some ear-hurting high's in some frequencies HiFiMAN RE-400 RHA...

The headphones just arrived, grabbed them and tried them. Jesus Christ. No burn in, no EQ, simple plug in and test. Tried Metallica Blackened, the bass is really strong without distorting it has tons of volume to go, I for one, prefer medium level of sound, about 40-50% windows volume...

Thanks a lot for your feedback, i have just purchased, it would arrive this week, can't wait....

I just got refunded, am going for the MDR-XB950AP in a few hours, am still open for recommendations and suggestions, please do, i also need to buy from amazon..

They are actually in most sites, i posted a link above to the amazon http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-MDR-XB950AP-Premium-Overhead-Headphones/dp/B00NBR6QKC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1451778135&sr=8-1&keywords=XB950AP   I live in Portugal, i will have to ship from somewhere in Europe, the bet sites i...

This is hard... maybe i will just get the 950AP, and if i am not happy i will return them, but that makes me feel like a duche... Have you got a recommendation for a pricier headphones that fits these needs?

I see, maybe i should up my budget... Heard really good about the noise cancellation on Bose quiet comfort headphone family, but maybe the ANC will affect too much.. i would rather have passive than active noise isolation.
