    What´s a good small headphone upgrade (sidegrade) fitting with the Asus Xonar Essence STX ii?

    I had been very happy with my Sennheiser PC360, bougth in 2012, for both gaming and music, but the microphone just died and one of the grilles of the earcups is rusted (how?.. I dunno).

    Good desktop speakers under.. let's say 800$.

    I've owned a pair of Fostex 0.4n nearfield monitors for a while, and they seemed to do well with my Asus Xonar Essence STX, actually all of it purchased according to a recommendation here. (I know it's a card that's great for driving headphones primarily, and I will get back to that in a short...
