So I have a pair of M50's that are nothing but great that I use daily and take with me everywhere. I have had Astro A40's for the last few years and just recently the left headphone has basically snapped off. After doing a small amount of research I think I've decided on getting a good pair of headphones and a head microphone that I plan on velcro-ing to the new headphones instead of a branded "gaming" headset as they now seem to me as quite a ripoff and more of a marketing ploy. I plan on using my Astro MixAmp with the new cans to give simulated surround. This will work with just about any headphones right? My question to you wonderful people of head-fi is what pair of cans would you recommend to be a "leave at the desk" pair that plugs into an Astro MixAmp? I don't have a separate sound card but my mobo (Extreme4) I think has decent integrated sound (unless the MixAmp serves this purpose???), and if not is it worth getting one? I wanna spend preferably under 200$ for the headphones but if it's really worth it, I'd be willing to spend more. Thanks in advance!
