Been looking into getting some decent sound with the rig that I'm currently building but am not sure what makes a good headset or what specs to look for. I am looking specifically for Mid/high-ranged full circumaural headphones that don't need/rely too heavily on an amp(although not necessarily), are pretty bass-heavy and have good soundstage. My budget maxes out at ~300$ but I am easily convinced (hehe).
I generally listen to every type of music leaning more towards electronic, sometimes very bassy music and rock/metal.
On the other hand I am also a gamer and while I have no interest in 985563568403.1 surround or endorsements by Fatal1ty or 44z L1ck3r, or whatever "gamer-oriented"..... I do appreciate a game with a good ambient soundtrack and noise. So if the headphones could improve my gaming experience in the sound department, that would be ace! An in-built mic (headset) would be handy too but that gets the LEAST priority.
On a side note, I'd like to get some opinions on a good soundcard to go with the headphones. As of now I'm holding on to Creative's soundblaster x-fi titanium hd.
THANKS!
