Im a newbie to headphones, barely know anything, but im looking for budget headphones that have good sound quality and soundstage, since i will be using them for gaming and some music.
And the Samson SR850 fits all i need, but i have some questions about them
Are there any other headphones around its price range that are better than these? like i said, for music and gaming, soundstage and all. I heard m50x's are great but they dont have the soundstage im looking for, so im happy to see any recommendations.
And if i do buy the sr850s, what are good replacement pads that dont ruin sound and let my ears breath.
i cant find k240 pads anywhere

Some other cheap open headphones: Philips SHP9500 (i like them) and Takstar 2050 we also have some Superlux headphones but they are kinda the same as Samson and reading a lot I think i prefer the Samson.

We have some good closed cans on this range but the soundstage will never compare to open ones. I can list the Sony MDR V6, Shure 440 and the M40x (better than the M50, more balanced, less bass cheaper).

The Samson for its price might be one of the best options, i read it had less quality on mid and highs than the 9500 but more bass and better soundstage
