New Head-Fier
I am looking for a headphone that is a great all-rounder, if I had to make a descending list of activities (based on time spent) - Movies/Series > Games > Youtube/Twitch > Music. I have only ever really owned headsets, my last two were Sennheiser PC 350 & 360. My mic stopped working on the PC350 after 3 yrs and my current PC360 volume wheel is almost entirely broken (98% of positions can only hear out of 1 ear). After realizing there are very few mediocre headsets to choose from I started looking at headphones since there are a few attachable mics you can buy (such as modmic).
I have read a lot of reviews on homestudiobasics.com & Youtube (especially Metal571's channel). I already have a used dac/amp from a friend that supports up-to 600ohms. The headphones I am gravitating towards most are Sennheiser 600/650, V Moda Crossfade M100, Philips Fidelio X2, Hifiman HE400I. There's also the Oppo PM3 & Beyerdynamic DT1990 but they are currently far out of my price range. My plan is to wait for Black Friday, the 600/650 are out of my price range but I listed them anyway in the hope they would drop in price during Black Friday since they are one of the most recommended.
Must be over-ear & comfortable to wear for long periods I really love the comfortably of the PC360 I have now, I could wear them all day and not have any discomfort. I am looking for accurate, clarity, well balanced, detailed bass, non-fatiguing. Although I have heard a lot of praise for the HD600 I have also heard ppl prefer other headphones within the same (or lower) price range, I just wanted to get some more opinions as someone who has never had a good pair of Hi-Fi headphones, thanks.
