I'm searching for the one for all headphone where the focus will be single player games (Action/Adventure/RPG) and movies/tv shows (music would be secondary in this case).
I have these in mind:
Open back:
Phillips Fidelio X2: I've tried them and they sound amazing, very wide soundstage and a little bassy. But they are huge for my head. Any smaller alternative out there?
Sennheiser HD 58X: As far as i know they are on par with the Fidelio X2, maybe a little more comfy? But they look big too.
Closed back:
Sennheiser HD 25: The size look perfect, i haven't tried them. But of what i read they deliver quality and have some isolation too. (i live in a very noisy urban zone)
Creative Aurvana Live!: The cheapper of the bunch. I don't know if they are such a monster to compete with the rest of the list.
Bose QC 35 II (Bluetooth): Maybe the only advantage here is the noise isolation and mobility.
My budget no more than $150.
Which one would you pick? If you have any others suggestions you are welcome.
Thanks!
