Hello.
I'am looking for full-size headphones for music (30%) and pc games (70%) for home using only.
<170$
Sound card - Creative Sound BlasterX G5
I have large head so i want feel comfortable.
Previously i had ATH-40X - i liked sound but absolutelly not comfortable for me. I felt pain on both sides of head. Also ugly plastic cracking sound when i turn my head.
May be ISK HD9999 or Sennheiser HD598 ?
Thank you.

The 598 is amazing for gaming and gives a nice natural sound to music. It's my daily driver and the only thing I'd ever replace it with is the new version or the HD800

Thank you.
HD599 not a new version?

+1 for the HD598. Also check out the Audio Technica AD700 and AD900.

HD 598 vs DT 990 Pro ?

HD 598 vs DT 990 Pro ?

(I own the HD558 and DT990)
Two very different headphones, while the DT990 has a strong bass/treble, which slightly over shadows the mids, but the mids are still clear.
The HD598 would be more neutral (I own the HD558 and DT990).
I do prefer the Soundmagic HP200 over the DT990.
