Hello
 
I am currently looking for a headphone to improve on my Sennheiser G4me One headset. This headphone will be purely for gaming with some music listening. I have been looking at the Sennheiser HD700 (maximum budget) however I can hardly find people's opinion on it for a gaming experience. How do you find it with gaming, or do you think the HD600/HD650 are a better option for gaming.
 
I will be using a JDS Labs The Element AMP/DAC (maximum budget) to power the headphones
 
Thanks

check the Massdrop K7xx or K712pros they are one of the best headphones for overall usage, the 650 is better for music and vocals (deep warm mids with a narrower soundstage), the HD700 are sharp in the highs and some people seem to dislike it without tube/warm amps.

I'm not that knowledgeable with AMP/DACs. If I was to get the JDS Lab The Element, would that work well with the HD700. Is that a warm AMP do you know?
