Which head phone is better for gaming? I dont care about the HD595 being open because i will not be around any one to bother or for them to bother me, i am just looking for the pair that has the best Positional audio for gaming. I will be playing FPS from XBOX 360 using a JVC Dolby headphone adapter. Let me know I plan on purchasing tommorrow online from Amazon for either I beleive. Unless you can find me a better deal out of US.

Thanks
OH and these are going to be unamped as well.

AHH add the DT770 PRO in there as well...

Take the A900 - almost as good as DT770, but works fine ampless. Can even be used for music listening...

BUMP. DT770's are off the list still between the 595s and the a900s.

They are actually designed to be used for music listening not gaming

IMHO most headphones explicitly designed for "gaming" purposes are complete crap

Topic: Another vote for the A900. Good headstage, more bass quantity than HD595, overall performance better for gaming IMHO. Also works well with dolby headphone. If it's about Jazz or classical music I'd probably prefer the HD595 which sounds more smooth and laid-back.

i am I heavy gamer and rock/metal listener with some beastie boys thrown in the mix and I love the A900's
