My Sennheiser HD 555 have recently been physically damaged beyond repair [the gold plated connectors are bent out of shape, butchering the fidelity of these once excellent headphones]
I need to replace these with a decent pair of stereo headphones or surround sound headset [where the surround sound is not simply a gimmick]
I have a price range of ~$150-200
* I live in Canada, and there is slight inflation for certain products, and more elusive headphones are not an option.
Keep in mind I already have:
Sound Card: Auzentech X-Fi Prelude
Mic: Zalman ZM-Mic 1
* I do not have an external amp, but am willing to buy one if required as long as it doesn't go too far over budget.
I use my headphones at home only, in place of speakers. I mainly use it for music and gaming. [namely FPS - positional audio is important] I also occasionally watch videos, but the priority is music > gaming > movies. Noise canceling is optional [I don't mind either way, but sound quality is paramount]
Thanks in advance.
