I am wanting some new headphones to use mainly for PC gaming and music (again mainly PC, but possibly iPhone, but not that necessary).
At the moment I have some Audio Technica ATH-A900 that I have had for a few years which have seen better days.
 
As said, I will mainly use them for PC gaming (Battlefield, Rainbow Six) so want good quality clear cans where I can pick out sounds and know exactly where they are coming from.
I am a bit (lot) of a noob when it comes to headphones, so not sure if its best to get open or closed (or even what the difference is).
I want to spend a max of £200 and want over the ears. Sounds leakage is not that important.
 
The 3 I have been looking at are the:
 
Deonon AH-MM400

AKG K702

Audio-Technica ATH-MSR7GM

Also open to any other suggestions.
 
With the Denons I would have to buy an extension cable as its only about 1.4mtr long, where the AKG is about 3mtr long.

If audio leaking out is not an issue and you live in a quiet environment.
Check out the 32-Ohm Soundmagic HP200 semi-open headphones.

Thanks for reply. Checked out reviews and they seem good with decent bass.
Why do you recommend them?

Because I really like my HP200s

​Thanks again.
 
So I take it they have a nice wide sound stage (where you can pin point enemies) for PC gaming with decent bass?
 
Sorry for noob questions, I just don't want to make a mistake at this price.

Any AD in particular?
Would open be better than closed?

I have had my DT880 Premiums 250 ohms for going on 3yrs now... I have used them almost exclusively while gaming since getting them... I quite like the quality and comfort..  Comfort is really unmatched by anything else I have tried personally.

Well, ended up with a Beyerdynamic T90.

Little bit more than I wanted to pay, but WOW, what a set of headphones

The Beyer T90 is my preferred headphone for all listening.
