Title explains the basics, I'm looking to finally get some good headphones.
I'll mostly be using them on my computer. Right now I have Astro A40s with the mixamp pro. I also have a Soundblaster Z soundcard. I mostly listen to metal (Dream Theater, Blind Guardian, Devin Townsend, Between the Buried and Me, Animals as Leaders, Cryptopsy) and play video games.
Being able to use them on the go with my phone on occasion would be nice, but isn't a big deal. I know my phone (LG V10) has a good DAC, but I doubt it could power much of anything. Besides, I've got LG Tone Infiniums for portable in most cases.
I was considering Audio Technica ATH-M50s or Beyderdynamic DT990s, but I'm open to suggestions for anything. I'm looking to spend $200 or less. I'm looking for something with really good clarity, and good punchy bass you can really feel. Only other thing I'd like is headphones that suppress sound pretty well. My girlfriend often complains she can hear what I'm listening to from about 10 feet away even if I don't have it turned up very loud.
Thanks in advance.
