Hiya, I'm looking for the best sound quality gaming headphones. I've narrowed down to what i think is some of the best for the price range im going for.
 
Audio Technica ATH-M50X
Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro
AKG K612 Pro
Philips Fidelio X1 or X2
 
Is there any previous or newer versions of these headphones that are better that i should know about?
Opinions on these headphones?
 
If you have any suggestions down a comment.
Requirements:
Full Size
Preferably open back
Between £100-£200 ($157.17 to $314.34, I'd go over my budget but not by alot.)
 
Thanks in advance

Hello sorry to tell you you should get rid of the ath m50x are terrible hate me if you want my 50pound sony headphones i got 4 years ago sound better for gaming im serouis i think they are really overated it sounds very muddy compared to most other headphones at that price however this is simply my ears my opoin it may not be the same for others.

Its not the first time ive heard this, people said if im really wanting the ath-m50x get the m50s instead but its not that far on my list its probably one of the lowest on my list.
Thanks for the feedback

No problem im looking for new cans to really not sure i may go for the DT770 pro and i would get the 990s of course heavy sound leakage keep that in mind for the 990s and also the m50s also i owned a pair before my m50x until i woke up they are even worse they are simply a lower modle of the m5ox and hoenstly worse wouldnt get them either tbh.

Is the best Beyerdynamic DT not the 990 pro at my price range, I think I'd go to 250 for a good pair

 

[Donnyboy98]

Is the DT 990 pro not the best of the DT range in my price range? Is older versions better?

 

[BlueInfinity]

not that much newer yes its better if huge sound leakage is not a problem to you.

 

[Donnyboy98]

Which would you say is better DT 990 pro or DT 990 premium?

 

[BlueInfinity]

dont have any exoereince with the  DT 990 Premium

 

[Donnyboy98]

The reviews are amazing for the premium

Sennheiser HD 650 seem like good headphones, #1 on head-fi list of over ear headphones. hmmm

 

[BlueInfinity]

meh i wouldnt get them just me i guess i personally think the DT770's would own them anyday And its in a compeltly diffrent price range and the dt770s are cheap as hell on amazon however these have nothing off them.They say they are hundred quid down they were almost always 250.

 

[Donnyboy98]

Have you tried the sennheiser hd 650?

 

[BlueInfinity]

yes my freind has one its not bad but its way more expensive than the DT770S so its not fair to compare em or anything on your list for that matter.

So they are overhyped just like audio technica
