Hey everyone. I'm new here, and am trying to decide on a good set of budget headphones. I'd like not to spend much over $50 and had Initially decided on the HA-RX700's but I found the 900's for a little more and figured they would be best. However, after reading a few threads the SR850's seem to be highly recommended and I was wondering how they stand up to the 900's and also if there are any other budget headphones I should consider. I will be doing gaming as well as listening to music and I'm no audiophile (yet) so tiny details don't matter as much.

I vote Samson SR850, maybe down the line you can get improved (Velour or Velvet) ear pads for them.

I've decided to go with the Sr850's after looking at some more threads and reviews. I've also found out that they are almost the exact same as the Superlux HD668b but I was wondering were there any real differences that would make me consider one over the other?

Soundwise i found them to be very similar.
