I currently have some ATH-M50's and a Logitech G35 headset, for music and gaming on my PC respectively, and I am looking to replace both of these with a pair of decent open cans. They will be used for music(mainly alt rock plus a bit of everything else), and gaming with virtual surround. I have been looking at Mad Lust Envy's guide and that has been very helpful, and I have seen a few different options recommended here on the forums, such as the AD700, FA-011, SR80i, and HD598(this one is probably a bit out of my price range). At first the AD700 seemed appealing but I have read that they are lacking a bit in the bass department, and I would like to have something fairly even and neutral sounding if possible, though I'm guessing a little bit of colour is probably unavoidable at this price range.
Currently they would just be plugged straight into my sound card(X-Fi Xtreme Audio PCI-E), but I'm considering getting something like the Fiio E10 to power them eventually.
Do you guys have any recommendations? I'm sure there are plenty of other models that I haven't heard of yet.
