Audio Technica is making gaming headphones so those should be interesting
So im assuming you already have a DSS or a mixamp? Stretch your budget a bit and add $50. You can get the Fidelio X1 for $250 from amazon. They will go back to $300 next month.
Im looking for an Closed / Semi-Open Headphone for Gaming (mostly CoD) for my Friend. He does have an really loud PC so open Headphones are a no-go, atm he as has an PC350 and the closed design is just okay with the noise outside.
I did some research and found this:
AKG K 240 MK II (130€)

[size=12.222222328186035px]Can anyone give another Option or just say if these are good for a bit competetive Gaming? Thanks[/size]

Thought you might be interested Mad Lust, I just got a review loaner of the AT AG-1!
Absolutely gorgeous looking can. Will try to get a video up of this in the coming weeks, but first impressions as far as sound goes is that this thing sounds like how I remember the A900X sounds. Apparently the 3D wing mechanism on this version has been tightened up a little as well...
Hey guys. I said earlier I am looking to get new headphones and it has to be from newegg since I have a gift card there. I've narrowed it down to the astro a40s and mixamp for $180, CAL for $75, HD598s for $180 or the HD558s for $120. I'm trying to stay under $200 and a lot of the options recommended are way above that or not available on newegg. Which of these would give me the most fun, immersive gaming?
CAL > HD558 > HD598
This is interms of immersiveness. Obviously the HD598 trouces the other 2 when all you want is imaging.
The HD558 is the most balanced of the bunch however and for $120, it's a damn good buy IMO.
