As the subject line suggests I'm currently looking for a new pair of headphones to fit my situation. Currently I'm using a Astro A40 5.8 wireless setup which comes with the headset and a mixamp that outputs 70mW 32omhs per channel which I'm not quite sure what this means. I currently use my headphones only on my PC and this would be the case here although if possible I'd like to be able to use them on my tablet but its not a must. I use a soundcard currently on the pc a ASUS Xonar DX but I'm considering getting a ASUS Xonar Essence STX so that I can power higher quality headphones.
What I would like to have with a headphone
1.) Minimal Noise leaking (not entirely closed off to open headphones but I don't want too much sound leaking my personal time is my personal time and no one else needs to hear that.)
2.) Larger Cans: I prefer cans in the 40mm to 50mm range mainly because the cover my ears quite nicely.
3.) Base: Base isn't a huge concern of mine but I don't want something terribly flat I would like something that has maybe some base but not a huge amount. I don't associate quality headphones with base.
