Hi all, new to the forums.
Been looking around for some gaming headphones. my Budget is $150 but I've already found two that seem to fit my needs.
The DTX800 and the ATH-AD400
I simply need a comparison of the two and peoples opinions. Also, I use onboard sound; actually sounds pretty decent, to me anyway. Realtek HD Audio Codec Drivers. So which one would be better sounding to that. Might look into buying a sound card but thats after the head phones
Also, would be helpful to state which one has better isolation; I know they're both open but one might have less leakage than the other etc.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT : Also learnt that the DTX800 has better sound quality while the AD400 is more comfortable. SO HARD TO DECIDE!! ARGGHH
