Hello,
I am currently hunting for a set of full size cans that I will mainly use during my gaming sessions.
I don't need an inline mic because most of my gaming is solo. I wear glasses so I want something that is going to fit comfortably without pushing the top of my ear against my glasses( which is painful and very aggravating).
I would prefer a single entry cord but it's not a must, cord length is not a huge concern as I'm right at the computer playing.
The main factor is sound of course, I need a something that is going to portray a lot of the subtle details (footsteps, leaves rustling, glass breaking) without giving up being convincing during gunshots, and explosions. The vocal range needs to be good, I'm not looking for perfection but don't want to hear the hissing or drawn out "sss" sounds either.
The ability to portray a sound stage in front, to the sides and behind is vital as well, I don't want a surround headphone as the drivers are tiny and perform as such.
I have been using a pair of Skullcandy Ink'd ear buds with great satisfaction in the sound/noise isolation department but the comfort is lacking and makes me irritable after about 30 minutes.
Anyone who plays computer games at a high level like I do understand the needs to a superb sound solution and my 7.1 surround sound isn't an option once the sun goes down.
Thanks for reading,
