For this new year I was planning to upgrade my "audio system" which consists of sound card and headphones and both are currently of less than dirt quality. Because I spend most of my life in front of my PC and majority of this time is accompnied by music I thought I shouldnt grudge too much and make a long term investment .
So I decided to take as a a sound card audigy 2 - it was an easy choice (by most reviews). But as to headphones ..... after spending some time lurking on this forum ,reading reviews ,comparing prices etc I start feeling that I am lost in different possibilties without hope and can't choice myself .I beg this respected communyt to help me though I understand that you are tired of same questions every day
So I need headphones to listen music which consists mostly of all kinds of metal(which is rather diverse style representing practically all range of musical instruments, music temps , vocal parties etc. ) and to play some games ( a CS and some flight simulators) . So I want them not only sound good but also have a good positional sound. They also should be comfortable for wearing up to 12 hours and have rather long cord , also I think that closed ones are better for overall feeling and sound positioning( my current headphones are closed and I like the fell very much -sadly its only thing I like about em)
Koss Portapro - According to those boards best price/sound ever ,but I dont like they short cord and open style . And I dont know how good they are for gaming..
Sony MDR V6 - According to those boards again they have not very good positional sounds ,though everything else looks pretyy atractive to me .
What about Audio technica ATHM40FS ,ATH 910 ,ATH M30?
Maybe any models form Beyerdynamic ,Sehnheiser which can suit my needs??
If portapro were closed and had long cord I would go with them without doubt ,but If I am ready to spent a bit more maybe there is something which can suit better?
