First of all, hello , i'm new to the world of audio.
I found this forum looking for a new pair of headphones, now that my old Siberia v2 gaming headset broke down. keep in mind, I am not an audiophile, never experienced true audio quality in headphones yet. I'm now looking for some kind of higher end headphones with good music listening quality. To now i've been really interested in the Audio-Technica ATH-M50 S with its price and amazing reviews (and because it's rated as the #2 best valued over-ear headphones), but seeing how people lightly complain about the bass, it worries me a bit, as I often listen to bass based music (old hip-hop, rap, dubstep etc.). So keeping those preferences in mind, are there anything better within a reasonable (+$40-$50) pice range. Directional audio would also be a plus as I play quite a lot of FPS games (TF2, BF3, BC2).
TL;DR: any better headphones than ATH-M50 S within its price range, especially with the bass.
