Hey guys!

I want to use with my Creative Sound Blasterx g6 Dac+Amp.
My preferred music genre: Kpop,rock,electronic
Price: Around 150$
I like open or closed headphones too.
I prefer Circumaural headphones .

On other forum they suggest:
Beyerdynamic DT 770 pro
Beyerdynamic DT 990 pro
Audio-Technica ATH-A550Z

But I would also like to hear your suggestions.

I'm intending to use for listening to music (about 70%) and gaming (about 30%).


Thanks for your help!

With VAT this isn't 150$(220$ in my country) unfortunately. Any other option?

I'm hearing very good things about the PC38X from Sennheiser which comes in at 169$ at Drop right now, just over your budget.

I use the DT770 a lot for both gaming and sounddesign. It has very good detail but for some the treble can be a little intense. If you really want a closed back then the ATH-M40X are very decent for the price and provide pretty good isolation, more so than the DT770. I would really recommend giving these a listen before buying to hear if they fit you.

When gaming I often find that I plug in my Koss Porta Pro instead since I don't want to isolate myself fully (it feels odd to me talking in discord and hardly hearing my own voice), hearing if someone knocks on my door etc. It also sits very light on my head and the sound quality is nothing short of amazing for the 15€ or whatever they sell for nowadays.
