Hifiman Arya. It's my daily driver for a while now. Love the sound

I´m using Hifiman arya as well. Fits my needs quite well.

Just purchased a Z1R for everyday usage and gaming. First impressions are not that great. Thick, congested and some frequencies are boosted enough to drown out quiet footsteps for directional queues.

Going to give it another week. I’ll do a bit of tweaking and adjusting before I make my final decision.

Looks like I might still be on the hunt for a TOTL closed back headphone that’s excels in competitive gaming.

Currently using my TH900 mk2 with a SB X7 for gaming, it's really great, but I admit I'm searching for an used Audeze LCD-GX, mainly because of the mic, and I'm sure it'll work well with the X7, and I want to dedicate my TH900 with my music gear

I'm using a Yeti X Pro USB for my gaming, I use the 1990's for both music and gaming. I sit it just behind and the side of my monitor, and it still works great.

Steelseries Arctis Pro with the dac. I much prefer this to the massdrop 650.
very good as a headphone, good mic. solid bass and clear treble, great balance and comfortable. aftermarket pads are available; presently have angled on.

four downsides; 1, mute/enable button for the mic...it's right wear you will reach while putting the headphone on/off.....and 2, the disco flashing/pulsing lights.. which can be turned off. 3, often switches profiles from headset to speaker without prompting. very easy to change that profile back. 4, proprietary connector for the headphones from the dac. the line out in the back of the dac can be used with other audio equipment ie; amp

otherwise very musical and reasonably priced and often updated firmware / software
i'm a little surprised it doesn't get mentioned on headfi as a find.
the downsides are very minor

I use these as well with my t1 2nd gens. dt 1990s are some great fps headphones.

I am using a HD660s and soon expect to try out a DCA Closed X, I think the HD660s are amazing for shooters, although I don't enjoy shooters as much!

I've been using the Arctis Pro Wireless for years and I love it. That was right up until I began to experience issues with the speaker for one ear while out of warranty (2-year warranty). Steelseries doesn't offer any post-warranty repair service and so I have a wonderful $330 paperweight. I don't want to be in this situation again so I'm comparing a few different midrange headphones which will have higher sound quality anyway. Steelseries makes great products so I'm sad to move away from them, but I want something I can continue to use for a long time.

Hifiman Sundaras.

Sennheiser HD800S easy. For atmospheric games there's no competition.

 

[SimJam]

Sony XM3's, been looking at purchasing either Audio Technica ATH-R70x or Sennheiser HD800s.

 

[Amish]

My main can for PC duties these days is the Senns 660s.

 

[Zeno26]

Love to use either my HD8xx or my Blessing 2 Dusks when I need to keep the noise of my A/C out
