HD800s get my pick for anything where tight 360 awareness needs to come in (often FPS), or spatial clarity is a particular bonus (some racing?)

Otherwise, still enjoy my old beaten up 650's for general gaming. Comfy, lightweight, take a beating, and logical to have a short thin cable to plug into the controller

Long time gamer here , into competitive FPS gaming , CS GO , Pugb , Dota 2 and many others , I have been using Hidizs MP145 and Hifiman Sundara EQ by Amir , paired with Cayin RU7 in Line out mode , with 3.5 mm cable to 2 RCA into a Topping L30II desktop amp, depth and soundstage it's so immersive ... I am not using any surround software and I can understand footsteps and gunshots in a 360 degree easily , and my teammates always asking how do I do this . Hidizs MP145 First Edition with rose gold nozzle , if anyone reading this want to get Hidizs MP145 I suggest using the silver nozzle since Hidizs done a stealth revision on the model . But with silver nozzle it will sound exactly like the early MP145 model . Impressions done by my brother's stealth revision MP145 . I am also using my with Dunu SS medium tips . As for Sundara Hfiman it is the most comfortable headphone for gaming wide soundstage and holographic imaging with a lot of power and the EQ by Amir it just became my best companion in gaming . Stay away from gaming earphones and headsets personal advice .
