Hello,this will be a long thread just to warn you. I also need audio experts or audiophiles to answer this if possible, and please mention if you are an expert. Ok so I'm going to get started. I am a heavy PC gamer. I play games for long hours (up to 6-7 hours). I mainly play CS:GO and FPS games. I want the headphone to be THE BEST, I want it to be almost perfect and best for the price. MY BUDGET IS €150 I am looking forward into an open back headphone because from what I heard it gives you a real surround sound, so I can hear if someone is behind me. So I'm looking into an open back headphone that will be able to hear footsteps/ surround sound. Another very important topic is comfort. I want the headphones to be very comfortable, so I can enjoy playing for long hours. Now the most important topic.... the sound. I want the sound to be audiophile, perfect. I know I'm probably asking for too much, but I really wan to get THE BEST possible headphones, I want to make sure that I don't go wrong. So as I mentioned before I want the headphones to give me that surround sound/ perspective so I can hear the game like it's real life. I myself am not a experienced audio guy, but I want the headphone to have a good bass ( is it possible that a open back headphone has a good bass). I want the bass so I can hear like a punch when there is a explosion or a shot. However I also want the treble, highs, mid's, lows etc. all to be very good. I don't really know what lows, highs and treble are but I want them to be good or clear (i don't know how audiophiles would describe very good lows,highs or treble) Before I summarize all that, I really want to get the best possible headphone under €150. I want it to be almost perfect (I know that I am very repetitive, I'm sorry about that).
Summary:
Headphone can/should be open back.
Headphone should have a surround sound. So I hear the sound around me.
Headphone should be very comfortable, so I can wear it for long hours.
Headphone should have the best sound/ very good.
Headphone should have good bass, highs, lows, treble.
Headphone should cost under €150.
Headphone should be THE BEST at its price range.
Headphone should be audiophile approved.
Now if possible give me couple of examples. Also give me a very detailed answer and tell me why you picked each one.
Edit: I have looked at Beyerdynamics DT 990 Pro 250 OHM (they are 138 on amazon.de), Audio Technica AD series ( ATH AD- 700x is 130, AD- 900x is 145 on amazon.de)
Update: I basically want the best possible open back headphone that is suitable both for gaming and music.
