Gaming cans

[Teknikallysekure]

Is looking for a good set of cans for under 100$ for gaming a fruitless adventure? It seems most of the entry levels that everyone generally suggests Audio Technicas, Beyers, and Sennheisers all breach the 100 dollar pricepoint.

Isn't there a semi directional sound decent listening can for below 100$?

Thanks in advance.

audio technica A500s are just under the $100 point with shipping

Not really unless you buy used. I really like these even though they are a bit more than $100 new.

Hrm, I hadn't noticed those I'll have to check them out.

Do these offer any level of directional hearing? If you know? Thx.-

That is a pretty good price, I might have to do some saving I guess. Just a pita to save more, when you're buying lots of components...

hrm, do I want to save more for new cans or to buy a couple new games..

those open 700s are pretty nice headphones. really cushy and huge. a good deal.

the ATH A500's are probably the best sub $100 gaming cans period. Senn HD555's are close in price

HD555's can be had used on eBay for <$70. Great gaming cans.

You can get HD555s right now for $105 on Newegg but its probably a temporary price
