Hey guys I've recently been looking into upgrading from a Logitech g35 headset to some higher quality headphones. Unfortunately I have been having trouble deciding on which would be best for me.
I will be using the headphones for some music and gaming both competitively and noncompetitively. I'm looking for headphones that are fun and immersive, but can also be useful for positioning and direction in competitive games. Obviously comfort is also a huge factor.
The three main headphones I've been looking into are:
DT990 pro 250ohm
I'm leaning toward these because they are on sale for $130, they also seem to be very comfortable and can offer an immersive experience. Right now I will only be using my motherboard's onboard audio which I know isn't ideal for these headphones but I plan to upgrade in the near future. I am also concerned a about how well they will fair in competitive games as I have seen mixed opinions on their positioning.
AD900x
Overall these seem like great headphones especially for competitive gaming, but I am worried about how well they will work for immersion in games and for certain music as I have heard the bass is quite weak. The headphones also look like they are uncomfortable and could fall or slouch easily.
HD598
These share many of the same thoughts I have about the AD900X. They seem great for competitive gaming but the lack of bass is a negative. There also seems to be mixed feelings on comfort. Also the fact that they have been on sale for <$100 recently and are now sitting around $150 puts me off them.
I really don't know a whole lot about audio so any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
