Phillips SHP9500S for $50 shipped at newegg.
https://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod...dphonesAccessories-_-26138190-S0H&ignorebbr=1
They just use a standard 1/8” jack and so you can get an accessory headphone mic from anywhere for like $15 if you want a great gaming headset. (something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Headphone-Co...rd_wg=U8E3x&psc=1&refRID=9Q3QTJ2B7FM1XFFX85YX
These open air headphones are super comfortable, super good sound, super cheap. I have my pair at the office for music listing at work without risking my pair of $200 Sennheisers to the office goblins. (very similar sound quality to the HD595 Sennheisers I own).
Z Reviews (headphone review youtube king) was clamoring about them, saying they were better than his Sennheiser HD600.
WARNING: Bad words in this review (and RIGHT in the first 5 seconds), so NSFW, but this review is what convinced me to buy the Phillips.
(I don’t agree with Z Man on the sweat magnet thing – that hasn’t happened to me over the time I’ve used them - maybe that depends on how much your head sweats?)
For $50 bucks though – if you don’t have these already – just buy a set. I think you'll thank me later.
