so... dang it.. when I bought my HARX500s on a whim @ fry's i should have probably held up and thought it thru more.
so... now I'm kinda itchy with better headphones.
I've been banging my head on desk for days... closed design will probably be better cause sometimes the mrs. is in the same room while I'm gaming or using the computer in general... NEED A MAN CAVE..but that will have to come later sadly not an option right now ** sharing a house so my pc is out in living room ...which kinda sucks but just need to work with it right now.)
anyways.. I will mostly use the headphones for gaming, I have SMSL SA-S3 t-amp and Polk T15 speakers which i generally use for music. I will use the headphones for music some not sure how often but I'd like some that are good for that also probably.
considering a number of options
Sony MDR-7506 $100~ish on amazon (can't remember exactly around $100 however) I don't know if these are good for my purposes?
i really loved the looks of the Audio Technica ATH-AD700s ($105 on amazon) then I realized they are a rather horrid purple? and more importantly the open design may be highly problematical give my pc is in the living room if the mrs is watching tv while I game.
So also looks at the ATH-A700 (a900s are probably too expensive) $120 @ amazon
and then I don't even know how many other things looked at on amazon and guitar centers site... sooo.. now that I have given myself a massive headache
I will ask you.. where should my $150 MAX...seriously if they are closer to $100 that would be better but if they are over the $150 i just won't do it right now.
(many things going on in our lives right now..bought new car just got married ...trying to save up for house..so yeah i would like nicer heaphones but i have to draw the line and i draw it at $150 but I'd rather spend less if possible.
edit... oh yeah my sound card is a XonarDG btw if that helps your recommendation processes at all..thanx..
