    Looking for over ear closed back headphones to use while playing games for $120 USD or less

    Hello, The headset I used to use for playing games on my computer, the Logitech G35, recently broke. Due to that, I am searching for a replacement. Through the research I have done, I found that I would be better off purchasing headphones and an attachable microphone rather than a gaming...

    McIntosh MHP 1000 headphones

    I just have to throw my 2 cents on these headphones as there seems a lack of reviews and chatter. Most audiophiles are shunning these cans while pouring accolades on everything made by Audeze, Hifiman, Mrspeakers, Focal, STAX, and Sennheiser. I'm tired of statements like: "McIntosh can only...

    Closed back with good comfort?

    I just got some Sennheiser HD598CS (closed backs) and I love them sound wise, and how much they isolate my room noise. They are however extremely uncomfortable because of the way the weight is only on the very top of your skull. After an hour or so it ends up just being painful on the one spot...

    Best Closed Back Audiophile Headphone?

    Hey guys, I'm an audiophile and currently own Sennheiser HD650 and I quite like them except for two things - I prefer a more bass heavy headphone and while the sound is amazing I want more bass and two (this is the big one) they're open back headphones, now I'm a student so studying in the...

    "Best" closed back headphones for OTG/office use under $500?

    Looking to spend 500 or less on a good set of headphones that I can walk outside with and use in my office. I like a wide, warm soundstage, lower mids pronounced and the highs not to sharp. Hoping the price would include dap + headphones and I could buy new or used!

However, I need something to compliment my 560s when im traveling/ on-the-go. What are some "fun" or dynamic headphones that stray from a neutral...
