Complete newbie looking for some headphone advice , 150-200€
Hey there,
recently my gaming headset (hyperx cloud alpha) of 4/5 years suddenly went super quiet so I decided to look into buying some new headphones. Issue is I have absolutely 0 idea when it comes to headphones.
Budget : 150-200€ , could be a little bit higher IF the difference is marginable since I do want these headphones to last me a long time
Location : Germany
Use : Mostly for regular activities such as gaming, listening to music and playing the piano
Genres of music I listen to : I kinda listen to literally anything, so probably more well rounded headphones would be nice. If I had to list some genres it'd be Frenchcore, Hardstyle, Hardtekk, J-rock/J-metal, Nightcore, Classical
Open Back or Closed Back : I heard open backs have a nicer sound, but will probably leak a decent bit, and I live with my parents + sister so I assume Closed Back would probably the best choice for me?
My finds so far : I've been looking and so far I came across the beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO or the X version or the 700 Pro /x which seem decent? Most Sennheiser headphones I found that were closed back were either below or above budget
Note : The headphones do not need to have a mic, since I was thinking of maybe buying some cheap 50€ microphone instead. Also I have no amp or anything, I'll be using the headphones without any extras
