I know there is an official headphone thread, but I'll likely get a better response in a separate thread, so please don't meddle with it. Pretty please, Bwave <3

So I'm looking for decent headphones for around 1k. They must have balanced sound. I've tried some audionic and a4tech models and they all give an overproduced, overly-bassy sound. While these headphones are great for rap, electronic, dubstep music, they don't suit rock music.

So please suggest me some good cheap headphones that can preserve the raw crunchy harshness of distorted guitars and not muffle it out with excessive bass. Must be loud as well.

Thank you!

i need some good headphones too new/used within 2k, I plan to use them for gaming as well as listening to music. They should also have a builtin mic with good quality. Sorry for hijacking your thread Ben >_<

I don't want a gaming headset. I want it for music. It must produce a clear sound, not muffled by excessive bass.

Hijacking this thread for my own needs. I have a budget of 5-6k. Best headphones with clear as fuck sound? Like Benighted said, no bassy crap.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.

    did you try setting up Google Payments? For UBL you may have to get it enabled for internet transactions, Naya should work without it!
