Headphones for Music/Gaming under 200

[Gatis_]

Hi. So, I am listening to EDM/Dubstep. I am playing mostly FPS games and single player games. I would like preferably headphones witohut mic, bc I have a soundcard (creative blaster x-fi) and there is a mic jack. I would prefer buying mic seperetly. I am looking at Logitech g633 for the extra bass and Gaming experience, but everyone says that cloud 2 are better, but I think that the g633 would suit me better. S/ for bad english. What do you recommend?

I'm going to copy/paste something I said in another thread:

"For the price, you could maybe try the HD579 from Sennheiser: https://en-us.sennheiser.com/audio-headphones-around-ea.... If you want to save money you could try a cheaper model, such as the HD569: https://en-us.sennheiser.com/around-ear-headphones-ster..., but it won't have the same details.

For closed headphones, maybe the HD 380 Pro would be worth a look: https://en-us.sennheiser.com/monitoring-headphone-studi....

But all these recommendations are relevant if you're not averse to using EQ to get the sound more the way you want it: https://sourceforge.net/projects/equalizerapo/. Otherwise, you might find them boring by default.
I would recommend adjusting the preamp down equal to the amount of the highest boost you do. And I recommend you not to boost between 80hz and 200hz unless you like rumbling, and not deep, bass.

So, if you want more powerful bass, you can try, say, boosting 40-70hz by 4-5db (and reduce the preamp by this)."

I don't generally recommend "gaming" headphones, not for music at least.

If the "surround" of the headphones you mentioned work somewhat in the games you play for positioning, then I could see an argument for them. Otherwise, all "surround" headphones have worse stereo than proper stereo headphones. Cheers.
