Thankyou Mako, that post sums up better than words 90% of people who buy headphones for 'games'
Seriously, go any audio/visual outlet, pick up a nice pair of Senn's or any other respectable brand, stay away from flaxty GAYMING/VIRTUAL 5.1 headphones and you'll be fine.
Beats are overpriced pieces of flax by some no-mark rapper who wasn't that good in 1992.

For $300 dollars, closed back headphones I'd advise would be:
Beyerdynamic T50P- Smallish set which are great if you wear them out and about
AKG K550- Rather big, though light enough to be comfortable.
V-Moda M-80- Sound great though the styling might not be for everyone.
if you really want sound isolation, you'll want a proper set of iems/earphones:
Grado GR8/10- Amazing earphones by a little US company. Saving up for the GR10s at the moment.
Shure SE 535- One of the staples of high end earbuds. The cables are replaceable too so they're easy to fix .
Sennheiser iE80- If you like bass then these are the earphones for you. You can even tweak the bass levels by screwing/unscrewing a doodah on them.
Edit: If you're a proper ModRetroer, have a read through this thread and knock up some custom moulded iems http://www.head-fi.org/t/430688/home-made-iems

If you want to get into headphone modding, you need a set of Fostex T50RP's. http://www.head-fi.org/a/fostex-t50rp-m ... links-wiki

None of ya'll Jolly African Americans know flax.
LM386 with a 8Ohm radioshack speaker is where it's at.
You can't beat the sweet sound of success.

I would call myself an amateur producer. I have worked with both freelance, hobbyist, and professional producers (one of which is an emmy winning, Kelly Clarkson producing Italian guy). I have 4 years of live audio experience and 1 year of studio experience. I have co-produced 2 albums.
Beats are flax. All models.
I use Sennheiser HD280's. They have excellent frequency response and are dirt cheap for what you get out of them. They don't have noise cancellation as they're aimed at recording, but when I use them for leisurely listening, I honestly can't hear flax. I've listened on a train. I've listened on a plane. Haven't tried your house yet, though. On a mouse is next.
Have a good day.

Yeah, but flat frequency response is mostly useful with audio production. While some people would prefer flat frequency response, a lot of people like coloured sound more than not, with more emphasis (for example)on highs or bass and making the types of music they listen to shine.ToastBucket said:

Well with headphones that large, to be using them with common iPods and mp3 players and the like, you should be using them in conjuncture with a post amp. Most of which have EQ's in them.
