Hello,
I'm after a pair of open back headphones which will be used for both music and gaming on a very highend PC.
I have to stress I'm not an online competitive gamer. I do not need a mic. I game for fun and the experience.
Gaming fidelity is priority for me.
To help give an idea of where I stand with quality preference, my current set up contains;
77" LGC9
KEF R 500 5.1 Surround with R50 Atmos speakers.
Denon AVR X-7200wa
RTX2080TI Graphics Card.
I currently use a closed back Oppo PM-3 with a Chord Mojo amp.
So any input on helping me decide on a pair of open back headphones would be great.
Budget is around £1300
Headphones must have a good soundstage for atmosphere and imaging for location of enemies etc.
I like a powerful inpact sound for guns.
Massive sub bass is not a priority as long as its clear and defined.
I do like trebles to be detailed for glass breaking and ammunition shells hitting the ground. But I am sensitive to over bright trebles where sibilance is overbearing.
I've trawled the internet for headphones I'd like for music but can't find any where they have been used for gaming.
On my radar currently are;
Focal Clear
HD800S
T1 Gen 2
I would like to continue to use my Chord Mojo for the next 2 years so ideally suited to this dac/amp.
Thank you in advance
