I own the HE1000se and all I do is game on it. I had the Sennheiser HD 490 Pro and the HD 800 S as well. Those were great for gaming and especially the 800 S for competitive play. But the HE1000se, once I picked those up, I knew I’d never pick up my Sennheisers again. They are amazing! Basically the

It’s not nearly as black and white as that, though. The Consumer division still includes legendary lines like the HD 500, 600, and even 800 series, which continue to set standards in their respective categories.

If you want to go around $150 to $200 range AND still have the bam 500 mic compatible then look at the 560s (more comfortable and gaming focused) and 599( more music focused). I personally have the 599 with the bam mic attachment. 400 range. If gaming and comfort are you top priority then hands down

My expectations and preferences shifted over many, many years. From crappy on-ear headphones used for listening to cassettes and CDs on the go as a kid, over free included earbuds in a phone box, bluetooth headphones, all the way to studio reference open-back headphones. For a long time I was always
