I am looking to buy headhpones that are audiophile grade to be used for gaming mostly and a bit of music/movies etc...
What I am looking for is something neutral sounding with wide soundstage and excellent details and stereo imaging as that is what matters most for FPS games.
Will be using my Chord Mojo DAC/AMP to power them.
Was looking at the Beyerdynamic DT1990 pro since they are open back and from what I've read in reviews are very much what I am looking for in terms of sonic characteristics.
The T1 gen 2 are also great but being only semi open they might not be as good for gaming.
I will most probably not be able to audition any headphones before i buy one so i will rely on your experience for this mostly.
Not really interested in gaming headsets as they are usually bad for other things and look cheesy and feel like plastic.
Budget is not set in stone but I would prefer to stay under the 1000$ mark unless there is something way better for be had for around 1600$ (HD800s for example?)
