I’ve been using Audio-Technica ATH-m30x cans as they’re fairly affordable and have a replaceable cord, but you’ll find people who swear by Sennheiser or Beyerdynamic at various price points. If you’re expecting lots of bass, you won’t get it with monitor headphones, but you will get great speech clarity and solid gaming sound.
I was about to buy some Beyerdynamic headphones when my work sent me a $350 Jabra headset. That was good enough all around that I’ve just been using that ever since but now they’re breaking, with a short in the right can and mic (sometimes I have to jiggle it to get it to work), so I’m looking into the original setup I was considering again.
Wow! That’s possibly the longest run-on sentence I’ve ever written. I’m leaving it.
Edit: thanks for the recommendation! I’ll look into the set you have.
