If you are gonna be in your own workspace or you need to have one it’s imperative not to damage your ears and be able to be the audiophile you were meant to. There is a loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong list of headsets you could be interested in, some required an AMP and DAC, others work well with only a sound card and some cans can even run solo. Also, some are better for listening to bass, others get you good highs and some are really well made and balanced, something you may not want! I’ll present you three different options.
The Sennheiser HD598 doesn’t require an AMP/DAC combo as it only has 60U impedance and is very balanced, it’s said to be the best low-mid range pair of cans you can get.
The Beyerdynamic DT 990 600OHM are some of the best cans you can get for only 250 dollars. Truly worth the money, you really can’t tell there’s much of a difference between this and some high-end gear. You do need to keep in mind this do need an AMP/DAC.
These two babies are however only really usable indoors if you are someone who moves a lot I recommend a wireless pair. These cans are pretty good.

And with this, I finish my short series of what every PC guy must have. Hope you enjoyed it!
