My HD800 with super DuPont mod. Those, paired with my Kadhas Tone2 Pro DAC and THX AAA 789 amp are my personal end game for my PC. I'll use those until they rot off my head, and then fix them, or get another pair.
Similar collection, I have a dt880 600ohm, focal Stellia, hd800 non s. No good planar at the moment just an old Audeze sine.
Hd800 is my favorite but a lot of things to turn on to make it sound good so I don't reach for it lol.
The biggest audio jump was from cd player ear buds, not bad ones Sony $200 dollar cd Walkman and minidisc, to the porta pro. Then from porta pro to audio technica, then add in a xonar stx pci express sound card. Now I have hd800, focal Stellia, sold zmf eikon, mad dog, lcd 2 foam version, lcd 3, lcd xc, Sony ma900, z7. Etc. Nothing was as big a jump as porta pro. I want to get one to try back to level 1 but it's too expensive lol.
Audiophile options like Sennheiser, Bose and Sony are your best bet. There's no real ""best option"", you can look at different reviews and see what works. like hell, ive tried so many headphones and earbuds, Sony, steelseries, sennheiser.
At one point i just switched to other cheaper options and im pretty happy with them. for example will recommend [cleer enduro](https://d3oc4tmn8qmbnq.cloudfront.net/?q=GMKAO1466), great for their price.
Beyer is also super solid, senn hd800 s etc. alotttt of options, list could keep going on
I've had 2 gaming headsets, first it was a Steelseries Siberia, then a Razer Kraken, but then I got to know someone at work who is into sound. He convinced me to buy a HD 650 and by god it was a different tier. It was so comfortable, but 5-6 years ago I've changed it to a HD 800, purely because the same friend sold it to me £500, pretty much half price and he took good care of them too.
