I use the Beyerdynamic DT 1990 Pro and absolutely love them, though they are out of your budget. I head good things about the DT 990 Pro getting decently close for about half the price. They are very neutral and great for mixing if you need it eventually, but it might make them appear a bit sibilant at first, but I got used to it. For a more fun set I use the Sennheiser HD 599 SE, which are really light and airy - especially compared to the Beyerdynamics - making them more comfy for extended sessions. At least here in europe they are really affordable at the equivalent of about 160 CAD and punch way above their weight in my experience. Last alternative if you want to give IEMs a try, I am playing with the AFUL Performer 5s sometimes and find them pretty comfy and great sounding too.
Ziigaat Odyssey if you want something neutral with bass boost (the bass really kick in ngl I love that), Performace 5 if you want warm tuning, Kbear Tri I3 Mark 3 if you want something bright but not harsh smooth and great for vocal.
Maybe consider used a bit more detailed iems if you'd like, eg. AFUL P5? If seller does include purchase documentation with date, and you have the ability to return them if flawed, it should work. Did for me
Aful p5 (the old orange one) for work, cause these are very comfortable and sounds fantastic. Kiwi ears orchestra at home for gaming cause it's distancing and positional quality is just insane.

Budget gaming pick, but poor cables and polarizing bass.
