lots of people like the simgot em6l, my first were the supermix 4 and they were great - but i’d actually recommend the 7hz crinacle divine- kind of the number 1 in your price range. if you wanted something amazing but a lil higher than your budget i just upgraded to the ziigaat arête 2 and ive never been so impressed, or a safer bet for an all rounder would be the softears volume S
(ultra cheap option if you fancy it, simgot ew300)
honestly the main reason i recommend the volume S is just how good of a deal it is, equally high tier good for both but you’re the same as me - gaming focused with music secondary and the arête 2 are perfect they have a bass switch which makes them extra fun, like i feel headphone rumble in my head with the bass switch on, people i’ve seen call them the monarch lites (the monarch mark 4s are my endgame when i have £800 to throw away) also yeah the arête are super good for music too

If u wanna strictly control it to under $200, Daybreak is prolly the best all rounder although it leans more to neutral than warm n bassy. Best warm bassy options close to ur bracket that I have experiences with are Ziigaat Crescent and Softear Volume S, but both are a little over that budget. Those 3 don't have the best cable in the world either if that bothers u.
I tried the OG Volume & S side by side, and picked the 'S' instantly for its bass presentation. With UC tips on, the overall sound presentation is top-notch!
