Price range is about $200 CAD Let me get a few points out of the way before you start suggesting. Headphones, not a headset! No "Gamer" aesthetic/design or branding. NOT wireless, should use a 1/8th audio jack, but I'm fine with a 1/4th too. No "7.1 surround" through multiple headphone drivers, software wise is fine though. 'Over the ear' design preferably. I'm not using them to play games all the time, but listen to music rather. I prefer materials that don't fall apart in a year or so of use (synthetic leather...) as that's what I'm going through right now, but that's a bit much to ask in this price range. Suggest away!
You can try to get your hands on Sony MDR XB-500's, but I don't know if you'll find any in perfect condition. I don't know of anything I'd rather get in that price range though.
I meant to type $200, whoops. I also found a 6.3mm to 3.5mm audio jack converter over lunch, so that's no longer a problem. Anyways, I'm working with a few friends right now to find something. I'll still look at this thread, though.
