What’s the best open back headphone for gaming?(under $200cad)

[crazy_bad]

I currently have the ath m40x and I wanna upgrade to something better for games
I mainly play FPS games competively, like Csgo and rainbow six siege
I also listen electronic music occasionally so some bass would be nice
I’m thinking of the ath ad500x and seinheiser hd 598 or 559
The cheaper the better!

The seinheiser ones you mentioned are pretty good, make sure to check if you need an amp for it. Some headphones require more power than what the plug of the usb can provide.

Do you know if the hd 599 is good? Cause 598 is a bit expensive for me

yes, the 599 is a good headphone as well. You'll need an amp for it still.
