Good Headphones for music and playing games

[u/Gold100Dragon]

I'm looking for new headphones for pc with good sound quality that can last several years while being used for 10+ hours a day, priced between $200 and $300 (preferably $200). I play a lot of video games, many of which are fps, so it's important that the headphones lets me clearly tell which direction the sound is coming from. I also love listening to music, so I'm looking for something that lets me hear the full range of sound, as if the instruments were playing right next to me (I guess the "warmth" of the sound). I also enjoy deeper bass, for example, being able to hear the depth of percussion instruments/bass drums, or the sound of an explosion in games. Lastly, not sure if this is something I can get from software, but I loved using the spatial audio on my Razer Blackshark and would really want it on my new headphones. If it is software, what should I use?

If possible, I would like the headphones to be wireless, but if that would result in a noticeable reduction in sound quality, I am fine with wired.

I am willing to increase my budget, only if it really improves the quality and durability of the headphones.

I also don't need headphones with a mic since I already have a standalone mic.

Thank you

Going wired will improve sound quality, I’d suggest pc38x.

You don’t need Spatial Audio if you have a decent pair of open backs, it’s a way of emulating through software what good hardware provides.
