Am looking for a new pair of headphones, mostly for gaming. The two aspects I care mostly about are comfort and good audio. Therefore wondering about people's recommendations and experiences with headphones. What's been your best headphones so far and why?

I tried a bunch of different gaming headsets over the years but as I got older and gave up on online games, I grabbed a pair of AudioTechnica ATH-M50 and have probably had them at least a decade now. They're closed ear studio monitor headphones so they sound great and are comfortable with long use. I've replaced both the cushions and the cable and they still work great.

I think the current variant is the ATH-M50x.
