Headphone upgrade from Sennheiser PC360's

[Martini1991]

Hi guys,

So I've been rocking some Sennheiser PC360's for the better part of a decade now.
The cable's starting to twist up something rotten, and occasionally I've got to mess with the sound on the right to get both cup's to work.

I mean, given how I use them, they're absolutely fine, as I don't headphone game much.
They're connected to a Sound Blaster X7 Limited Edition USB DAC/Sound card.

Can anyone suggest anything that'll be a decent upgrade over the PC360's?

Budget is £300 tops.

They're something I intend to keep a while.

the price from Thomann is ex VAT

Woops, did not notice that.

In that case, I believe the price would be £315*1.2 = £378.

At £78 over budget, I still feel these are a good option.

Have edited post above to reflect this information.

I should probably say I still need a microphone.
I quite like the simplicity of the PC360's as the microphone just slides up and sits at the back of my monitor.

I couldn't find anything that was a worthy replacement for them.
When my the headphone cable on my PC360 died last year, I bought another pair, took it apart to see how the cable worked and fixed up the first pair with a new cable. Parts cost about £6 and took about 2 hours to fix up with a soldering iron.

Really not much out there that can better, if you need an in-built mic for gaming?

Audeze Mobius? You can get them for £300. Comes with a Mic. And you don't need a sound card.
