What headphones are people planning to use with their Vive?
I've been looking at the Sennheiser HD 558 and Audio-Technica ATH-M50x so far but cannot make my mind up.
On the surface, the HD 558 seem like an ideal choice for VR given they are open design and supposedly very comfortable. Also, the open design is better for positional audio and sound stage, which is reportedly an important ingredient in adding to presence in VR.
On the other hand, I also listen to electronic music and have heard that the bass is not amazing on the HD 558. This got me looking at the ATH-M50x, however these are closed design and would therefore limit immersion.
Maybe I'm over analysing this? Both are roughly the same price (£120 ish) and I don't want to spend more than this really.
