Surround sound in headphones is a gimmick.
Listen to yupitsme and get those headphones.
Or find another good pair but if it states 5.1/7.1 I can assure you they're not that great.

true 5.1 would mean jamming many drivers into each ear cup

you should learn what virtual surround software is along with binaural is

you say you want sound quality i listed the pretty much go to for closed headphones in that area
you can get xpt100s for 80 or cals for about the same too
could say hyper x headset too cuz they are still better then m50s

I have owned over 50 headphones and I really dont like closed besides the ones I listed

250 if you plan on getting a decent amp/dac setup.

80 if you just plan on using it plugged straight into your pc.

As you want closed DT770 with ModMic is best in budget. And like said, dont be fooled by virtual 5.1 and what not.

virtual surround is fucking garbage, and so is physical surround (7 speakers near your ears, all small and low quality, shitty sound)

either do stereo headphones with a mic or don't bother. quality stereo headphones will outperform physical surround and virtual surround headsets in sound repro every single time.

Virtual is a personal preference, i cant stand it.. but a lot of people swear by it.


Physical surround in headphones is a gimmick, as previously stated.

Also, been a long time since this was used... so imma post it lol
