Please recommend me some good headhones in the ~100€ or little bit over range for gaming and music listening. I'm not a audiophile but I don't like my
cordless sennheisers too much so it must be corded model. I'm not looking for the best hifi experience ever so forget that but not the most cheap and crappy either.

Get a good Altec Lansing headset. $40-50 USD. You cant go wrong there. They are not the BEST. But are definately good ones. You can even get some for $25 that are very decent.

I think you should look into the Sennheiser HD555. Its amazingly superb in games, and does well in music, and ontop of everything, it fits your budget. You can't go wrong.

The Sennheiser HD 555 comes in 2 versions: 50 and 120 ohm. The 50 ohm can be run without an amp, but the other one....not so much if you want good sound. Be careful!

Who cares what they look like no one else is watching to play your game with those on. and they dont look that bad in person. like i said before the feel great and sound awsome
