Any suggestion for over the ear headphones under 600.

Main uses: PC gaming and occasional use with mobile. Will a iem be better for this purpose?'

I am using the SM ES18 and im very satisfied with it.

though people also suggest the cowon e1 due to its better build, i feel the ES18 wins it due to the better SQ. es18 is very good if you wanna use it indoors only, without any jumping around.

also, i bought for 550 from snapdeal. SD has always been smooth for me.

Over the ear is always better because of better isolation and thus less sound loss (leakage) than on ear units.

 

[shivakanth.sujit]

so are the ones that i posted ok to go??

 

[ithehappy]

Oh I can't comment on that mate, I was just meaning that whatever you get for gaming or movies make sure it's over the ear.

Please tell me the best IEM I can buy around Rs.800? Everywhere I have read that Xiaomi Piston 2 are the best in this range but I have doubts.
Sound quality is the main concern. It should just sound awesome.

Piston's sound quality is strictly OK, nothing spectacular or even good. It's a nightmare for bass lovers.

I'm not in a position right now to answer you as I'm a bit out of touch with latest trends in audio.
