Just a regular Sennheiser HD 569. I don't like gaming headphones.

Sony WH-1000XM4
First couple days I actually got dizzy from the noise canceling, now I can't live without it.
I can't stand wired headphones anymore. They always seem to break somewhere along the cable or connection to the cable, no matter how careful you handle them. I can now also easily listen to music or whatever while doing stuff in the kitchen.

Audio Technica m50x with Bluetooth. I bought them for tracking when recording guitar or just jamming music. They have a flat response so it doesn't add lows or highs or scoop mids. The Bluetooth option works great with pop os. Never worked on win10 for some reason.

I don't like headphones designed for the gaming market. I use a Sennheiser HD 599 which is a few years old now. Sounds excellent both for music and other activities. Open backs are great for when wearing headphones for long periods; my ears don't get sweaty nor fatigued even when wearing good open-backs for hours on end.

Well, I don’t really like headphones, so mostly I’m using my living room stereo like it’s 1987 and I just got my first Amiga.

I do have a pair of beyerdynamic DT 990 Pros (3.5 mm TRS) because they’re supposed to sound “neutral” and their main purpose is to aid in audio …“work”… and voice chat. But they’re just fine for gaming, I guess, and have been trouble-free and fairly pleasant to wear (as big headphones go).

I'm using the Moondrop Aria Snow. Not to expensive, and they sound pretty good if you ask me.

I use Audio Technica ATH-m50x through a Topping DAC. Honestly really like the Koss Studio headphones as well and that's what I'm looking to pick up. Obviously not better than DT880 or some Sennheiser, but I like to buy cheaper headphones.

Sennheiser HD 650 and I love them

Gaming headphones are pretty bad, generally. I use Beyerdynamic DT-880s.

I'm using beyerdynamic dt700prox and they're pretty good (with glasses on too)

Sennheiser gaming headset. Classic 3.5mm. The only hassle I have to deal with is the cable.

I have a pair of Senheiser HD6xx from Drop.com. It's basically a pair of HD600s with slightly cheaper plastic and bare bones packaging. They have the exact same drivers as the 600s. These cans have been famous for decades with good reason, as they give the perfect balance of low, mid, and high end.

They're a bit pricey at around $230, and you'll also need a great amplifier to power it. You can always go with a decent $99 desktop amp or you can shell out $300 on a high quality DAC+AMP. I have the Audient ID14, and everything sounds FANTASTIC. I can turn up the music super loud and still have head room.

TLDR; Drop.com Senheiser HD6xx with an Audient i14 to power them. Overkill for casual listening, perfect value for audiophiles.

Currently: HyperX Cloud Alpha

Before: HyperX Cloud

I use wired headphones when I need to use headphones.

Sony MDR-7506: I use them because they're affordable, repairable, high quality sound professional studio-grade headphones.

That said, most of the time I stream to my TV using a mini PC and Moonlight/Sunshine, so I just use my speaker system

I'm using the Massdrop HD6XXs. They sound phenomenal, IMO.

I'm going to be honest: I use the Apple Earbuds. They tiny, cheap, and sound great!

Sennheiser HD598SE

Sennheiser HD 599 Have had em for a couple years, they were my first proper open back headphones and I've fallen in love with them

Used to have an Audio Technica ATH-M40x which were amazing, great sound quality for the price, but their plastic kinda broke in both ears eventually and i had them taped together for a while, swapped over to some Phillips SHP9500 which tbh never sounded as good at the audio technica even though they cost about the same

I use the Logitech G Pro X. It comes with a USB audio dongle and 3.5 jack as well, so it can be used without the USB dongle. Works out of the box on Linux and I can control the side tone with headsetcontrol.

If you're ok with, at some point in their life, redoing the internal cables to fix them, the MH752 are the most comfortable thing I ever had on my ears, they also sound good both audio and mic, they're closed back so a little hot for summer, and comes with a usb to trrs mini jack adapter, which is important for the microphone since using a basic splitter to split mic and audio to two trs if you don't have a trrs plug on your pc will introduce noise in the microphone input.

but yeah, the little cables going from the internal pcb to the other side of the headphone will eventually break and need replacing, they're not very hard to fix though.

back when they used to make them, combining shp9500 with a vmoda boompro was the shit, maybe the shp9600 are a good place to go

AKG K712's with a Blue Snowball for a mic

I use the PHILIPS Fidelio X2HR, they are Over-Ear, use removable 3.5 mm and are open back. I love them. You might love or hate open back because you hear your surroundings basically as loud as if you are not wearing headphones. But it is nice if you use VC, because you hear your voice while you speak with them.

Sennheiser x Massdrop PC37X

Had these things for years now, love them

Sony MDR-7506 wired into a Focusrite dac; the tried and true pair that radio stations across the world have used for years and years.

I'm actually using a wireless gaming headset Logitech g533

I'm using a HyperX Cloud Alpha. I like being able to detach the mic when not in use.

I got a pair of Skullcandy Sesh and a pair of Indy that I bounce between. Not a big fan of the can(s). Bonus: I've never tripped over the cord.

I don't know if you can still get them (they aren't in production anymore) but I use a pair of Sennheiser PXC550-II for pretty much everything. They connect either via Bluetooth, TRRS or USB. For slightly advanced entry-level ANC headphones they're overall decent value for the ~$150 I paid.

You'll want to turn off the built-in microphone in your computer's settings though as the audio quality goes down to crappy bluetooth earpiece level as soon as that thing is active. If you're looking for a headset to talk into, go for something else.

Also, if you're going wireless, definitely don't get JBL. Their BT headphones can't be used while charging which is an enormous pain as they take a few hours to do so.

I used Sennheiser HD598 headphones via 1/8 inch jack. For microphone I used some Insignia desktop microphone. Kept some thin acoustic foam under it for vibrations / desk noise.

I use Gradis Sr60x! Well I did, but they're out for repair right now.

Sennheiser HD58x

My wife got them for me for my birthday years ago off of mass drop. They've been solid. No complaints.

AKG K240 Studio (the black/gold ones, not the silver MK II) with a Schiit Fulla DAC/amp.

Sennheiser HD 560S headphones with FiiO dac. I also use a USB Maono AU-PM421 mic for chatting.

Chances are most of the stuff will at least connect to Linux.

I personally have a sennheiser hd598 cs but for Linux, pretty much anything 3.5mm will work for audio. Stuff like rgb may not work but the headphones will be headphonss
