a bit out of budget, but I would recommend these
I use AKG Q701 headphones with an Asus Essence STX soundcard and a $20 desktop mic from bestbuy.
True headphones > Headset. I can hear everything!!!

Q701 are the cheapest at $170 and have long been known as great for gaming.

Might catch those or a different color on sale during BF/CM.
Harman has some b-stock K7XX for $150 https://www.harmanaudio.com/akg/K7xx+B-Stock.html?cgid=akg&dwvar_K7xx%20B-Stock_color=Black-GLOBAL-Current
The K7XX have more bass. So the Q701 would be a more preferrred for gaming. Because they are somewhat bass light, makes it easier to hear footsteps in competitive FPS. But I prefer the K7XX for music, so better all around, IMO.
If you're willing to spend a little extra cash, I'd like to recommend the AKG q701s along with a simple $-Channel Amp. Fantastic headphones, my favorites.
Looking to purchase headphones. ~200 budget. I enjoy bass, but I listen to all types of music so as long as there is SOME bass, I'm good. I stay mostly in the prog rock/chill out electronic scene.

Any others I should consider? All help and opinions are appreciated.
AKG Q701 sounds about right for you if you like the extra punch but also want excellent quality.
