Kingston HyperX Cloud vs Steelseries Siberia V2
Kingston, only because Steelseries is like Apple: way too much profit margin compared to competitors.
Although if you can afford a Sennheiser or even a Razer, try that. But even Logitech has good ones for low price, if you don't want to have some fancy brand.

I have tried both and I think HyperX Cloud is a rebadge of a better headset, overall from accessories things they give you the HyperX is really nice, its closed and the sound quality is nice but a little punchy on the bass side. The Siberia V2 is decent but may or may not have a comfort fit, and the mic may or may not break overtime while the Cloud has a detachable mic as well as replaceable ear cups.

HD598 are hard to drive - I would never, ever drive these without a decent amp. Also I'd never buy headphones in that price-range without comparing them to others - with my own ears. Upwards of $100 you should never buy blindly. Yeah, the HD598 are decent, but somebody else might prefer other headphones. Especially in and around the price-range of the 598's there's a lot of decent headphones, such as the DT770, DT990, DT860 Edition, K612, K701, Focal Spirit One and so on...

The HyperX Cloud 2 fixes all of the first one's problems you know. And while the Cloud is highly rated, a lot of notable audiophiles use the V2 as a "guilty pleasure" for gaming. Not so sure about for music with either of them though but it probably won't be so bad either way.

Pretty hard to find a better headset at the price of the first generation HyperX Cloud, there are better of course but it will cost you

I have saved up enough to buy either one of these headsets. I am not sure whether to buy HyperX Cloud or Siberia V2 :/
Please let me know your reason why.
I am open to suggestions and recommendations too :D Looking for wired headsets mainly for gaming and listening to music.
