AKG K712 (or the K7XX), Ath ad-700, SHP-9500 would be the best bet from this list (with the AKGs being better all-around), but only for home use since they are open back. If you are going to compete offline you will need a closed back, but avoid the ath-m50s at all cost, what is it even doing here, a decent 200$-ish IEM is miles ahead in terms of..., well, pretty much everything including (!) soundstage. Quite honestly, the m50 is just overhyped "consumer" stuff. Instead, check out the Shure srh-440 or 840. Having owned the 440s I would absolutely recommend them as they are cheap (sub 100$) but you can hardly beat it at that price in terms of positional audio, just excellent. You can also mod them for more comfort if necessary.

Ospreybravo25I think the driver is the same in all k7 whatever model, its just they have different tuning. From what can be read on forums the k7xx is actually very close to the k712 latter being superior of course. I own a k7xx and i would say its great for competitive games.
