Price Point
Drop + HIFIMAN HE4XX
These headphones sound great and are very affordable, but just know what you are getting. If you're looking for some great sounding headphones to listen to around your house using a headphone amp, these would be a great buy. But if you're looking for something to take to the gym, or use at work you'll probably want to look elsewhere. Pros - Excellent sound quality
Logitech G432
Youtube does have a couple of songs using that technology. If you are not listening to such content - turn off surround sound, as it will sound horrible! I am giving this G432 headset a 5/5 because it provides more sound quality for the buck than I could hope for. It also sits very well on my head (I have a relatively thin head shape), for somebody with really "Thicc" head shape I would suggest to skip on these. Mic sounds crisp and clean
Sound Quality
Drop + HIFIMAN HE4XX
My wife disagrees, but I think movies sound punchier and more intimate on grado cans. And they have the side benefit of letting two people listen to something and just talk like nothing since they leak like mad. But again, all round? These babies, hands down.

"BE AWARE!" that majority of audio content on internet is not using that technology, so you have to specifically look for Dolby 7.1 surround sound enabled content..
Comfort
Drop + HIFIMAN HE4XX
All-day comfortable with ease (they can get a tiny bit warm with the alcantara pads in a hot room, but not even close to unacceptable) and utterly zero squeaks or creaks (looking at you, Audio Technica AD700's) The one, ONLY gripe I have with them is the nice cable they have is too short for anything other than a desktop amp or device RIGHT in front of you. BUT, it's replaceable, and lots of companies make cables for them. Side benefit is you can get a balanced cable for them, and if you get a BTR5 as well, that amp has a balanced output option. So they can sound EVEN BETTER

Fit
Drop + HIFIMAN HE4XX
It's not long enough for comfortable PC/ living room AV receiver use for me, so I ordered a replacement cable when I bought the headphone. The replacement cable is that red one that everybody else is buying. I clipped the "braided" part off, and now they're really cool looking red cables. They click really nicely into the headphones - better click than the stock cable

I am, however, having issues with comfort, as this headset is heavier than I'm used to.
Durability
Logitech G432
my fault, but these Logitech feel like they could withstand a little more punishment.)
