Mad Lust Envy's Headphone Gaming Guide: (8/18/2022: iFi GO Blu Review Added)

It has an inline mic, which I dont ever count as headphones with in line mics as headsets. Headsets to me are those with legitimate boom microphones. In line mics tend to fail next to boom mics.

In line mics also tend to pick up more ambient noise and whatnot.

guys i'm about to go live, and I need you guys to tell me how the mic sounds. It's VERY finicky on the Ultrasone HS-15, as in it has issues plugging in correctly...

It's cool. I turned on my laptop to hear it myself. Sounds fine, I'd say. It's just an absolute pain to get to work.

Yes, I never even had to change any of the settings and it even works with blue rays straight out of the box..been playing uncharted second son and watched a bit of the omega man with Charlton Heston.. it's just youtube that I am having trouble with watching, says I need adobe flash player for some reason?


1.) Which DAC are you using?

2.) Are you listening in stereo, or processed virtual surround?

Is it an optical dac or USB? No way it has surround. If USB, the PS4 uses generic drivers, and will only output stereo. If optical, unless the r dac states it has virtual surround, you ain't getting any. you need to check your sound settings anyways.

It's usb and optical not surround only stereo..the headset has a dongle thingy that gives it a surround ish sound..i have a gaming pc with a pioneer susano av receiver with s81 8.2 speakers for bf4 so not that bothered really!

Looks like I'm pretty much done with the Ultrasone review, so I'll be fixing it, and uploading probably tonight.

Arcam r dac..using sennheiser u320 headset it has some surround!


Ok, so now I know which DAC (and how it's connected), and that you're using something like Dolby PL llx, "enhanced" stereo. People are more often polarized about pro logic IIx, but still, thank you for the info and clarification.

I am impressed with the ps4..got good sound and easy to navigate menus..even twitch tv is enjoyable to watch and easy to type to people..i still haven't figured out how to turn it on yet, I just use the controller to turn it on!

Evs, tried to watch your stream and the app on my Nexus 5 still keeps crashing after about a minute or two. Bummer...

You didn't miss much.  He dies a LOT.  And he likes Apple.
