& Thank you again.

No, there's no loud buzzing noise, lol. If that were normal, nobody would buy these.
The difference in spec between the Z/ZX and the Omni is negligible. They're almost exactly the same thing. I wouldn't worry about spec difference. You get all the benefits of the ZX (all your connections up top of the desk) but at a fraction of the cost. I know price isn't an issue, but that doesn't mean you HAVE to spend more if you're not getting any benefit.
Honestly, I'm not even sure why anyone would choose the ZX over the Omni.
Regarding Mixamp vs Recon, they both have their pros and cons and either will be a fine choice. Recon will work on your computer and console, but not at the same time, so that's something to consider (the potential hassle of cable swapping).
1 - No, you don't need an amp and DAC. You may need an amp if you get headphones that are hard to drive, but since you don't have any headphones yet, that's easy to avoid.
2 - Look for headphones that rank high in the "fun" factor and read the reviews to see how comfy they are. Pick a few that look good to you and we can maybe help narrow it down.
3 - Yes, generally speaking, the higher resistance ones sound better. However, they're also harder to drive properly. For example, 32ohm will sound fine from your phone, 250ohm not so good from your phone but better than the 32 from a proper source.
4 - The ZX will provide your surround sound. You can use any headphone/headset you want once you have the ZX.
* - If you don't know if the audio module is useful, you should probably save a few bucks and get the Z instead of the ZX.
Before you read on, I want you to know that I am only gaming on PS4!
I originally planned on getting HD598s but I was wondering..
Say, I bought better headphones with good bass that I could also lower with the equalizer on the 2014 mixamp from Astros (when it releases in october) to make them less bassy for better pinpoint accuracy for footsteps or etc.
Could I also get some input on headphones at that level compatible (best sound quality) with the astro mixamp?
2014 Mixamp from Astros? They are only releasing a new Mixamp (M80) that is compatible with the Xbox One as far as I know. The PS4 still gets the normal 2013 pro edition, where did you read they are going to release a new Mixamp in October for the PS4?
Is that a New model in tho picture or just a New look?
Anyone knows how soundblaster Recon3D mix the game and chat audio, works likes mixamp? Can I control in the device how much audio goes to game and chat? Or is a fixed value setting on PC?
Thx
I agree the K702's sound amazing with games, and I'm very impressed with the virtual surround that the Mixamp provides, but I'm disappointed with the white noise issue. Absolutely no call for that on a unit that costs £120.
I suppose I could try getting used to it as you say, but then I could also return the unit and get a refund and try buying another surround processor such as the Recon3D. I don't use a mic at all so I won't be needing a separate amp to drive the K702's if I do get the Recon3D.
Anybody encountered any issues similar to the Mixamp hissing noise while using a Recon3d?
