Selling my TH900, because I'm pretty much done with the headphone game, and I can live with the X2 alone. I haven't been using headphones much lately, regardless. I'd rather use the funds on something outside of audio tech.

Wow. Those are gorgeous. I'd totally buy them if I could even remotely afford it.
 
I hope you're not going to stop reviewing cans altogether. You have a great talent, sir.

I can't promise anything. I have a near zero motivation to do any review. My TH-600 review has been pretty much done months ago, and I can't be arsed to finish the last 15%.

Man, I'd pick them up if I wasn't already getting the ZMF Omni.
 
I'll miss the new reviews. It was how I got started looking for a headphone for gaming.

Not saying I won't review, just that at this point in time, I don't have a desire for it.

You guys can at least forget about a TH900 review. Not going to review based on memory, and if it sells, that guarantees it's not getting reviewed. It's already packed up regardless.

Hi, nice roundup. 
Im used to be a reviewer for mouse, keyboard and other gaming stuff. I got some expertise about that, but often some brand ask me to review headset and i feel a little umcomfortable about that.
I do not like to introduce myself like an expert in a field when i'm not.
 
I'm searching for some models to improve my expertise. Im thinking to buy AD700 and superlux hmc681 evo. If you want to add some models to my whishlist you're welcome.
 
Second question. How would you rate the HyperX Cloud?

My personal favorite closed-back budget-friendly corded headset. That said, headphone > headset unless it's absolutely necessary that you have a non-detachable mic.

Isn't HyperX Cloud made by Beyerdynamic and sold under Kingston's name?

Nope, it's made for Kingston by the Swedish OEM company QPad. It's a rebrand of their QH-90 headset.

Weird, that design screams Beyer.

Yeah it does. The headbands are basically identical... and the rest isn't much of a stretch either.

I have tried many headsets. Most of them weren't worth the money. I can't tell you how many headphones I've auditioned, I've lost count.

So, there were some headsets that were worth the money. Please tell us everything about them.

HyperX Cloud
SkullCandy SLYR
 
Again, only if a headset is an absolute requirement. Otherwise buy a headphone.
 
No, I'm not going to do a mini-review on either because I advocate headphone use over headset gaming. Better sound > convenience.
