Alright absolute last question :D   Im down to one of two setups   Q701 + E11 + Astro Mixamp   DT 990 PRO 250OHM + E11 + Astro Mixamp   Q701s come out to about 50-70$    Anything to help me choose greatly appreciated thanks again :D

Quote: Also curious what you think of your Q701s, and how they compared to whatever you previously had 

FiiO e6 more than sufficent ? for Q701 + mixamp + mic ?    Or should I spend the extra money (only like 20-25$) to get the E11 

Well I guess my biggest issue with the HD 598s was they kind of lack immersion.   I mean im willing to sacrafice some positional accuracy, so that when im playing something its more of a  WOW THAT SOUNDS AWESOME .   Q701s are basically the exact same price as the HD 598, so in your...

So I have a pair of HD 598's that ive been using for about a year, and I have to say im a little underwhelmed with them. I kind of expected more.   My dad wanted me to get him a pair, so im thinking about giving him mine, and getting something new.   I use em for console/pc/movies all...

I want to invest in a relatively cheap ( 200$ or less) sound bar for a tv.   Its not a main tv room so I have no interest in investing in a big set up with a reciever sub etc etc    I would tremendously appreciate any recomendations    Its for a master bedroom just to give an idea...

Quote: ATH-A900 vs ATH-A900x (these just came out this year) ?   Assuming I could get the A900s for 190 or the A900x for 224   Is it worth the extra 34 bucks ?   Much appreciated, thanks ! 

Hes kind of set on these http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826106577   Sennheiser HDR 180, 130$.   Is that a decent set of cans for a decent price for what he wants them for ?   Would mucho appreciate the input 

Well thats the other thing.   Im helping him pick out a new tv, so if theres anything that the tv should ideally have (ie a 1/4 or mini jack) then it wouldnt be too hard to make it happen.   I would think that some kind of wireless headphones would be most convient, however im all about...

Basically im trying to find a pair of headphones for an older person who is hard of hearing for the sole purpose of watching tv.   I know a decent bit about gaming headgear, but have absolutely no idea what id be looking for (or even compatability) for something that I could hook up to a...

Alright so recently purchased a wired Astro Mixamp + HD 598 headphones (plan on using it for both PC/Xbox 360/PS3 so thats why I bought a Mixamp over a new Sound Card).   I have an Asus P5Q-E motherboard for audio on my pc (Windows 7)...

Mad where were those clip on mics you recommended ?  I remember seeing them buried somewhere earlier but cant seem to find them.   If you could recomend one or 2 much preciated 

Now the biggest question of all, where can I get a good deal on a nice set of DT880s ?   (and is it safe to presume that the DT 880 blow away the new MMX 300s which look very similar to it, albeit have a 5 year warranty) 

Quote: Just gotta figure out what I can handle and what ill need first.    I mean I have no problem dropping under 400 to get a nice setup (ie a dt880 + dss/mixamp/e7 etc), but dont want to spend close to 400 and then realize i need to spend another 150 or so on a soundcard too. ...
