How to Force Starfield to Output in Surround when connected to DAC?
silverears, One does not need "surround" headphones to enjoy dolby atmos for headphones.

Do u know a workaround? All...- ronfifer

MC450 vs M1570 vs HE400SE vs DT990: Gaming Impressions
Chastity has your M1570 so ask what is he using to power it, and just compare the power output in wattage. If your amp outputs the same wattage then no need to upgrade. Also check if he is using balanced output with balanced cables. I was having my doubts with your HE400se power, what is the...- ronfifer

MC450 vs M1570 vs HE400SE vs DT990: Gaming Impressions
Thanks for taking the time to share your experience. So I assume you will keep the M1570 for competitive gaming out of the bunch or look for an upgrade within $400-$500? Since you don't like it to be warm, i would still say try the DT1990. Ideally, 1 open-back headphone for close quarters FPS...- ronfifer

[FiiO UTWS5] True Wireless Bluetooth Earhooks as Usual,Coupled with Independent AK4332 DAC
Thanks but that's too much of a hassle to setup in the livingroom. I already have the BTR3K which takes me 60% there, just need it to be able to receive 5.1 signal via bluetooth and convert it to HRTF stereo. I wonder if such bluetooth receiver exists. I even wonder if 5.1 sound can be...- ronfifer

Does this output an HRTF-embedded stereo signal to connected stereo headphones, while the source is playing a 5.1 signal? Just like dolby atmos for headphones app does on PC?- ronfifer

Anyone knows of a bluetooth receiver like the Fiio Btr3k which we can connect our stereo headphones to that can also receive a 5.1 signal and output an HRTF-embedded stereo stream? Just like dolby atmos for headphones does on PC.- ronfifer

2 headphones with good imaging and without the need of an amp, i can suggest: -Beyer TYGR300 -Audio Technica AD900x I did not test the TYGR300, but i did test the AD900x, and while it delivers what he needs to perform well in competitive shooters, it does not have the best sound quality: it is...- ronfifer

the dt1990 can go on sale, or can buy it used, has a big B-stock market. You ordered the M1570 right? which is $600 MSRP so i though you can also try the DT1990...- ronfifer
