Quote: What kind of material is that? It looks like some type of foam, right?  I'm curious where you got them cause I want to try to make a set maybe.    

Yea I figured it out, I'll have to post pics when I get a chance. Ty.

Anyone able to assist? :(

  I seem to be doing something wrong.  In this picture, is the bottom supposed to be stitched just like the top?   <------------

Hey, I'm heading to store to get fabric today, but have a question.  In the picture below, do both the left and right sides of each get sewn?

I have some Beyerdynamic DT770s, but after long periods of use my ears begin to feel uncomfortable.  I want to deepen the depth by an extra third to avoid my ears touching inside.  Does anyone actually specialize in custom pads that I could go to online (or in stores)? 

Quote: I ended up getting some closed cell foam which is basically what you said.  Worked great, cheers.

Quote: Interesting, I'll have to look into this.

Hmm...can't get picture to post.  Oh well, any suggestions appreciated.  

So these headphones are extremely comfortable except for the fact my right ear slightly touches the inside of the speaker.  And I mean it hardly touches.  But, it becomes really uncomfortable over extended use. Is there any way to deepen the ear pad?   I've seen a picture of using cotton on...

I really don't think it matters what headphones you are wearing to hear a difference...you either can hear it or you don't.  One is clean while the other has some effect or "distortion" if you will. 

Thanks zombiz_x, very insightful.

I am new to the whole audiophile thing, but I have spent several, several, several hours on these forums the last week.  I have read several posters opinions and what I found interesting is this.  Apparently, an amp will not help in game for FPS in regards to directional sounds.  You may have...

Quote: I'm hoping that the stx control panel allows me to adjust the positioning to correct it.  However, in your original post you said the DT 770 pro 80 has the best directional sound out of any headset you tried.  Does this mean you can tell where a shot is coming from, but not...

Is there a difference in directional cues/soundstage between each of the DT880 versions (32, 250, 600ohms) in first person shooters?

Quote: I'm using Dolby Headphone through the asus xonar stx card which is superior in my opinion.  The surround sound in certain gaming headsets has much less quality as they are using multiple cheap drivers.  So I'm avoiding them for now. To be fair, the g35 does use dolby headphone.  I...

I've been researching for a few weeks and choosing a specific headphone is really more than I ever imagined.  In fact, this whole audiophile thing has got me obsessed with reading reviews/comparing constantly like its becoming unhealthy, hehe.    Anyway,  I'm looking for a headphone/headset...

As the title says, would I need an additional amp/dac for any DT880 in 32, 250 or 600 ohms for strictly gaming?  I have an ASUS Xonar Essence STX which says it powers up to 600 ohms with its built in amp.  How much truth there is to this, I'm not sure.  To put it fairly, I'm an audiophile noob...

Sweet, there's a whole thread here dedicated to the Beyers.  Help would be appreciated.   I'm looking for some guidance on the Beyerdynamic DT880 headphones strictly for gaming on PC..  I currently have an Asus Xonar Essence STX sound card and I'm really confused on which of the three...

Long time lurker finally making the jump in.  Anyway, I'm looking for some guidance on the Beyerdynamic DT880 headphones strictly for gaming.  There are three versions (32, 250, 600 ohms).  I currently have an Asus Xonar Essence STX sound card and I'm really confused on which of the three...
