A Are these HD800S and T1 2nd gen or the first gen of both? What equipment are using with them? Your post is making me consider returning these to try out the HD800S, but it is $400 more and I've heard a lot of other people prefer the T1.2 over them. I am really enjoying the T1.2 right now...

My T1 2nd gen arrived yesterday and it's everything I could have hoped for in a headphone! It sounds just like a grown up dt1770. The soundstage is great, amazing clarity, and very smooth listening experience I can listen to these for hours with no fatigue at all. They are also extremely...

I'll be sure to let you know what I think of the dt1770 vs t1.2 when they come tomorrow! I've heard so many mixed things about which is better HD800S vs T1.2 that I think it's just down to preference.

I went ahead and ordered the beyer t1 2nd gen for now from amazon. They have free returns until jan 31st since it's the holiday season so if they don't blow me away I'll return it and order the HD800s. I went with them first because I really do like my dt 1770 and I read the t1.2 soundstage is...

Quote: Thanks a lot for the reply, I will be sure to look over each of the suggestions you wrote! The ModMic looks like a very cool idea and it also opens up a lot of different options for me to explore.   I've noticed some threads about the Senheiser HD 600, with lots of positive...

Hello, thank you for taking the time to read my thread!   I am currently looking for a nice headset for gaming and music purposes (would also consider headphones with clip on mic). I would mostly be playing MMOs and some FPS games like BF3 on the PC and the music I listen to is mostly from...
