    Yamaha receiver vs. Sound Blaster Z for Philips X1's

    I'm going to post this in "Computer Audio" as it seems like the correct spot for it, I apologize if I'm mistaken.   I currently have my PC hooked up via HDMI to a Yamaha RX-V373 5.1 receiver from my 2nd ATi HD6950 (crossfire setup) video card. I switch to the HDMI when I want to use my...

    Samson SR850 repalcements. Gaming and music.

    No matter what I do I just can't make these SR850's fit well enough to use for more then an hour or so at a time, which is a shame cause they sound awesome.   I need recommendations for a replacement set of head/ear phones used mostly for gaming and music. They do not have to be portable as...

    AKG Tiesto K67's build quality issues still?

    Picked up a pair of the K67's yesterday, I almost grabbed the K167's instead ($150). I'm looking for an alternative to my Samson SR850's. I love the 850's but God they uncomfortable... General use, gaming, and music listing.   Does the K67's/K167's still have the build quality issues I've read...

    Picked up some Samson SR850's, I'm hooked!

    Long story short I've been fooled into buying "gaming" headsets pretty much all my life. My last purchase was the Astro A40 set with the Mixamp Pro. After buying the headset I was forced to buy a sound card that supported Dolby Digital Live... enter the Sound Blaster Z, great little sound card...
