    Review by 'ActiveTechREV' on item 'Logitech Wireless Gaming Headset G930 with 7.1 Surround Sound'

    I'm not one that likes over the hear head phones (I'm an in-ear type of guy) but my only comparison to this style of headphones is the Beyerdynamic DT770 . I know you guys will probably crusify me for making this comparison, but it's my only reference point. I love these headphones and for...

    Review by 'ActiveTechREV' on item 'Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro-80 Closed Studio Headphones'

    I made a video review of the dt770 80ohm  quite sometime ago and was finally finished it. I got them on sale at Guitar Center for $179.99 , the deal was better than anywhere on the web so I jumped on it. When I auditioned them in-store, I was quite impressed.  I'm not much of an over the ear...

    Jaybirds Blue Buds X Wireless or Beats By Dr Dre Powerbeats 2 for wireless in-ear?

    I've had the Jaybird BBX for over a year and loved them.  I could barely live without them, but they kept breaking on me.  The cool thing about jaybird is that they have great customer service and sent me a new pair after they malfunctioned. After I recieved a 4th pair I decided to sell them and...

    DT-770 Pro 's Love Them and hate them - Clamping force

    At first the dt 770 pro's were too sibilant.  It hurt my ears.  Then when I EQ'd them towards base, wow, what a sound!  The sound is so good! Yesterday I was for sure going to return them, but then I shared them with my wife and she loved the sound.  They said they make her feel good.  Mind you...

    I just got these a few days ago and you're describing almost exactly what I'm experiencing, but I got a question.   When you say.. "The biggest negative with these is the break-in.  I almost returned the headphones when I first got them as I found the highs PAINFUL and piercing.  at first...

    I've been using these with my note 4 and have found that hey don't get loud enough for me.  If I go full blast for 30  minutes  my ears ring afterwards. I totally agree with what you said about prior experience.      I'm also in the same boat as you trying to understand how to explain what I'm...

    I've had these for a few days and I agree that mid range is a bit too loud when compared to the rest.  They sound great though.  What music were you listening to?

    I want over the ear / in ear to be comfortable, help me choose a pair . Big ears, big head.

    Okay cool thanks a bunch!  I'm a little concerned about over stretching them. Should I be?  I guess at this point it's doesn't matter but any suggestions on how much to stretch them. I was doing books about the width of my head, maybe a little wider.  Is that too much or enough?

    I want over the ear / in ear to be comfortable, help me choose a pair . Big ears, big head.

    Thought about the hd598 but went to guitar center and picked up the Dt 770 pro  80ohm.  When i was in store they were great.  Cup sizes were just big enough to allow my ear to fit and roam in side without being pressed down, but I got a new problem with them.  They have some clamping pressure...
