I may be reading the last few pages completely wrong, so apologies in advance if this is a stupid question, but I use the G6 with my PS4. I've been using 7.1 and Audio Effects. Should I switch to SPDIF-Out Direct? Just want to double check and make sure I'm getting the best possible setup. I...

Does anyone have a link to the G6 beta firmware? I know it's a closed beta, but Ryan was seemingly messaging it out to anyone on Reddit, so I personally can't see the harm in sharing it through private messages here. Just means not having to wait for Ryan to check his DM's, but understood if no...

More often than not it's the most simplest thing, and that's the case here - I'd completely forgotten about the gain switch on the side, as I'd always left it on low due to the X2 being so easy to drive, like you said. Thank you so much! I'm a lot happier with the 712 now.

Apologies, I should have mentioned that the G6 is plugged into my PS4. The only option I can see within the PS4 is "Volume Control (Headphones)", but that doesn't change the overall voume. I'm going back and forth between the X2 and AKG 712 Pro, comparing the same music and footage captured in...

Hi, I'm wondering if any of you could offer some advice. I've been using the X2's with the Creative G6 and fancied trying out the AKG 712 Pro's. They've arrived today and they sound great, even more comfortable than the X2's, which I thought was impossible... But I wish I could turn the...

Hi Lay. :) I'd been using 'Adjust Microphone Level' and to me it sounded perfect. I recorded a couple of videos where I tested the mic (while I was in a party), so that I could listen back to it, but then someone else tonight said I sounded quiet so it felt like I was back at square one. I...

PS4 users... Have you had any issues with friends saying you sound a little quiet? I have one friend who says he can hear me loud and clear (although he admits to having his chat volume really high), whereas three others have said I sound quiet. Is it simply a case of adjusting the sidetone...

Many thanks for assisting us with this, MLE. Much appreciated. As Lay. said, we need some way to balance and adjust the chat/game audio. It's been trial and error at the moment. Joined a party last night and a couple of people said I sounded a little far away from the mic, but I couldn't adjust...

Ah, I see. I'm at work and can't test it, I'll have to have a look when I get home, but when the option is grayed out is it set at a default setting? Probably unlikely, but if I was to select "All Audio" and adjust it, when I then clicked back to "Chat Audio" would it remain at what I'd...

Many thanks for all of your help, although I'm guilty of posting before reading. After I posted that I went back and read the last thirty pages or so. Apologies for getting ahead of myself. Thanks to everyone for your helpful responses. I'll be definitely keeping an eye on this thread. The only...

Hi everyone, regarding the Creative G6: I'm coming from the X7 and I do love the G6, but I want to make sure I've got all the settings correct, as the software is a little confusing in comparison to the X7. Apologies if any of these questions are stupid but, for strictly PS4 use paired with...

Can someone help? As I'm close to tearing my hair out... I received my X7 last Thursday, everything is absolutely fine. However I can't seem to get an optical cable to fit. I have one that fits, however it's a rather short optical cable and I need a longer one; I've ordered three off Amazon and...

Hi, I'm currently looking for a shorter headphone cable for my X2; would this be okay?   https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00T6ET2E6/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A30KE3RIHJWD9X   Or any recommendations? I usually go with Anker cables, but I like the look of the Sennheiser...

  Many thanks Yethal. I thought so, but I wanted to double check to make sure I wasn't missing anything.   One last question, for anyone who uses the V-Moda Boom Mic with the X7 and PS4, how did you go about extending the cable? Would an adapter have any kind of impact on the sound quality...

Hi everyone. First of all, thank you for all of your comments and words of advice so far; to someone like me, who's very new to this world, it's been great to read.   I'm currently looking at purchasing an X7. My current setup for PS4 gaming is a V-Moda Boom Mic Pro on a pair of Phillips X2's...
