    Audeze Mobius review / impressions

    This. I really think this would make a really compelling use case. My trackIR 5 never worked well despite a lot of troubleshooting.. Looking at the head tracking in the audeze app it looks like it would work MUCH better for in game head tracking.

    Sennheiser HD800 S Impressions Thread (read first post for summary)

    I'm having trouble finding the answer to this... are the cables between the HD 800/S and 820 interchangeable?

    Audeze Mobius review / impressions

    It's been... like 100 pages since I last looked at this thread. Is the new firmware supposed to address the sidetone (option to turn it off) and mic volume issues? I still use the included microphone (for some reason plugging in my modmic 5 into the mic input on the headphones gave some really...

    Audeze Mobius review / impressions

    Mine does not. I have started a help ticket to see what they say. I'm using USB-C, generally using discord for voip. When I turn the headset on it defaults to 44% (I've been turning them off at night). I need to have it at 100% for anyone to even hear me (windows setting at 100%, discord...

    If anyone finds a USB-C to USB-C cable that is like 9ft with decent cable phonics let me know. I bought the amazon basics 9ft one and it isn't great.

    Yes that is the setting I called the windows volume in my original comment. Oddly the Mobius windows settings doesn't have the boost slider.

    Audeze Mobius review / impressions

    It's really bad for me. For whatever reason I need to have windows volume at max, discord volume at max, and the headset volume at max for people to hear me, and I hear my breathing a LOT in my headphones. If I shout or laugh loudly or anything it is super loud. This is an absolutely needs to be...

    Audeze Mobius review / impressions

    Hah what a typical headfi response, taking a statement and overblowing it. I used that qualifier ("I think") because it was my experience, and I only played for 15 minutes. Also the fact that you think those other headphones are poor just because they are not gaming oriented makes me think you...

    Audeze Mobius review / impressions

    I played a few games of PUBG and I thought I could hear footsteps better than my old setup of grado PS500 or sony 1000mx2 running through my audio-gd dac/amp.

    I'd stick with HRTF off until the devs confirmed they fixed it. Can you turn off the microphone automatically getting played back through the headphones? If I run my finger over the mic I can hear it.

    Which albums sound best with your Grado?

    Battles - Futura on the album Gloss Drop is a really fun song on my PS500s :)

    Do you secretly respect Beats?

    This might be the one tiny positive from the beats craze, but I still think they are massively ripping off consumers and that is kind of depressing.

    Reply to review by 'el aye' on item 'Audio Technica ATH-AD700'

    I haven't tried the HD518 so I can't really comment on them. I think for Rock/Metal I would go with the SR80i, but honestly it is a very tough choice since they each have a very different sound. I think the AD700s have more clarity/soundstage, but like most mention its bass is kind of lacking...

    Great pair of headphones that I used mainly for gaming and music.  I attached a Zalman mic around the cable and it made for a pair of "gaming" headphones that blew away any actual gaming headsets.  Before purchasing these I was exclusively using Grado SR-80s for 4 years, so part of my motivation...
