Thanks to Ted for repairing my cables so quickly. I want to support these private businesses so was happy to pay for labor and postage if needed. Ted's a real gentleman: fixed everything with minimum fuss and sent them back without charging for anything. Working well. He provides an honest and...- headwilier

If only they had a built in mic, or add-on, that would make them perfect with a ps4- headwilier

Sony 9.1ch Digital Surround Headphone System MDR-HW700DS
Gotten to the stage in my life with kids and family and decent job but limited private time where I need something convenient, plug and play etc which does have format support. Had previously poor experiences with combining different components like a toshiba Dolby headphone device and hdmi...- headwilier

Sony 9.1ch Digital Surround Headphone System MDR-HW700DS
I really needed these to complement my lossless audio for movies and to incorporate both Dolby and DTS formats. I do agree that it's expensive compared to other simpler solutions, e.g. for PS4 or WII U gaming, and in some ways, the absence of a mic actually makes them less suitable for online...- headwilier

Sony 9.1ch Digital Surround Headphone System MDR-HW700DS
Tested them with The Bourne Legacy (DTS 5.1), and set the device to "Cinema DTS Neo X". Really immersive surround sound. Very powerful and showed some good height effects. Because Bourne is all about how hyper sensitive he is to his surroundings, the sound mixing is really suitable for showing...- headwilier

Sony 9.1ch Digital Surround Headphone System MDR-HW700DS
Just got the HK version and these are amazing for movie watching. The surround effects are close to a real 5.1 surround system, except for less bass and centre channel feeling more in the head than on the screen. Overall this is the best I've heard in headphone surround technology. Well worth...- headwilier

Brand Spanking New A&K AK120II and AK100II
Best not to keep changing cables on the 8s as the connection can become loose or damaged over time. I had Ted make me a 2.5 mm silver balanced cable + a very short 2.5mm balanced-to-3.5mm_single_ended adapter cable. Now i just use my 8s with my AK120II (balanced) or with my iphone 6 (balanced +...- headwilier
