Yeah I thought the warranty was great on my 990s until I read the fine print. They won't repair the headphones for any problems that are cable related, which it happened that was my exact issue... Currently I have my 990s working so its not super urgent that I get a new pair right away so I...

  How long is the warranty on the x2s? I can't find that info anywhere, checked amazon and phillips own site and just don't see it. Also does phillips sell replacement parts like beyerdynamic? I needed a new driver for my dt 990s so I just asked and they sent me a part number to order it...

So, if I push my budget to say 300 USD, what would that get me? (I am recently switching banks and the bank I am going to has a 100 dollar promotion for switching to them so basically free money, yay.) Also do the X2s still have quality control issues?

  Is that the 30 dollar model on ebay? (just making sure I am looking at the right one) that looks a bit like the dt 770s? (headband is similar and earcups are kinda similar) I might pick them up in addition to another option. If the fidelio X2s go on sale for 200 usd, should I pick them up...

  Yes, then my dt 990s broke, fixed them now and recently got a bit more money to spend on some new headphones so here I am.

  These will be mainly for non competitive gaming. Things like fallout 4 and divinity original sin is what I'll be playing. I'm not into cs:go twitch shooters or anything that requires a huge soundstage bar anything else. I want explosions to rumble

  The E11 is on setting number two, also on high gain and the switch underneath the battery is set to high aswell. E11 is plugged into my motherboard yes. What I am mainly after is I guess called sub bass? I want explosions to really feel like explosions, right now they feel kind of flat.

  Any opinion on the V moda M 100s? How do the 770s bass compare to the 990? I heard that open headphones don't have much bass so I was assuming the 770s being quite a bit more bass heavy.

So I am looking at: Philips SHP9500 ATH-WS1100iS DT 770 250 Ohm The ATH are 30 bucks outside my price range though, One thing to mention is the 990s I have touch the my ears a bit so size might be an issue... Should I just go with the 770s?

dt 990 250 0hm. Using a Fiio E11

Asus has some sound cards with dolby digital headphones or something similar. I really enjoy that compared to normal 2 channel. But I don't know how it stacks up against some other offerings like creatives or razers.

Pretty much what the title says. Price range is about 200 usd. I can go a bit over if needed but the headphones will have to last me 5+ years, I can't afford 200 dollar headphones every couple months. Primary use will be gaming.

Yeah the fidelio X2 is quite a bit out of my price range at 250 bucks. The high end of my price range is 200 so the v-modas are even a stretch. Maybe I could give a list of features I want and someone could reply back with things that tick the boxes? From most important to least important: 1...

So I have a broken pair of dt 990s that I used for 4 years, one speaker works still. I tried the cable mod and it went badly so now I have to shop for new headphones. My thoughts on each pick. DT 770 250Ohm: I already have a good speaker so if one goes out I can just replace it (assuming I get...

I had at at 5/10, I don't really know what temp that is though. But it nearly instantly turns cold solder to molten solder at that temp. The solder wick I have acts as a heatsink so it just gets hot without heating the solder underneath it, I'll pick up a flux pen while I'm at it. Thanks for...
