Thank you so much! I was unaware they're selling refurbished products on my local Creative site. Maybe I'll get a refurbished GC7 even!

I'm live outside USA so shipping + customs would equal to 1.6-1.8x the price. That's why GC7 is the only option for me as of now.

Damn it! Looks like I have to pull the trigger otherwise my mind won't rest it seems. For the last 2 years I have been thinking about solid SxFI product & seems like GC7 is the one.. Atleast for the near future.

This is the comparison I was looking for. I guess I'll stick with Redscape for now unless I get to hear a demo of SxFI. I really was hoping to send SXFI to DX7 Pro but that can't be done. Hope creative rectifies via an update. Then I'll go for it I think.

So I should give Redscape another go and play around with head width and ear size settings? Also, do you have any comparison between SxFI and Redscape?

I currently use DX7 Pro + DT1990 as regular driver. I would say 70% of my listening time is for FPS games like Warzone and rest is Music + Movies. Currently my local store is selling Creative GC7 at an discounted price. I read that the SxFI is one of the best surround sound implementation, with...

Of course, the sound cues are just something that helps us, not something that can substitute other required skills to win. So, I'm still using the old AD700. Is the newer 700x model same or better?

Yup, I am only looking for something which can be considered as a true upgrade of AD700 for competitive FPS. I am pretty happy with my K712 for everything other than competitive gaming. Besides the Shure 1840, are there any other options(within $800) I should also check out as a definite upgrade...

Elex will cost me me nearly twice their price thanks to custom charges and intl. shipping. Ananda, DT-1990 and T1(3rd gen) are locally available. Amongst these 3,which one would you recommend me to get for VSS + competitive gaming?

First of all, I would like to thank all the contributors who have posted in this thread. This has been the guide for me which has helped me a lot. So currently I'm using K712 Pro/AD700 with X7. Redscape as VSS. K712 is for casual gaming, music and movies. While I use AD700 for competitive...

Just received the X7 as well as the AKG K712. I was wondering what impedance settings should I be using for the said Headphone. On the box I can see that it has an impedance rating of 62ohms. So technically the default 32/300Ohm should work fine for this. But I've also head how hard to drive...
