I have a very simlilar background to @rc10mike   I have so many headsets it is crazy.  This includes modded AD700 with vmoda boompro, HD650, several A40s, various Turtle Beaches, and Kingston HyperX Cloud.   I also have a lot of mixamps: 5.8 , Mixamp Pro 2011, and Mixamp Pro 2013.  Don't...

I use this setup on my PS4. It works fine.  I have the volumes the same level as when I use my A40 headset. I have a 2011 and both work fine.   I have a mixamp 5.8 as well.  I will see how it works too and report back.   I am still trying to decide which I like better..... I also have...

Boompro works well with my mixamp 2013 and PS4

I contacted astro and they said I needed to get a new mixamp that received firmware updates. I found a steal on craigslist and never tried an old model.

Who does saphire121 need to send it to next?   Let's confirm they are a vouched and active member.  Let's also confirm how long they keep it before passing on to the next person. 2 weeks?

I msged him on Reddit, and he replied.   "from saphire121 sent 31 minutes ago Oh boy. I totally forgot about that. I'll post on the headfi forum tonight "

So who for sure has the prototype?   I have zero interest in this product as I don't plan to have these headphones, but if the person that has it is near me, I will gladly go to their house and get it.   Worst case there has to be a head-fier near them.   PM me their name address etc if...

I have a pre2013 Astro Mixamp.  I am getting a PS4 soon, and I've read there will be issues.  Basically because  pre2013 Mixamp's firmware cannot be updated to fix issues.   What are the issues?   Is it possible to still use it, but forgo the MIC basically?  Just use it for sound whoring.  I...

So I am finally building a PC after many years away from the scene.  Nothing too fancy, but it will work.... i7-4770k (NIB $150 Craiglist find with microcenter receipt :) ), asus z87, 660GTX, Win8 Pro. I do have a Schiit Modi amp, but did not need it with my AD700s like I did with my Senn...

OK, I picked up one of those Yamaha RX-V673 7.2-Channel Network AV Receivers for a crackhead deal on amazon!  I can't wait to see how it compares.....

Ordered! Thanks!   What will I use these for again???  :)

  Based on his lack of reading, I assumed he didn't see it was the clear choice.  :)

I think everything is covered in post 1 of this thread.   I'd get a mixamp pro 2011 or 13 or 5.8,a pair of Philips X1, and a v-moda boompro. Maybe consider a Schiit Magni depending on which mixamp you get.   EDIT for links: Philips Fidelio X1/28 Premium Over-Ear Headphones ...

I've tried many mice G9x, various Razers, about everything.  I'm an old school FPS PC gamer.  Read Quakeworld/Q3/CS 1.6 player.  I find laser based mice have lag or something is off.  I keep going back to my G400 with optical.  About the only mouse I have not tried is the revised G400s.  That...

Do you experience any sound delay? I cannot stand any lag of sorts, sound, image, mouse, perhaps due to my old school fps quakeworld/quake3/cs cpl background. While I wasn't that good in grand scheme of things, I still have zero tolerance. I finally moved from a CRT monitor lol. I'd love the...
