So I had my HD598 break down on me yesterday after using for a very extensive period. Although I’ve tried many other headphones during this time, I keep coming back to this due to shear comfort alone, especially for gaming. The weird thing about me is that I find comfort probably the most...

  Having tried both the 598 and Game Ones, I can pretty much say that there is no similarities between them. I would say the Game One is more similar to the 555/558. I'm not sure which reviews you have seen, but I'm pretty much with you on the analogy as well.   My only question now is where...

Yeah, it's in a complete package called KH2.5 which has both KH2 and BBS in it. I'm also hoping that they would release it for PS4 as I plan to get both KH2.5 and KH2.8 coming next year to prepare myself for KH3.   KH1.5, 2.5 and 2.8 are Square Enix's way of saying "We're sorry we messed up...

Quite happy to see Valkyrie Profile being mentioned. Lenneth and Silmeria were really great, and you were spot on with the description.   I'm also kinda surprised nobody has mentioned Kingdom Hearts (both 1 & 2). I find the game, to me, is so memorable and enjoyable that I really couldn't stop...

  What? That works? That's pretty interesting, I wish I knew this sooner. I will probably give it a try with my Axaigo adapter lying around somewhere.

  The STX has a better amp compared to the Z. However, the Z is more than enough to drive the Fidelio X1 as they're easy to drive. To be honest, you won't have any issues with any soundcard at all with the X1 in general. I have the Omni and found the amp to be more than capable, and I've been...

Said to be $400. No release date AFAIK

  Gotcha. Thanks!

Just a small question.   I noticed in some screenshots that there's an option to choose low or high gain on the control panel. However, I use the Omni and I don't seem to have them. Is it because it's only for the PCI cards (Z, Zx, Zxr)? or am I updating my software/firmware incorrectly?

Yeah, those will replace my Omni very nicely. Just need to hope they bring it worldwide, and quickly

  Yeah, I also feel the same way. If it wasn't for the story, I would never bother moving forward. I still haven't finished it actually because I wanna get the remastered edition when I get my PS4.

  Since you brought it up, I was wondering if there's a way I can purchase the earpads for Sennheiser headphones around here?

  Just to give an update. After using these for a while, I can safely say you are right on your assumptions, and might just be it for me now. I've been using these constantly, and I have to say, I absolutely love these for movies. Gaming is also fantastic, considering I don't really play FPS...

No, it is mostly due to your preference only. Some people prefer SBX, while others prefer Dolby Headphone.

  Did you ask anyone? Not sure why, but the grados aren't really anywhere on the store (or maybe not easily findable). You'll have to ask to get them. They're also limited in the models they have, and none of the branches has them on display for testing either.
