I mainly play single player games. Even when I was playing The Division 2, it was 90 percent single player mode. But yes, I love a game with great sound atmospherics, ex the first Dead Space game - the sounds all around. Here, a headphone like the HD800S is great for that.

I'm using mine now as I play Cyberpunk 2077; although I most definitely did not buy them with gaming in mind.

I've not heard the Sennheiser HD820 (have the 800S), but they are closed back, and are built on the HD800S philosophy. You can Google them to research.

This is like the 4th time I've seen this album posted. I was over at another forum last night and saw it, after that a couple of posters posted it saying they'd not heard it in ages. I guess I'm now added to the list as I too have not played this in ages. Listening now..... Principles of Lust...

My PC / Audio setup... Right top, Denafrips Artemis HPA (headphone amp), Middle, Denafrips Pontus 12th-1 DAC, bottom, Rotel RCD-1072 CD player, now replaced with Teac's VRDS 701 CD player. To the left of the Ray Charles CD is the Denafrips Iris 12th DDC (Digital to Digital Converter). The PC...

I listened to Crossing some months back as I was considering whether to get it or not, but I couldn't get into that one. Will have to give it another listen. Anyway all this Herbie Hancock talk has got me listening to Death Wish (1974) soundtrack... Favs on that are Death Wish (Main Title)...

I have 7 of their albums also including that one (their first). They're a great group. Love Corinne Drewery's vocals. The last album I have by them is Beautiful Mess (2008). Also a good album. I have all those and more, but my favorite will always be Man-Child. Was my first "jazz album" and it...

Headphones are a personal thing. That said there are all kinds of shapes, sizes, and weight so lumping all things together because of one particular brand or model is kind of like saying you don't like ice cream because you didn't like strawberry. Well.... there are other flavors :wink: At the...

I don't know If I would spend a 1500+ on headphones just to game. And before I get jumped on, I'm a huge gamer - Cyberpunk, Skyrim, Division 2, Mass Effect, Dragon Age to name a few. I also build PC gaming rigs for myself as a hobby. Still, I can't see paying 1500+ for headphones just to play...

Where are the ads cause I don't see any there? Edit. I just read this blurb from the update...

Thanks. And your link is for a European vendor, I provided a U.S. based vendor in the post above yours. If one is a US citizen, they can just shop there and wouldn't have to worry about international shipping fees and wait times. In the end it all evens out.

▶ PC (JRiver Media Center / FLAC files) > Iris DDC > Pontus DAC > Artemis HPA > HD800S Fuse One - Silk (1981) ... Featured band members include Stanley Turrentine, Wynton Marsalis, Stanley Clarke, George Benson, Leon "Ndugu" Chancler, Eric Gale, Marcus Miller, and Dave Valentine to name a...

I find all the DMP discs to sound quite good. I have quite a few of them including solo albums from members of F & BB - Warren Bernhardt, Billy Barber, Bob Berg (Denon Label). Anyway, my favorite Flim & The BB.s is Tricycle, but I like all their stuff. These are all their CDs. New Pants is...

How do you want me to quantify that?

"a pinch over $100" for what length? That matters. I got a 6.6-foot Excalibur for $145+taxes. From Sjofn Hi-Fi out of Seattle Washington (USA) via ▶ e-Bay store. No two-day shipping but no more than 3-4 days depending on when order is placed and shipped. Also, very friendly and easy to work...
