    Mad Lust Envy's Headphone Gaming Guide: (8/18/2022: iFi GO Blu Review Added)

    hi guys, recently bought the sennheiser gsp 300 and every time I turn the mic downwards, it seems to be unable to keep its position and it would always bottom out. even if i set it at a half way position (closer to my mouth), the mic would slowly turn downwards. while it doesnt really impact my...

    It's likely they were badly mixed though my simple mod has managed to reduce the harshness, and I just found out my right cup has the grattle which was a little frustrating. I tried blowing hard into the cup several times and it's like a raffle where the rattle would become worse or less, for...

    i've no experience when it comes to modding grado headphones, so these kind of simple mods would probably be it. though I am still eyeing on that RS2 and if I could solve the issue with the SR60e, I would have less worries of buying the RS2 cause then it'll be like i'm buying the RS2 for the...

    I've been listening to my SR60e for about a year now, though I have recently purchased the generic G pads. I actually tried something earlier which is cutting out the cloth of my old Beyerdynamic DTX 510p's ear cups and then placing it on top of the SR60e's grill cloth, and right now those...

    wow i love those mods you did! I wouldn't deny that my source isn't up to par and is likely having harshness in it though with the comfy pads they were unnoticeable to me at least, while with these generic G pads it hurts and at times fatiguing to keep it on. I bought these pads for around $25...

    I've tried them on with the comfy pads and I did not hear all those harshness like i did with the G bowl pads. it's as if with the G bowl pads the treble knob is turned to full and everything becomes super bright, i'm noticing more instruments in the background when listening to music but when...

    unfortunately I don't have the L cushion pads to try it out. I've always considered myself attracted to grado's house sound but in this case the SR60e with the G bowl pads is just too harsh for me. however all these harshness were only experienced when I watch youtube / movies or play games, and...

    I meant the G bowl pads which I'm currently using The G-pads that I bought were also deeper than normal, and from what I understand from the seller, it isn't OEM Grado. All I know is that the SR60e is harsh with these on, and I'm hoping by buying the RS2 and using these pads, it would be...

    I didn't like the fact the comfy pads are on ear and I bought the bowl pads so I could have it over ear. But this issue has forced me to go back to the comfy pads while I try to look for an upgrade that could allow me to go over ear.

    Hi guys, I've recently changed my SR60e comfy pads to a set of GS1000 bowl pads and found that while I am now able to notice more details in songs, it's also having quite a sibilance/trebles issue especially in games/youtube videos/movies. I've auditioned the RS2 for abit but didn't really get...

    Headphone Gain on Xonar Essence STX always doesn't work after each reset

    edit: i seem to have found the cause for this issue, and it is my graphic card's hdmi audio driver that's conflicting with asus' driver. once i disabled it and reinstalled the unified xonar drivers and then restarted, the gain remained to normal.

    Headphone Gain on Xonar Essence STX always doesn't work after each reset

    yup, i've disabled the on-board audio in the BIOS and im also using the unified xonar drivers. i think i've started coming across this issue this year, ever since one of the windows 10 update. swapping PCI-e slots or reseating will help solve the issue for abit, until a new windows update...

    Headphone Gain on Xonar Essence STX always doesn't work after each reset

    Hi, I've been having this problem lately where my Essence STX's headphone gain would always be at 300~600 ohm, even if you selected 64 ohm (low) gain, every time I reset my PC. Reseating the card usually fixes the issue but after awhile, the problem will arise again, and it's happening on each...
