Interestingly, I have been through the same process sort of. Loved the PC38X with Titanium HD as dac and amp, though the 800S did give a more "open world" feeling in game. Where the 800S really showed its capacity has been in improvements of both DAC and Amp combo's. For a general system...- motorwayne

Same re supporting Creative, but for now I'll be using HeSuVi's version of CMSS (As an owner of 3 Creative cards currently) so I can run a better Amp/Dac combo (I blame Chastity for forcing me to buy the Lyr 3 witha DAC card :dt880smile:) until Creative gets it's act together with a better...- motorwayne

I just tried the HeSuVi version of CMSS so I could hear it on the AK4490 DAC I put into the Lyr 3, apart from the DAC sounding way clearer and more seperated than the Titanium HD dac, I can't really tell the difference between the positional cues of the Hardware or software, bang on accurate to...- motorwayne

The Nameless Guide To PC Gaming Audio (with binaural headphone surround sound)
I have a new question: How do I get CMSS going with this setup? 1) Schiit Lyr 3 amp/AK4490 G2 DAC connected to PC via USB out into digital USB in? The AK4490 DAC sounds better than the Tit HD one imo. 2) I have the Titanium HD still installed on the PC and all of the software etc 3) I do have...- motorwayne

Schiit Lyr Static noise/crackling
SOLVED: Solved by plugging PC power ONLY into a seperate wall socket and plugging the Lyr 3 into a socket as far away as possible, clear as a bell :dt880smile: Edit: Spoke slightly to soon, its 80% better, just small crackle and mouse noise at 75% volume high gain.- motorwayne

My understanding is both of those will work Jot 2 and Lyr 3. I have a Lyr 3 on order.- motorwayne

Cheers for that, I kinda like the Jotunheim and the Lyr as possible replacement amps too, kinda like twins SS & Tube. I can't give up the T-HD until something actually better comes along, not convinced the software replacements are equal let alone better atm.- motorwayne

Roger that, I looked for an Asgard locally but no supply. I ordered a Garage 1217 Horizon 3, looking forward to it. Re the Titanium, yeah I keep it because I prefer the CMSS for open world queues, feel most natural to me. Can you run me through how to keep CMSS with something like the M300? Is...- motorwayne

Quick question: I have some HD800S's arriving next week and currently have my PC sound organised via a modded X-Fi Titanium HD going out through a JDS Atom and into my PC38X headset, will the JDS Atom still do the job and is there going to be any realworld difference if I replace the Atom with...- motorwayne

PC38X was an upgrade for gaming over the HD660S IMHO, so going with the GSX1000 + PC38X as mentioned above by @Soundmancan is a great idea.- motorwayne

Okay so I got it working via the onboard sound port (for a while at least, it was kinda mental and temperamental) and lost the bass and treble control I was used to via the soundcard, is that why you were suggesting full mechanical adjustment via external amp/dac? In an open world game, the...- motorwayne

Is it really? It sounded like an echo chamber to me, not really grounded and kinda artificial. What do you mean by proper head measurements?- motorwayne
