Searching for a decent, budget (<$150 USD), over-ear, wireless headphone. Primarily for gaming but general daily drivers. Is this a lost cause?
Budget - <$150 USD Source/Amp - Computer. No Amp/DAC. How the gear will be used - These will live at home. Will be used primarily for gaming so I would prefer a decent soundstage. Preferred tonal balance - Not a huge audiophile and these would primarily be used for gaming. With that said, love...- BattlePope

Knowledge Zenith (KZ) impressions thread
Does anyone know where I can buy a replacement stock cable for the KZ ZS3? I just noticed that mine is starting to wear and I'm looking to replace it but would prefer not to pay the $10 for an "upgrade" cable if I can swing it.- BattlePope

This got buried so I'll try again. Hopefully nobody minds. Recently got a pair of ZS3's and really like them so far. One of the cables it came with was kinda ripped though so it doesn't stay in my ear nearly as well as the other (undamaged) cord. Figure I might as well get a cord replacement to...- BattlePope

Chinese / Asian Brand IEM Info Thread
Thanks for the reply! Really appreciate it. Going to go ahead and order me some EDR1's now. What's the best place to get them from? GearBest? I'm assuming shipping time is going to take a while, correct? While I'm going to go ahead and order the EDR1's, I did have a few quick questions. How do...- BattlePope

Chinese / Asian Brand IEM Info Thread
Realized right after I posted it that I should be more specific. I'm not enough of an audiophile to have a specific sound signature that I'm looking for. I currently own a set of Jaycar Pro Monitors (Brainwavz HM5 rebrands) and a pair of Tascam TH-02's; haven't owned/listened to anything else...- BattlePope

Chinese / Asian Brand IEM Info Thread
Interested in picking up a cheap pair of IEMs for portable use (and possibly running). Unfortunately don't have time to read through a 1000+ page thread so could anyone give me 1-3 that I should be looking into getting? Budget is <$15.- BattlePope

Monoprice Modern Retro Over Ear Headphones (#16150)
Will Brainwavz HM5 pads fit these? Vaguely remember reading somewhere that they will they're just a bit tricky to get on initially. Any word on how these compare to the Tascam TH-02's in terms of sound quality, comfort, etc.? They're my current budget cans that I use at work but I'm not a huge...- BattlePope

Where to find replacement gimbal screws for my Jaycar Pro Monitors (Fischer FA-003/Brainwavz HM5)?
Hi all, Been looking high and low and have been unable to locate some replacement screws for the gimbals on my Jaycar Pro Monitors. They are the 3 screws that hold the plate over the gimbal. Replacing the stock gimbals with some 3d printed ones and stripped one of the screws and lost another...- BattlePope

Just ordered the Pro 80. Can anyone recommend a good DAC (and amp, if necessary) that pairs nicely with it? Budget is around $50-75. Possibly $100.- BattlePope

I think I'm going to just use my old Sony wraparound IEM's for when I travel. Thanks for the information on the Takstar's. Do you know how the Hi2050 and Pro80 stack up against some of the other headphones that I'm looking at in terms of gaming?- BattlePope

Read FAQ/guides and searched. Help narrowing down a gaming headphone with some general use as well.
Hi guys, A few days ago, I was planning on buying Plantronics GameCom 780 to use while I play computer games. Well, I did a bit of searching and learned that if I really want to get the most bang for my buck, I should buy a clip on mic and get a real pair of 'phones. So here I am. I've...- BattlePope

Mad Lust Envy's Headphone Gaming Guide: (8/18/2022: iFi GO Blu Review Added)
How would a regular set of headphones without the 7.1 surround sound/Dolby Headphone perform in game? Is there a range of positional awareness on headphones without 7.1 surround? Or is positional awareness pretty universal across the board without 7.1? This is for computers too. I know this is a...- BattlePope
