After 7 years of daily use including 3 deployments traveling all over the world, my AKG K702 65th Anni Edition are ready to be retired. What I loved about these the most is 1: Comfort and 2: Sound. These are the best gaming headphones Ive ever had. Ive attempted to replace them many times with...

For the last few years, my trusty Monster Turbines have been (BY FAR) my favorite IEM. So far, theres nothing wrong with them, but I always have that itch to upgrade. Ive tried a bunch of different IEMs over the years but I always reach for the Monster Turbines. To me, they are fun to listen...

What do you guys think is the best cable material for increasing clarity, sound quality, and soundstage?

Today, I finally got my hands on a Beyerdynamic Headzone Game system. Im a console gamer and I love using simulated surround sound. Ive used nearly every type of surround equipment out there for consoles. From the Turtle Beach DSS, Mix Amp, Astro A50, AVR with Dolby Headphone, the list goes on...

Besides the current stuff like Mixamp, DSS1, DSS2, X7 do you guys know of any other options for us console folk?   Ive been waiting to see something new enter this niche market for a while now. Hopefully something with a stronger amp, adjustable parameters, maybe HDMI audio input?! One can...

So I have Marantz SR6005 home receiver that I use for gaming. It has Dolby Headphone built into the headphone jack.   One day, I came across some tutorials on adding a digital audio output on old game consoles like the Gamecube and original Xbox. The process seemed pretty simple, just...

When I first discovered this thing, I was really excited. A sort of "super Mix Amp" I can use with my PS4. Although I didnt need the speaker amp portion and would solely be used with my PS4 and headset, I almost felt the price was worth it.....almost..   Then I found out that the X7 does not...

Anyone playing this? Im on PS4.   So far, footsteps are non-existent in this game. My footsteps are loud, but you cant hear an enemy unless hes 1ft behind you.

Has anyone ever done an actual SQ test between all of these add-on mics? If so I would love to hear/read it.   So far, I only have the Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro Headset mic and I love it.

Ive been wanting to try this headset for YEARS, the price has always kept me from buying. I always read mostly positive things about it, but I rarely see it mentioned and compared to others. Also, most of the reviews/threads I find are outdated.   Today was the day I finally got my hands on...

Basically, title says it all.   Just looking for a decent headphone amp that simply has an analog input and output. No digital stuff needed here. Not really wanting to spend a ton here, and Im hoping since I dont need digital stuff, they should be cheaper...I hope.   Thanks for any...

Im looking for a 15ft cable for my K702 65th Anv. Im perfectly happy with the stock cable quality, but not length. In not looking to spend hundreds of dollars either. Is there any place to get a cheap cable like this?

Just looking for some ideas here. I have this mic http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_71111_Beyerdynamic-Custom-One-Pro-Headset-Gear-Detachable-Gooseneck-Microphone.html   The boom mic detaches right before the T. I would like some ideas on how I could attach the straight boom mic to the...

My gaming setup consists of a Marantz SR6005 w/ Dolby Headphone, PS4 connected via HDMI, and Sony MDR-7520 headphones, oh and a TV. Tonight I was playing Ghosts and decided to mess around with the audio settings. I previously had the PS4 to Bitstream(Dolby). I changed it to LPCM and right...

What is the proper way to hook up a typical dual 3.5mm headset to a PS4 and be able to chat and hear game sounds at the same time?   My previous PS3 setup was perfect. I have a PC360 headset, and a Marantz HT receiver with Dolby Headphone built in. I used the Marantz headphone jack for game...

What I have here are the output power specs for my Marantz SR6005 A/V Receiver. They e-mailed me the specs today and heres what they said:   Headphone Output Spec: Frequency response: 10 Hz~100 kHz,  +1, -3 dB (mode DIRECT) Max voltage output: 1V Output impedance: 377 ohms     What...

I have high end 2ch car audio amp (Focal FP2.75) sitting around collecting dust. It has a S/N of  >100. I could easily wire a 12v power supply to run it, and make a custom cable to connect headphones to.   The real question I have is how would this compare to an actual headphone amp?   I...

I game on a PS3 and have always used external devices with DH like the TB DSS and Astro A50's. The thing is, most (if not all) of these common DH external processors can only accept DD 5.1 through optical as the max resolution.   I recently found out some AVRs include Dolby Headphone. This...
