Thank you mate! that settles it.

Dear Miketlse, Thank you so much for your reply. I've researched @JaZZ and @Music Alchemist 's posts, but unfrotunately they do not apply to my situation. They use either a foobar EQ plugin or a VST EQ plugin, that are specific to listening to music via a player from their PCs. What i need is...

Co Hi! Thanks for the reply. 100% agree with your advice for music content. For games i have some challanges as the conent is often harsh and tiresome. I found that i need to tone down the highs a bit (eq) and tone down the dynamic range (equalize loudness) so that i dont get ear fatigue...

Anybody? :-) Please help!

Thank you mate, this is brilliant news. I tried out the GSX1000 at a friend for a short time. Really liked the surround effect, but for my needs i was disappointed by the lack of customisable EQ and the lack of loudness correction. This is mostly due to some games like Battlefield 1 that have...

wow, really cool! so loudness is there, but no equalisation. Can you post a screenshot? Thanks!

Hi, A question to GSX owners... in Windows 10 sound properties, do you see the enhancements tab? How does it look for you guys in there? https://imgur.com/a/fsRMY Thanks!

Hi, Sorry if this was asked before, just combed the thread but no luck.   I'm a bit concerned about volume control with low impedance / high sensitivity headphones as the Dragonfly v1.2 was a poor match with my Sennheiser IE80 IEMs due to the volume control.   When connected to my mac...

Hehe, you make an incredibly good point :-) I'm not even sure I can properly define what treble is, but everybody seems to be saying it to describe sound, accompanied by attributes such as smooth, bright, detailed, analytical, etc. so i'm doing my best to talk the talk :) The one headphone that...

@CanadianMaestro - thank you for the advice :blush: i am trying to get a loaner for the weekend for further evaluation; the two short trips to the store were very inadequate in trying to appreciate such a complex can however seeing such a huge appreciation thread gets you wondering :blush: for...

Hi mates,   Been trying to decide on wether to get the HD800s or not, it's a bit of a torture :-) I've had two auditions but there is only so much you can listen and compare within an hour and i'm still a bit undecided.   I was wondering if you could give me some info related to how these...

Thanks a million mate u rocked it! It was option nr. 3 - dumb user :-)   Triple checked and I had Output to Headphones set to All Audio instead of Chat Audio (somehow during setup my mind set it to All Audio despite the Astro instructions).   Now yes i can feel a difference !!! in CoD:AW...

I have no more clue what to try... :-/   I've simplified the setup as such: Video -> PS4 directly connected to my monitor via HDMI Audio -> PS4 connected via optical and USB to the astro mix amp that drives the HD700 via headphone out   I've rechecked all the audio settings on the console...

Thanks for the help mates! I'll restart this afternoon with a clear mind and double check all my settings. Any place in COD:AW where i could reliably check audio queues? I was using the zombies chase you mode however that is a bit too dynamic for accurate tests :)

I've finally got my gear together... Astro Mixamp PRO and IfI Micro iDSD as amp.. I've been testing them with my PS4.   I've configured everything by the book, and i think the PS4 is correctly outputting DD Live 5.1 to the Mixamp, but I can't say I can tell much of a difference. I've been...

I've finally got my gear together... Astro Mixamp PRO, IfI Micro iDSD and a pair of HD700.. I've been testing them with my PS4 after letting the HD700 for 30 hour burn it.   I've configured everything by the book, and i think the PS4 is correctly outputting DD Live 5.1 to the Mixamp, but I...

thanks for the info! my mixamp is about to arrive; will see how the mixamp, ifi micro dsd and hd800 like to sing together in CoD :-)

What port do you use to connect from the Mixamp to the amp? Is the "stream out" port the one to use? Does it function like a "line out"?   Do you have two volume controls active at the same time? The astro volume and the amp volume? If so, where do you set your astro volume for best quality...

Hi,   Anyone had success in using the HD800 with a Sony PS4 for console / gaming with virtual surround sound? What kind of setup do you use for that?   Thanks!

Hi Guys,   Just went trough the review and thread posts, but i still can't figure out what the SPDIF OUT can be used for?   Is it possible for example to let the X7 process dolby 5.1 into virtual headphone surround than pass that further digitally trough SPDIF OUT to a DAC + AMP of my choice...

Thanks guyz, will pm him Besides this, any surround sound processor that could maybe output the digital processed signal?

cool! and use it how? daisy chain it like this:   PS4 -> SB X7 -> Matrix Mini PRO DAC -> Matrix HPA-3B AMP ?   Would virtual surround work?   Thanks!

Hi guys!     I've been reading this thread for two days already and I think I will faint if i read another post :-) I need a bit of help with building a system around my PS4 and a future HD800.   What is the current best solution to get virtual surround out of the PS4 and feed something...

Hi,   Need a bit of help after trying to apply the above.   My normal listening levels are between 55 - 70db (a-weighted) measured with a micw i436 calibrated microphone set between the ear and earphone.   My experience with the IFI Micro DSD and the HD650 (300ohm) is that i can only get...
