Cool. Thanks, MLE. I'll be ordering the CAL! in the next day or so. 

Hey guys,    I've got a $60 store credit to Best Buy, and currently the SLYR is $61.99 and the CAL! is $68.99. I am trying to decide between these two headphones. I doubt I'll ever use the microphone on the SLYR, so sound is really the only thing relevant when making my decision. When I...

I am almost certainly purchasing both the Polk Audio RTi A1 speakers and the Audio Technica W1000X for my computer audio setup. I will be using my computer for gaming and music. Other than the better amp in the Xonar STX, does it have any benefits over the Titanium HD? If not, I am wanting to...

I can't remember if I have asked this before, but I am looking to purchase one of two headphones to pair with an amp and the Titanium HD. In this very specific instance, price is not object. I am trying to decide between Audio Technica W1000X and Sennheiser HD700. Any opinions? They will be for...

Quote: I totally want my games on the SSD, though. Is this foolish? For example, I want to have Skyrim on the SSD for all sorts of loading reasons.

Quote: Is that true? I've heard little about that. I haven't been planning on any standard HDD. I like the idea of all SSDs. I got two 520 series for $115 each!

Quote: Can I just say that I am stoked? I am building a killer computer and have been planning to do so for a while and therefor avoided completing my favorite games so I wouldn't be simply replaying them. This will be fun.

Does anyone here have experience with Oblivion or Fallout 3 with the Titanium HD card? I have been told it is capable of the most impressive sound queues such as near perfect height, distance, and angle. Is this true and is it convincing? I want to disappear into the Capital Wasteland and...

Thanks for the advice. I'm sure I'll have more questions later, but I will be buying the Titanium HD for now. 

I am finally purchasing parts to build my computer, and now it is time to pick a sound card. A while back I tried to follow the material presented to me by NamelessPFG, but a lot of it went over my head. If I list my current computer parts and choice of games, would someone suggest knowledgeably...

I'm thinking of pairing the W1000X with a NuForce Icon HDP. Any thoughts?

Here's a question: If I am looking for a desktop speaker setup to place at most an inch away from the wall, should I even be considering these? I am currently looking at the AudioEngine P4 for the front port and the N22, and I can get them at a great price. Does anyone know how the P4 & N22...

Quote: lmao, I could have sworn you were going to use this comparison for praise of the DF. You'll see it all on these here forums

Quote: lmao... so whats so negative? and I am actually asking to set price aside and compare. at the same price which would you pick from the HD600, HD650, HD700

Quote: I'm thinking about getting the GTX680! It looks sick! Though my main game will be games like Skyrim with everything I can throw at it.

Quote: Well, I always forget to mention I am looking for immersive gameplay and not competitive. I also listen to plenty of music. I know these headphones are hugely different. I am considering them as stable mates. I heard them both today in a fairly noisy shop. I liked both. The W1000X...

Hypothetically, are they good headphones at $250? lol   and how do they compare to the Q701?

How might the HD700s perform for gaming and movies?

Anybody have any ideas about how the HD700 performs for gaming? I have an incredible opportunity to get these at a fantastic price. The other pair that I've come across a great deal for is the W1000X. If anyone has any clue as to how these might game, let me know. Thanks!

Has anyone by chance tried the DF with the AKG Q701?

Why am I enjoying the KSC75 soo much? I'm returning my K550 and A900X. Until I find headphones that blow me away, I'll use these wickedly impressive little things.    EDIT: I know what it is I'm loving about them: Fantastic separation and a surprising soundstage. Does anyone else get that? I...

chicolom, have you by any chance compared the Q701 to the K550. I am currently in possession of the K550, but I feel like something is missing. 

Hey MickeyVee, How do you like the Etymotic HF3s? I'm considering a pair.   Thanks

Quote:   Thanks for your input. I have been curious about how the Q701's handle completely uncompetitive gameplay. The only competing I'll be doing is StarCraft which doesn't really benefit from directional queues. Also, how do you like the Etymotic HF3s? I'm considering getting a pair...
