Quote: Hmmm, I would prefer it to be a bit bassier. Also talking about amps, I'm a bit conflicted. The e7 seems to be great for use with my laptop (Macbook Pro) for music but I also intend to use these headphones for gaming; because of this I'm thinking about the Recon3D as it's good for...

Quote: That sucks, might have to go addicted audio then. Should I wait for the 80 ohms to come back in stock or would the 250 ohms be ok? Don't know a whole lot about the difference just the the higher the ohms the 'crisper' (?) the sound but they won't be as loud… not too sure on this lol.

Quote: Which seller, Music123? and how long did it take? Mates have said it takes around a month o_O.

Quote: Was just looking there, $60 more than amazon though  and they're sold out of the 80 ohm version :(. 250 would be very weak without an amp wouldn't it?

Damn lol

Quote: Wouldn't happen to know where to get dt770's in Aus that aren't ridiculously priced?

anyone?

Anyone know somewhere to get a pair of dt-770's from in Aus? I'm up in the NT and looking at getting a pair, however, what I have found has been ridiculously overpriced ($300 when it's $190 on Amazon) and would like to get them from somewhere in Australia so I don't have to wait a month to get...

Thanks for the help, I'll definitely check out the FA-011's, do you think they will be better than the dt-770's? I'm also looking for an amp now; I'm thinking the Recon3D for use with my Mac and Xbox but I'm not sure how useful it is with music, any experience with this or can you recommend...

Quote: Someone has suggested the Recon3D USB as a suitable gaming amp as I can use it on my Mac, PC and Xbox. Do you happen to know if it's any good for music? Just quickly checked out the Grado's, do you think they're better than the DT-770's?

Quote: I think I'll go the Recon3D if you think that is a good option as I'd like to be able to use it with my Mac as well as Xbox. So with just the Recon3D and the DT770's I'll be able to get full surround sound which will help with positioning in game? Is the Recon3D also decent for...

Quote: You don't think the surround sound will help with rear and vertical positioning? In either case what is a good amp to use with my Macbook Pro? e7? e9? Will I even need one with these phones?

So I think I'm going to end up buying the dt-770 as my first nice set of headphones :). I'm going to be using them to listen to hip-hop, rap, rock, metal, dub-step, a heap of stuff as well as gaming. Due to the fact that they will also be used for gaming I am thinking of going with the mixamp...

Quote: It doesn't look like I do, does this make using headphones for gaming pretty much pointless?

Generally I'll be in Windows seeing as just about every game is Windows only. In either case it seems that another piece of hardware is needed? Is there anyway to check if the jack supports DDL?

Quote:   So in order to get something that will give more accurate positioning I'll need a set that supports Dolby Headphone or the like? Is specific hardware required to do this (like the mix amp)? or is software available, so I don't have to spend extra on top of my headphones? Still...

Looking at buying a set of headphones, thinking the dt770's (check out this if you'd like to help me decide:  http://www.head-fi.org/t/621613/picking-some-phones ). What I'm wondering is in order to use them in-game to determine the location of footsteps, gunshots, etc. will I need another piece...

Hey guys, looking at getting a pair of headphones for <$200. I'm looking to use them for a mix of music and gaming, with music being slightly more prioritised. I listen to a range of music, mainly whatever is in the top 10 plus a lot of rock, metal and dub-step. It's also important that there is...
