    How are the A900X?   What's their sound signature? What types of music are they best for? How are their positional accuracy+soundstage? Do they need amping? How is the build quality?

    Quote:     9/10 isn't amazing? So what would you call 10/10?   I think you'd end up owing me for reading a 20 page review you wrote.   I hate whenever I see this. People misusing game scores.   All I see is 8 being just "meh", 9 being just "good", and it just jumps right...

    Quote:       How is 9/10 fair?   9 is like saying it's amazing. Your score completely contradicts your post.   For me a horrible story+ending+bad dialogue would be -2 or -3 points down right off the bat. And another -1 because most of the characters were annoying.  ...

    Quote:     I can see how it can be difficult at first, but once you get more ammo bags, better guns, and more health the game becomes pretty easy.   Quote:   The game doesn't really require stealth. When I played it I just ran and gunned it. If you get surrounded you...

    Are these Real Beats pros?

    Instead of making an 8 second video of a picture, why not just post the picture itself here?

    How are the Sony MDR 1R?             Quote: Yeah, my Fuze is rockbox'd, but like I said, it stopped working from one ear and the original Fuze is discontinued.

    All new gear?

    Quote:       I should have been more specific on that.     For the headphones under or around $250. If I go for the clip+/zip it would be around $30-60. Amp under or around $100? I know next to nothing on amps.

    Quote: The biggest turn off about the X1's for me was that in some reviews it mentioned the jack breaking easily.   Also, the price tag of $350, It's $100 over what I'd like to spend.   Since I need to get a new music player since the jack on my Fuze won't work properly. And...

    Quote:   How true.   I've been searching for my first pair of headphones for over a month and can't make up my mind.   I set my mind on some, then as I keep reading  reviews, I always find something that turns me off. It's always either price tag, poor build quality, too much...

    AD900X, A900X, DT 770, or...?     Do the A900X have good sound stage and positional cues? What about build quality? I've read that good build quality isn't a forte of open headphones such as the AD700/AD900/X     I want both immersive and competitive game play.       I...

    Quote: How about the DT 770?   I've heard they're great all a round.   Are the 80 ohms the ones to get? Will a Clip +/Zip be able to drive them?   If an amp is needed, which ones is recommended?   Which type of music works best with them?   Is the bass loose or tight...

    Quote: I was also considering the DT 880 before.   But would a Sansa Fuze be able to drive them?   I've read that an amp would be needed.       Also, according to Mad Lust Envy's gaming headphone guide, they have trouble picking up things behind them? Is that just an...

    Quote:   I've heard people say that the AD900/X are just a slight step up from the AD700/X, and that the higher price is not worth it. Can you confirm/deny this claim?     There comes the decision of trading sound for durability.   Is there any good mix?
