I had mine modded really nicely by the guys at electronic music services if you're in the UK. looked like a factory finish.

I wish I didn't update the firmware. I now have a noise like the sea in both earcups and it's so loud I could probably record it. They are unusable like this. Can I roll the firmware back? Seems ok on Bluetooth. Issue is with the pd5. Restarted PS5 and it's gone, weird. Ok it seems to come...

I noticed when using Penrose wired into series x controller that the mic doesn't work. I was using a 3rd party stereo cable if that makes any difference.

Did I read once they are going to sell the dongles seperate? I assume it won't work in that I can't get an xbox dongle to use with my non x headphones on the xbox.

I do not play that sorry but it's fine on Destiny at least, not as pronounced but still distinguishable. Yes I'm using the PS5 3D. Funnily enough I thought it was terrible at first but that turned out to be the headset (Arctis 7P). Wish we could name the presets, I forget what the other 4 are...

Really enjoying the warm game preset. Don't see a need to change it.

Really like the warm preset on these. Im not using them atm as Assassin's creed valhalla has terrible audio which is amplified when using good headphones but on other games they are superb. Really glad I got them.

Not sure if mentioned but the app wouldn't recognise my headphones until I enabled calling on my phone bluetooth. I had it just set for media.

Used them on BT last night and I heard the wind whistling noise as has been reported. It's really weird. Doesn't happen when playing on ps5, just bt.

So update after having used it more. I do not get any crackling, pops dropouts when using with my PS5 which is the main use. I get occasional ones when using BT but very infrequent. I do not find them that comfortable but I just have to move the headband after an hour or so to 'reset'...

Not yet but I think you'll be able to via the android app later.

Im tinkering with it a lot but even standard they absolutely blew the 7p out the water. To the point I'm wondering if mine were faulty or they just sounded that bad.

Try this on the EQ and let me know your thoughts if you can be bothered: 0, -1, -1, -3, -3, -3, -2, -1, 0, 0

@TallPaul, are you using the default flat EQ settings on the Penrose?

I can understand the odd crackle or whatnot when bt/wireless but why would I get it when using aux? Tried two different cables (included and another) using Spotify, plugged into Creative g6. It's not particularly frequent. Very impressed with the audio quality aside from that currently, going...

All good, I'm still very happy it was despatched as quickly as it was. Thank you.

I'm sure there are more elegant methods but I understand your point. Personally I'd be thinking velcro or something else easily removable. Haven't got mine yet so don't know how I'll find them.

Mine was definitely sent tracked 48, it says it on the tracking. Edit. This is because I only ordered it on Friday 11th Re nuggets, im sure you could create something as effective for a lot less, are they not just a bit of foam wrapped in faux leather?

@TallPaul interesting about the bass, I always read talk about the bass on planars being above and beyond but perhaps it's a different meaning than just plain old 'more of it/heavier. I have Fidelio X2s I don't expect to be blown away at all but I'm hoping for a much better sound that the...

No problem at all, it was just an afterthought as I didn't realise they were actually in stock. Thank you for your quick response.

Thanks, not a big issue would just be a nice have but by no means a problem. I'm sure you can understand why I didn't bother paying for it when placing a pre-order not knowing when it will be sent.

@Oscar-HiFi Did my order #48166 manage to secure any of the current delivery or will I be waiting for the next lot? In the unlikely event it's there and being despatched today could I pay for DPD Sat on the card I bought them for?

I snuck a cheeky last minute change of heart order in about an hour ago, I wouldn't have minded paying for Saturday delivery but as I was unsure on availability I just left it as default as it would have been a faff for everyone if it was despatched next week or later because of refunds etc.

My 7P has this same issue. I don't use side tone though so I don't hear it

It's been on the news about backup at our ports for a few weeks due to people stockpiling incase of no deal brexit. I'm not sure if these are coming by air though.
