Yea, for music I'll be going with the SB Omni and Vali combo. I think that should take care of my needs, as well as, future proof me for awhile. Well, at lease until I get the upgrade itis I'm sure I'll get at some point.

Awesome, I'll go with the E11 for now. Have you ever tried the K712 or K702 annies with your E11? I'm just asking because I plan on upgrading to one of those in the future and I'm trying to keep amp in mind. Thanks again Still. You have been awesome since I joined the forums. I have learned so...

I believe the E12 was recommended, by you I believe, because I needed a solution that was portable and could be used with the Mixamp 5.8 and with a desktop setup on pc. Please correct me if I'm wrong. I'll message you the quote if you don't mind.

Just looked in the sale forum and there is a E12DIY, is this worth the price increase over the E12 Mont Blanc? Which E12 is better (didn't realize there was a second version until now). There is also a sale on a Fiio E11 for $35. Decisions, decisions. Please help.

I'm super excited. I finally pulled the trigger on a Mixamp 5.8 on eBay. Couldn't duplicate the $40, but I got one for $50 so I'm happy. Now I'm wondering what else I need, including a mic solution, to make this work with my Q701s, X-Box One and PS4 (in the future). I know I need the X-Box One...

Sorry if I missed this in my time away from the thread, but has anyone tried the Astro mixamp M80 with another headset other than the A40s? Is it even possible? Again, sorry if this has been asked.

Okay guys, I have an update and a question. I have started building my setup piece by piece. I got my new X-Box One and PS4. Due to some issues at the store, I caved and got a set of Playstation Gold Wireless headphones (got them for half price) to get me by because I only had the stock set. I...

I see the AntLion ModMic 4.0 is on sale right now. Is it worth investing in to pair with my Q701? Anybody have experience with this combo?

  That sounds SOOOOOO AWESOME!!! I've been completely stuck on the new X-Box One bundles/editions they announced. I want to wait for the 1tb Black console, as it matches the rest of my equipment, but I think I'll just get the 500gb version and add an external drive to compensate for space...

Man I'm trying so hard to fight the urge to pick up these SoundMAGIC HP200s for 160. I haven't even taken my Q701s out the box and I'm already looking at new headphones I want to try. Dang you head-fi. Lol   Is there any reason to choose the HP200s over my Q701s?

      Thanks guys. First set of real cans, just want them to last me a while.

  Thank you. I really like the white now that I look at them, just super nervous they will get really dirty. I always love white products until they turn that dingy dish cloth white. Lol How have you managed to keep them so clean, besides not taking them out the house (my plan as well)?

Awesome. I'm good with the 701s. I guess this is the dreaded upgrade fever I keep hearing about. Lol It would cost me double to upgrade. Now if I had only gotten the right color. I got white, wanted black because I feel the white will get extremely dirty really fast and be even harder to clean...

I just got my Q701s in the mail (but in the wrong color ), is it worth looking into the K712s if I can get them for a decent price? Or should I just stick with the Q701s for now? Decisions, decisions.

      Man you guys just got me so pumped for the upcoming gaming season. Also made me super excited that some of you have chosen the X-Box One over the PS4 (I need some new XBOne friends). I'm one of the lame kids that gets both consoles every gen to play with everyone and mainly end up on...

Have any of you ever heard of Allen and Heath headphones? I had a buddy that works at Guitar Center suggest them to me when I told him I was looking to purchase the Q701s. He really seems to stand by them and he owns a pair of Xones (I think that's what they are called). I didn't see them in the...

  Touche'.

Honestly, I was thinking the same thing, but they make them sound so awesome. Lol What exactly makes you believe the TAC may be a Mixamp killer? I didn't find much info on the TAC (I was looking more for the Elite 800s) and the info I did, I didn't see anything that really jumped out at me...

I've been reading on the Elite 800s all day. Looks like they will only offer support for the PS3/PS4. They are releasing a headset for the XBOne, but it appears to be a lower model the Stealth 500x, which is similar to the Stealth 400 they will make for Playstation. I really like the potential...

  Is there a big difference between the Astro 5.8 and the Mixamp Pro or is the 5.8 just a firmware number? Sorry if this is a newb question.   [Edited] On second look, I see that the 5.8 is a wireless solution compared to the Mixamp Pro being all wired. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Is that...

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.   This thread and guide are AWESOME btw. Thank you so much MLE and everyone that continues to contribute.

I'm so sorry if this has already been covered in the thread. I'm normally the guy that sits and reads EVERY page before asking my question, but I couldn't make it through all 1612 pages. I went through a few, but didn't find my answer. Here's my situation. I want the K712 Pro and the mixamp 2013...
