I imagine they sounded pretty good, because the reviewer himself was super amped. I don't actually know what that means (maybe the cap was necessary for the super amping), but it sounds like an audio revolution. The headphones are 101 decibel SPL, which means 101 decibel split. Amazing.

The PC37X has just arrived. It's not what I expected - after a bit of limited testing, the bass is much more present than I was expecting. I don't know if these will be as good for soundwhoring as I'd hoped, I need to test (a lot) more. Very comfortable, as I expected. The X2 sound like the...

:) Tidal isn't the important bit, it just happens to work with UAPP. Anything that lets you get the files to the dragonfly, without first being up-sampled etc. No :) For those that still have them though, I think the DF does a decent portable job.

But you received your SR009 as a gift :astonished: I think my HD650s sound decent with Tidal, UAPP, and a DFB. Works for when not wanting to take a full amp with you, but sadly I only have a trial of Tidal.

You've missed the bit where you say which headphones you prefer :) Unfortunately the Eikons I tried were powered by a tube amp, which wasn't for me. The Elears were good, and the Utopia's were excellent - not that I'd ever consider paying that much for headphones. I tried the SR-009, but...

The price does indeed stand out. Which headphones do you prefer to those 4?

What do you mean, they're not familiar? You know what Focals are. Do you just mean you haven't tried them? Yeah I had plenty of time with the Utopias at CanJam, they were very nice. A little pricey though.

Price shmice. If you can afford a Hugo, you can afford the headphones :) Have you tried anything from Focal or ZMF?

So have you tried many alternatives, likes Planars?

What were you using to drive the HD600? Maybe you should get some planars?

What does 'powerful headphone' mean? Surely it can't be balanced with nothing recessed (ie, flat) and also have extra bass or be powerful. Does it have a slightly raised mid bass?

No, thank you for starting 3 identical threads, it wasn't enough seeing just two of them.

That's a hell of a spend on gaming :) Not much yet, but no doubt more will. It works well with lower end Stax too - at least, that's all I've heard it with.

It is. Well that depends on what you want it for. It's amazing at Dolby Atmos surround sound. Are you wanting it for gaming? Presumably there are better options for music.

Fantastic, thank you, much appreciated. Agreed. Prices are subject to change anyway, so if the numbers separate from price, people can later see what's available and choose. Shame the AKG aren't available with a mic. The Audio-Technica ADG1X is, I wonder how that compares.

Is this a joke?

Perfect, you're just whom I've been looking for :) Following the ratings from the first page, how would you rate the K702 65th and the PC37X: Fun: Competitive: Comfort: Thanks :)

I've had the same question, save the HD600 bit. The HD600 aren't what you want for competitive gaming. Have you read the first post in the thread? And do you need a mic attached? Without a mic, AKGs are good. I'd go for the 712 Pro over the 702. From this thread, the AD700 are clearly a good...

I had thought a Realiser would be quite nice in Rainbow 6 :)

Which ones are 'these', the HD598 or PC37x?

Thanks. I searched for the answer and found that people said the Game One is much better than the older PC360 too. There's no way I won't like them. I just won't have the chance to compare them to other cans, so I like to get it right first time. The prices have come down - I'll need an extra...

Thanks. Much better at everything, or was that comment referring to music? I really don't want to have the PC37X as a low cost option while saving up, if there's something better I'd rather go for that now. I don't want it for music, I already have an NFB-11 and HD650 for that (in a different...

Any idea on the difference between these and the Game One?

Thank you. So is there no point if streaming from Spotify?

I've got a Huawei P9, DFB 1.5, and Senn HD650. It works out of the box (with otg cable), but isn't really any better than straight from the phone's headphone jack. Do I need an app like usb audio player pro to get the most out of the DFB, or is that app only needed if output via usb isn't...
