    LCD-X and XC Update

    Don't return your LCD-XC if your posts are loose. I did, got my new replacement pair today and had the same issue, but this time on my left post! It's endemic to the headset and no big deal - that's what the hex nut adjustment is for. In fact, in anticipation, I was ready, having already...

    LCD-X and XC Update

    No offense taken at all. I think you are an EQ genius and damn good artist. You are doing what you are meant to do. I've also owned several Sound Blaster cards, including the very first MS-DOS one. I just happen to be lucky enough to have the just the sound I like. Glad I got there! If I...

    LCD-X and XC Update

    Enjoy your posts and your songs . . . not an expert EQ'er like you, but I know what I like and I can adjust my ZXR EQ to get it. 'Nuff said and thanks.

    LCD-X and XC Update

    I am not near the level of most of the posters here, but what you said makes sense to me . . . though I have a nuance here I'd like to run by you all. I may be the exception to the "hardware better than software" EQ rule. I have an old Soundblaster ZXR. I've had it in multiple computers I've...

    LCD-X and XC Update

    Way To Go! No more tape, lol. I'll try and do the same thing, if needed, in the future, too.

    LCD-X and XC Update

    I see the tiny hex screws. Good to know it can be adjusted, but it'd have to be loose as a goose before I'd try it. Actually, I'd just send it back to you at Audeze and pay you to do it. These head sets are worth maintaining as long as possible!

    LCD-X and XC Update

    Will try working it up and down quickly 10 or 15 times, but I don't want to try and put oil in there or adjust the screws. Not taping my $1300 headset. Thanks for the replies.

    LCD-X and XC Update

    Is it normal for the posts on which my LCD-XC rests to slip? My left earcup stays in place, but my right ear cup usually slips down 1 or two notches lower than the left. It does this when I pick it up to put it on, take it off and I think it did it once while resting on my head as I turned. Is...

    LCD-X and XC Update

    Just got my LCD-XC today and to this 66-year-old's ears, it's the best headset I've heard and had. I'm tweaking the EQ on my trusty old Soundblaster ZXR to get it how I like it, which is more bass. Upping the sub-bass and bass sliders a little does the trick. That makes it perfect. What a...

    I actually prefer it this way, gives you more flexiblity.

    Audeze Penrose X and Penrose

    Ordered it under my wife's email, for financial reasons, lol, I'll get it when I get it, not worried or anxious. My Mobius sounds great now, I just wanted to combine my love of music with better sound definition at work as well, without cords. IMHO, it's a good deal. I can't afford $1,000...

    Audeze Penrose X and Penrose

    I love my Mobius, I expect to love my Penrose X for what I'm going to use it for. I ordered July 15 in the US, in FL, I hope to get my shipping email soon. I am going to use Penrose for my Work At Home business on my PC, then, when it's quitting time, I'm logging out and Rockin' out!

    That sounds real good, can't wait to buy another mic for my Mobius!

    Audeze Penrose X and Penrose

    I saw it on Audeze's website for that, thought it was too high, too. It's sold out now. The Cipher mic, which they say the Penrose is kinda based on, is listed for $99. I hope it's $15, too, lol, I want to buy one, so I can have one for my Mobius and one for my Penrose!

    Audeze Penrose X and Penrose

    I prefer the blue color (my Mobius is blue), but to make sure to be fully compatible with all things Windows, that's why I'm getting the green - and it's not easy for me to be green . .

    Audeze Mobius review / impressions

    I don't like sidetone, but the Mobius mic has other issues, low volume, I get a hum sometimes. Can't wait for Penrose mic

    Audeze Mobius review / impressions

    The Mobius mic is about it's only weak point - until we can buy the Penrose mic for it!

    Audeze Mobius review / impressions

    It's not "real" 7.1, nothing in any headset really is. But Mobius is about the best fake 7.1 I've ever heard in a headset.

    Good price on the Orbit and it does have a longer cord, forgot about that

    Audeze Mobius review / impressions

    Mobius is pretty much identical to Orbit S (except for Bluetooth) and Orbit (except for Bluetooth, headtracking and 3D). So, why buy stuff you aren't going to use unless it's so much less expensive that it doesn't matter? But, does Mmx300 have planar magnetic drivers? If not, that trumps...

    Audeze Mobius review / impressions

    Not the expert here, but I don't think that can work. Mobius relies on USB cable for it's audio, plus it's Bluetooth is different (perhaps better) and it has to use what's left to generate it's 3D sound. No room for 2.4. KMann can explain that better, but it's a layman's explanation.

    Audeze Penrose X and Penrose

    I agree. Can't wait to get my Penrose. I will use it differently than my Mobius, which is my favorite headset.

    Mobius Bluetooth supports hi-res. I love my Mobius! According to KMann, Penrose does not

    Audeze Penrose X and Penrose

    Kmann said Penrose does not have hi res sound through it's 2.4 USB Transmitter, But if your DAC supports hi res, then Penrose will support it through 3.5 connector

    Audeze Penrose X and Penrose

    I'm 63 years old. I've built ham radios in the 1970s and have built computers since the 1980s. Everything's a gimmick - unless it the "gimmick" does what you want it do. Mobius is a great headset, but Penrose is better if you are only gaming on consoles or if you do not want 7.1 emulation and...
