    The impressions I read praised the sound quality but felt the max volume was way too low.

    Thank you for engaging with us. For a while a lot of the frustration was a lack of communication - this thread was just full of complaints without much in the way of responses from the company. I disengaged a while back because of this. Thank you for trying to be real with everyone about what...

    No one can put a timetable on it. Yeah more expensive gaming headsets are starting to exist, but it's rare for a wireless gaming headset to target higher than $300 besides the B&O one. If more boutique labels like B&O or Audeze keep at it and they release higher budget ones (say $700-$1000)...

    The new update is great. I really hope the pending update to the android app adds in controls for all the new functionality in this update. Especially BT/Game sound ratio mixing. It's kind of wonky to do it with the wheels, but if they enable it on the app it will be magical. I have no doubt...

    I emailed them a couple hours ago with my info and haven't heard back yet.

    My HQ app on PC doesn't see the headphones and Windows now only sees the headphones as "LAM2BT" and doesn't even play the device chime when I plug it in.

    That's the firmware it bumped me up to.

    Check the mobile app. It let me update through there.

    I did the headband wrap and while it didn't magically transform my headphones into pure ecstasy and bliss, they do at least no longer make the top of my head sore after an hour and I no longer fiddle with them while I'm playing to alleviate discomfort. For the $18 or so I spent and the five...

    That is very similar to the one I used. Mine has four buttons to clasp instead of 6. I wasn't joking when I said I really struggled to get the buttons to clasp in the post where I shared a picture with it on. I had to use a lot more force than I felt comfortable using. I didn't take the...

    I totally hear you on the trade off between spaciousness and preserving sound. That's the engineering challenge though. They are competing to develop software that overcomes the challenge as much as possible. I'm not saying I'm right or wrong, it's just my ear, but the DTS X virtualizer just...

    I'm sure I'm not the only one here who also has a full surround sound system. Not everyone who makes a judgement on one form of virtual surround sound or the other comes from having no point of reference. I'm not talking about a theater in a box or soundbar + small satellites system either. I'm...

    I also find warm or RPG good for most general content. Default is really good though so it's really up to preferences. I listened to frequency sweeps on Default and I really only noticed large spikes in volume around 8khz and 12khz. I generally use those three presets unless I'm playing...

    Regarding Atmos, I don't think so, but you get an EQ to play with to try and focus the sound how you need to. DTS doesn't give you as many configuration settings, but it sounds correct in its default state sonically. The only one you do get is the spacious option. I'm not certain, but to my ear...

    I paid for both the Atmos and DTS:X apps on Xbox Series X and I find that DTS:X creates a fuller sound and has lower latency than Atmos. Try out the two week trial of it. Just remember to click the option that sets DTS:X to spacious, it really helps the directionality for multiplayer.

    I've done some long gaming sessions with them. No ear heat. Be advised though. They pressurize pretty well on your ear. When I switched to them from my Astros I noticed I could definitely feel more air pressure inside my ear canals. It quickly normalized for me though and now I'm only aware of...

    @Audeze The one major issue I am currently noticing is a hum coming out of my mic if I plug in the cord to charge while still playing. Can this be fixed with firmware? I tested with both low power usb charging and high speed charging with a 45w charger. Different hums, but definitely...

    For those having comfort issues I recommend trying something like what I did. It totally fixed the pain I was having from the headband. I ordered a headset headband wrap from Amazon from Geekria that snaps together around the headband. I ordered the standard size but it was an absolute bear to...

    I know the earcups are not real leather so a leather care kit probably wouldn't make much sense. Are there recommended solutions for not only cleaning but preventing degradation to the earcups? I couldn't find anything on the website other than a recommendation to clean with water.
