    What would you say the best virtual surround software is?

    The best virtual surround I've ever heard remains the Sennheiser GSX 1000 but I have long since moved on to greener pastures when it comes to my computers audio. What would you say is the best virtual surround software currently available for Windows? For gaming rather than music. I know some...

    Gaming DAC for PC - surround or no surround?

    Hi! I recently became something of a low-key hi-fi enthusiast (ie. went from Spotify to Tidal/FLAC and from smartphone to smartphone+USB dongle to Hiby R6 2020). On the PC I've only used keyboard manufacturer headsets for ten years (don't judge). Having discovered that I've been seriously...

    Recommendation for AMP (and DAC?) for Beyer DT990 Pro (250 ohm) and DT770 (80 ohm) ?

    I've had beyerdynamic DT770 Pro (80 ohm) for a long time but I wanted to try an open-back so I also purchased DT990 Pro (250 ohm). I really like the DT990 and I think I might prefer open-back, but the high-pitch treble is a bit noticeable. Still, I got a great deal on the limited edition...

    Looking for over-the-ear headphones for synthwave, retrowave etc. +gaming

    A bit of background first. I have the Sennheiser HD 518 and the HD 650. I bought the HD 650 for a more high end sound — which i got — but not so much for the music I most listen to. Being a reference headset, the 650 doesn't really suit the sound of synthwave/retrowave/electronic music. My 518s...

    Going audiophile!

    Hey guys. So I've wanting to go audiophile for my ps4/pc gaming, and for what I've been researching I really liked the beyerdynamic dt770 pro 250ohms, but from what I've read/saw, the 250 ohms for the ps4 aren't that good since the ps4 can't provide enough power for the headphones to be heard...
