I understand that with closed you get really good bass! which is great in games like call of duty etc when someone throw a grenade right at you! and you feel the explosion!.   With open headphones I hear people mention about better soundstage, so I am guessing this makes the environments you...

Title says it all.   I'm using a laptop, so I need an external USB Sound Card.    If you have other recommendations, please do state it here. I would highly appreciate it. Thanks!

Hello, thank you for taking the time to read my thread!   I am currently looking for a nice headset for gaming and music purposes (would also consider headphones with clip on mic). I would mostly be playing MMOs and some FPS games like BF3 on the PC and the music I listen to is mostly from...

I recently got  the PC360's to use with consoles for games and my mac for skype/music/movies etc.  On consoles I am using a TurtleBeach DSS2 mixamp and get really great sound from the headphones.  On my mac however I do not have any external soundcard/amp and the audio coming out is not as...

Hi Head-fiers,   I've finally decided to make an account here since I've gotten so much information from here already by just lurking threads.    I'm kind of new to proper audio equipment and before this I was the type of guy that would even believe in surround sound headsets, I've...

I have the AD-700 that I use for music, but with the mixamp on shooters they have very screeching highs that literally hurt my ears. Directional audio and such is fine with Dolby Headphone, but I need something with a little more bass. I actually prefer a headset with a microphone. I'd rather...

http://www.sennheiser.com/sennheiser/home_en.nsf/root/professional_headphones-headsets_professional-headsets   These headsets are supposed to be professional broadcaster quality. Does anyone have any experience with them? I have listened to a shout cast where the commentators were using...

Hi,    I currently have the Sennheiser PC360s and my sound card is a Xonar Phoebus. My PC360s are good for games but I have also heard that the Q701s are good because of the larger sound stage. I have found very few comparisons between the two so my question is whether or not I will notice a...

Long time lurker, just registered to ask all you very informed people. Long story short I want to get some really nice gaming headphones for my consoles and PC. And so the GF doesn't yell at me when I'm playing and she is trying to sleep :) Long story short. I first started looking at astro...

First off, I'm driving these and any potential future headphones with my Asus Essence STX soundcard primarily and I was wondering what headphones you guys think can compete or completely blow these out of the water if the max price would be 500$/320€?   Ignore the fact that these I've got is...

So let me start out by saying I've been lurking the forums for the past few days reading as much as I can on reviews about different headphones and ones that are better for gaming and ones that aren't. Even read all of Mad Lust Envy's reviews. I finally decided to register on the forums and ask...

Hello everyone.   I've been doing alot of research on the headsets and headphones + clip on but I still can't figure what to get. My spending limit is 180 or so. I've looked at the PC360s even tho there a bit out of my range and my dad who is a computer guy has shown me TB's z26a or...

Hey everyone!   I know there is similar post going on recently but I'm looking for headphones with mic (headset).   It's for gaming + music. It doesn't really matter if it's bulky, as long as i can wear them for long periods of time. I wear glasses so hope it doesn't bother too much too...

I was wondering, if I were to buy a 5.1 surround sound headphone, what would be the best to pick up? My needs are mostly music/movies, but I do play the occational FPS, so that is why I am interested in 5.1   Currently I have Gamecom 777 which have been alright, only issue being that the...

Hi there,   I'm in the market for a decent headphone AMP/DAC and headset, i'm a newb when it comes to audio, I only just found out about headphone AMP/DACs.   I'm a gamer, music is secondary, so i've narrowed my results to Sennheiser PC360 or AKG Q701.   My setup is a Sager NP9150...

So, I've got a New MacBook Pro with Retina Display, Sennheiser PC 360's and a love for PC gaming. So, I'll boot into Windows 7 for my fix and I'll chat with the team I'm playing with using my Sennheiser's. The sound quality in the builtin mike is great and the overall quality is satisfying, if a...

Hello, My old headphones just broke so I am in need of new ones. The thing is that the headphones/set I am going to buy must have good positional audio since it is most used for gaming and I don't really use them for anything else. My budget is something like 150euros but I can extend it...

Hi. First post here.   Thought this would be the best place to start inquiring.   My gear:   Xonar DG Sony MDR-XD100 Zalman ZM1 Clip-on mic   Yeah, budget stuff. I've been about to improve my audio for a long time for now. Just didn't know where to start. I wasn't exactly...

First off, ever since I started researching and this forum has helped me in an imaginable ways! so for everyone here, Thank you so much. so to start off with, the first headset I got was the A40s and my aim was gaming and music and that was it. But with time I wanted something with more bass...

Hey everyone, about a week ago I noticed the microphone of my PC 360s had stopped working. The mic has a rotational mute feature where it mutes when rotated upwards, I'm pretty confident that's what stopped working. So I opened up the headset to expose the pcb and the wiring, here's what it...

So, my Sennheiser PC 360 just arrived (yeah!) and i'm using it with the Aus Xonar DX soundcard. The Sound is great, but if i add a Headphone AMP/DAC like the FiiO e10 or 17, will the sound improve a lot? Thanks!

Hello all,   I know, I know. The first thing people will say is to get a good pair of headphones and a zalman mic, or something similar. Ideally, this will give me the best audio, but I do not like the mic quality or voice sound when doing it this way.   I'm looking for a headset that...

Hey all,   I'm fairly new to the audiophile world. I've been rocking a crappy headset for gaming (Razer Carcharias...man these things are horrid haha) and some old Sony MDR-V600's for music, and I just think it's time for an upgrade. I have a Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty...

hi,   i have a creative soundblaster X-fi fitality titanium,  then i have a headset for music: ATH-M50 and one for gaming: sennheiser pc 360   my question is if a FIIO e6 would make a big difrence in the sound of this setup, and if its wurth buying? thanks in advance for your help...
