Now there are FW updates? Definitely feeling the lack of Mac OS X love here...
Used Win 10 laptops on Ebay for under $50. Cheaper in the long run than shipping to Audeze for updates.

I'm glad someone else is getting the same enjoyment that I am on a console! I love the RPG preset the most myself, though. If you don't need the mic option and volume is too low, someone else mentioned that using an amp helped with the volume.I have Nier: Automata on my PS4 and I'm eager to try that soon. Been putting a lot of time into Spider-Man lately, though, and using the Ballistics preset with the game's audio set to Maximum, it's quite wonderful!
Are there really? Man.. I might need to check out eBay just so I can have a cheap, throwaway firmware update machine. LolUsed Win 10 laptops on Ebay for under $50. Cheaper in the long run than shipping to Audeze for updates.
Was there a general announcement about RMA'ing the pre-revision 'phones from @Audeze that I missed? (I admit to completely abandoning that other horrendous thread so if it was posted there I missed it). Or were you simply proactive and initiated it with them directly yourself? I was #35 and have a pair of the pre-revision 'phones and have been waiting for an official response or email from Audeze on here outlining the process for swapping my cans for the newer revision.Sent my Mobius in for the pre-revision RMA, and already missing it. The good news is I’ll have my new unit in a week or two

Listen to Eminem's Killshot with the warm preset, the bass in track comes to life compared to my HD700.
Great News about the mic fix working! I tried it with voip within games and in Discord and everyone could hear me crystal clear.

We have mentioned this before, the underlying driver/SDK required for firmware updates is not supported for Mac. We are working on and testing the app for Mac, the app will have all functionalities except for the ability to upgrade firmware.
For firmware upgrades PC is the only option, but if that is not an option you, please contact support and ship it to us for a upgrade. I advice waiting a bit more if you are going that route as we are in the process of adding a few more much requested features (including, but not limited to turning off head tracking but keeping the emulation on in 3D mode).
Do you use with USB or 3.5mm?
I can confirm the mic is much better with the f/w fix under Windows 10 and with the Windows 10 October update.

There are no drop outs with the mic, it picks up voice at an acceptable volume now without cutting off.
I do think that it can benefit from having a small windsock to reduce plosive and breath sounds, but either position the mic away so that it's reduced or buy a cheap windsock. I have some arriving from Ebay (China) that should be a reasonable fit and cost less than a couple of quid delivered.
Additionally the new Warm preset is amazing. I've been playing Crysis 3 with it and the bass is definitely present. The Audeze software doesn't show the Warm preset yet but select it from the scroll wheel until the software gets updated too.
I don't believe they have yet. I'm in the pre-revision boat too and I'm just patiently waiting for them to contact me.

Well, that didn't take long. Just received the email from Audeze with the RMA info. Thanks @Audeze
