What do you mean, you need ring cups to attach these? Do I have to buy these? I just ordered the suede ones to try out before I decide to return these or notI have them but haven't tried them yet. They come with double sided tape, meaning they are single use only. I am waiting for my grey ring cups to get here before trying. Audeze is trying to get all you jerks your Penrose and Penrose X first, so I am still waiting for my ear cups to be sent out.
Interesting. I wonder why they haven’t updated their website, which still states the Penrose X is in stock, but the Penrose is back-ordered until January.
just got my X's. have them hooked to BT for now; wow these get LOUD, i'm at 75% volume on my iphone; not sure i can go much louder with the flat eqbut absolutely zero distortion, sound great. went into music app settings and added the bass boost eq setting, volume went down slightly, but could just turn overall volume back up. @Audeze any chance the iOS HQ app will have penrose functionality? i'd really like to tune these on my iphone
I'll be testing these out fully later tonight. but been on my head for about 30 minutes. clamp is a bit tighter than other headsets, but it doesn't seem to be bothersome, just helps with the passive isolation. i may add nuggets to the top, undecided yet; need to wear them for longer.
OK, looks don't matter as I only use them to game. I just want comfort. I wonder how hard these will be to put on.
I'm really having fun in seeing the creative ways to stretch these guys.
I have Xbox set to Energy Saver and it doesn't seem to help at all. I've tried everything, except plugging my SX into the wall (because it'd be a hassle and not sure it'd even help), so I'm really bummed out about this. Even though I'm really liking the headset, I'll probably have to return it. My Astros don't pop at all if I connect the optical from base station to the TV, but man, the Penrose feel and sound so much better.
LOL, I put them on my paper shredder and around the base of a pedestal end tableI'm really having fun in seeing the creative ways to stretch these guys.
How did you go after the stretching?
No clamp issues here, perfect for me.

Pillow, Mattress, Shredder, Pedestal... anything is valid here. lol
I'm about to do that, and see what they say, maybe return them.
Try adjusting a bit in front of the mirror and see how it goes. sometimes when I have that feeling of one side is right and the other is not is because of the headphones being on a weird angle that I couldn't notice, but the mirror never lie.
