The Switch doesn't have Bluetooth. You can connect to it with the dongle, or use the Aux cable.




We don't comment on future possibilities. Just know the gaming market is relatively new for us, and we're invested.

I am a bit confused. The Switch has a "Add Bluetooth Audio Device" option. When I press Add Device it says "Make sure the Bluetooth device you would like to use is discoverable"

Sorry it's been awhile since I've used the Switch.

Pairing through Bluetooth is double pressing the power button until it says pairing. Make sure you're on the Bluetooth input on the Penrose.

Pairing through the 2.4ghz dongle, long press the multi-function button until it says pairing..

Awesome, this was really unintuitive but it worked. For anyone else interested, I even struggled starting the pairing with the double tap of the power button ,but I just had to do it quite slowly.

Thank you for the help

It's an idea that has been thought up before, but placing all the electronics on the headband can lead to hotspotting and weight issues. Still, it's an idea worth reconsidering. I'll pass the idea along.

Something to realize is that planarmagnetic design is not as simple as dynamic driver design, and some considerations need to be taken. What works there, may not work for us.

I wouldn’t mind a premium wireless headset in LCD-GX or LCD-2 closed back style, if you can incorporate the electronics eg. into the headband in a sensible way.

I just got my replacement in today. I am not sure if they actually improved the dongle or headset or I got lucky, but the range is definitely much better then my previous one.

YES! Bluetooth pairing is a pain on the Penrose. The instructions I first read were telling me to press the wrong button. Then when I figured out which button to press, the button presses had to be quite slow as otherwise it didn't work. The process is a big pain. The worst experience with bluetooth pairing I have had with any headphones.

Despite being warned I went ahead a purchased these headphones to use in my office on my Xbox Series S and PS5. I just wanted great sound and convenience. I was also extremely curious. I also knew it wasn’t really the best choice for me either but… I still took the plunge.

And wow do these sound amazing! They sound great but are a pain to use as an IOS user. It sucks that I can’t even use the Bluetooth and my iPhone because the music drains everything else out and the volume controls are useless. I also wish they would work with an iPad as well but I digress.

About two months of use and today it started. A louder hiss in the right ear that previously became silent when sound connected. Well today… 5 minutes later, after the louder hiss, it turned to sounds of crushing/crunching tin foil in the right ear that became exacerbated and louder when my head moved. Sometimes it is quieter but still present. Sounds like lose metal.

It has to be a bigger problem that just the pressure changes and diaphragm right? Has anyone experienced this?

Thank you very much.

It's pressure changes caused by closed planarmagnetic design. It's not limited to Audeze headphones. We're talking about a piece of film that is thinner than a human hair sandwiched between two magnet arrays. Yes, pressure changes can absolutely cause planars issues. More so if people press in the cups towards their head. All that air pressure is being forced onto the drivers. Bad idea.

Those look nice. Anyone heard the previous version?

I posted here on Jan 27th about the hairline cracks forming on both sides of my Penrose and started a ticket with them the same day. Yesterday I received my replacement unit and I'm damn impressed with Audeze as a result. The turnaround time once they received the cracked set was only a couple days, and they used expedited shipping to get me my new one, which seems to be in fine working order.

I do fear that there may be a structural weakness there that will cause cracks to form again in the future but nonetheless, a lot of companies drag their asses far more with supporting their products and customers. Kudos @Audeze @Mad Lust Envy

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

 

[Max Cow Disease]

I noticed a third batch of presets for Audeze HQ are up entitled "Level up your gaming". I hadn't noticed these before - are they the previously game-specific presets (Escape from Tarkov, CoD, etc.) repurposed, or is this a new set? These new ones are just titled with various genres like FPS, arena shooter, etc.

The sound is ok. The mic is horrendous.

The sound is ok. The mic is horrendous.

this part is true even for the GX which is quite a bit more expensive, lucky for me I have like 20 USD audio technica USB mic which sound 100x better (still a bit annoying though and I might try to sell the cable for the gx later lol
