I hope that any problems can be addressed in a firmware update, although I'm a little surprised that they shipped the developer units with any problems at all: after all we're on the cusp of wider shipping. Please post as much as you can about these: photos would be very welcome, as well as any & all impressions. I'm thinking that these are comfortable headphones (because God Knows they aren't pretty!) ..?
Buy "OSSIC X" or not?

Could you tell a little bit more about the sound signature? So how is the sound in stereo mode and how is the 3-D option to have two loud speakers in front of you? Is it really convincing?
at this time i can only say that this is definitely something in the beta.. stage. sound is boomy.. and 3d is not convincing.
Oh ...
I was sort of expecting that at this point. Maybe they'll pull it back in software.

That is very unfortunate. I was able to pull out as a development backer and settled with Ossic for becoming a normal backer.
I am so sorry to hear that neither the money nor the wait was worth it.
I'm setting my expectations low but it's too early to write them off. I wanted to use them for films and music but right now my hope is that they can be a decent gaming headset. But I'm in no hurry to receive a gaming headset so as far as I'm concerned they can take their time trying to get this thing right!
smart man! i kept as a development backer, figuring if they go belly up, i'd at least get something before that happens.
I pray they fix this noise floor/hiss issue. I ran this through a jitterbug, uptone regen. and other things to see if it was usb noise. but Nothing helped this white noise/hiss i get.

Is this an issue across other dev units too? Or limited to your specific device
they told me there could be issues when battery is low.. my battery isn't low, and they didn't deny others could have the same problem
