Hi all, new member here! Looking for some newbie help
I just purchased the Razer Tiamat 7.1 Headphones to compliment my first sound card purchase for my PC (Asus Xonar Phoebus soundcard for gaming).
I am enjoying the experience so far, as am an avid gamer. HOWEVER, I would now like to purchase my first proper "music" headset to compliment my gaming Razer Tiamat pair. My budget is $400, and so far I have been recommended the Denon AHD2000 for $369.99 at Amazon.
A little background info, I enjoy music with a lot of bass which led me to the recommendation so far, and I would like to make sure that if I shell out for this second pair of headphones, I will notice a significant improvement over the Tiamat's while plugged into the new Asus Phoebus sound card.
So I ask you, is it possible to have a vast improvement over the Tiamat 7.1 in terms of music and bass power for my desktop configuration and is it worthwhile? Thanks
Here's the details of my configuration so far:
sound card: ASUS Xonar Phoebus http://www.asus.com/Multimedia/Audio_Cards/ROG_Xonar_Phoebus/
surround sound gaming headset: Razer Tiamat 7.1 http://www.razerzone.com/tiamat/en
music headset with great bass: TBD!
cpu: i7 2600k
mobo: AS Rock Z68 Extreme7 Gen3
psu: AX1200
gpu: 2 sli gtx 580 3gb's
Thanks all for your input/consideration, I am really new at this and am confident I am taking a step in the right direction by consulting yee wise gentlemen/ladies!
