So im wondering, like the above post...Would the X1s be able to have a sound signiture near an MA900 for competitive gaming by using the EQ and reducing the Bass on the X1s?

Because if thats the case, then I wouldnt mind keeping the X1s and selling the MA900s if its possible

Sorry to change the subject... but...
 
 

 

 
 

 
 
 Pads are much thinner and made of different material those of the K712. How does it sound? So far, let's just say... did these really only cost me $165?

Don't you already own or have both headphone on the way?  You can just compare them for yourself and see which you like better.

$165?  Is that from Razor Dog?
 
How much ear room is there inside?

Could you try the K712 pads and tell us how they compare?
I could use thicker pads...

Yup! I posted it the day I ordered them. Coupon code K612PRO
 
Similar to that of the Annie pads...
 
He also has a coupon for $200 off the K812... K812PRO

Got the A30s in...

I guess they'll do for gaming when I need chat, but the initial impression with music is... meh.

Kinda makes me wish I jumped on the X1 deal, and bought the vmoda mic.

BtW Mixamp pro 2011 BRAND NEW with all the cables for $55 shipped. GET AT ME BROS.

  I wish I hadn't slept through the X1 deal. I woke up around 10:30 and it was all sold out at that point. The pains of working second shift.

 
I put it in my cart that morning, before school, but it was listed as it wouldn't ship until 1-2 months. I checked an hour later and it was no longer sold by seller selected...

I was going to order the mixamp 5.8 combo, but decided to pass on that. I had a feeling I might have to order some K712 pads, and it looks like I'm going to.

The ohm number of my receiver really confuses me, but it has been working really well for the time I own it, so I don´t want to replace it until it´s broken - and because the new consoles have eaten my money reserves.
 
After moving into a student flat I used a cheap Sony MDRZX300B with 24 ohm on my receiver and it worked not that worse, but perhaps it was only because I don´t know how good something like the MA 900 could sound...
 
My brother has a similar old, but nevertheless absolutely better Yamaha receiver with which he is running a DT 990 Pro 250ohm version.
He likes it, but IMO it had too high treble what I found ear piercing and I can imagine I would get headache after hours of using it.
Besides the treble I think the DT 990 Pro is an amazing sound experience.
 
 
Nevertheless, I will test the MA 900 and hope it will fit my taste.
 
 
Thanks for your response Chicolom.
 
 
PS:
 
A real pity I am not living in the US, otherwise I would have ordered the Fidelio X1 for the price of 150$...
