Even the leakest planars didn't make a peep when I used a mic with them. You'd have to be blowing your ear drums out for a crazy chance for the mic to pick up the audio.

btw,
 
plugging headphones into the PSVR autodefaults to speaker room HRTF when you play "normal" games. No need to put the glasses on.

I would think the K712 or K7XX would be the better choice over Sennheiser 598s. My K702 65th Anniversary, which the 2 AKG I listed above sound like, have a decent amount of bass. The soundstage and Positional accuracy are insane good. I've never heard the 598s,but I used to have the PC360s, and the lack of bass to me, really hurt the experience.

I'll be trying my new DT 990s with Battlefield 1 this weekend. Over the next few months, I'll be flipping back and forth between the K702 65th and DT 990. I also have Titanfall 2, COD 4 remastered, and COD Infinite Warfare preordered. From what I've read on them, the audio is really good. Going to be a great few months of Xbox One gaming for me.

My gamer tag is: TheRealMaxPower, if anyone wants to team up.

Listen to Vapor album by Yosi Horikawa. It's so good it can be used for soundstage benchmark.

OK. So i have had the SHP9500 for a little over a week and I have to say the hype is real. For price,sound quality, comfort,connectability, and able to be driven easily..Let's just say, I'm selling my DT990 pro 250 ohm that I just bought in September on ebay($110.00) because I like the SHP9500 better than the DT990. Less harsh in the treble and I feel it has better low end. They shouldn't cost this little for what you get. Every gamer should at least try these!

Had my 9500s for about the same time - I had reservations over the very light clamp but after some long gaming sessions I've come to appreciate that from a comfort point of view.  Paired with a VModa boom and they've turned into the best set of gaming headphones I've used. I've never been great at 'hearing' directional audio as such - even with them plugged into the PS4 pad I got a sense of space and direction I've never had before.  Now I've added a mixamp, they've been superb at identifying the direction of imminent attack in BF1

Neither. Get the Shure 1540 pads. I prefer their sound the most, but I do like the Audeze leatherfree pads for comfort (they're cooler on the ears, though the sound isn't as good, IMHO)

I feel the Focuspads lose out a little on bass, which I didn't like. I haven't tried the As.

 
i thought the same until i replaced my o2 with the jot, plenty of bass even with focus As.

 

[themrmikemcd]

Yep, I just put these brainwavs pads on my Creative Aurvana Live! Headphones.....not sure how I feel about this yet...seems like alot of the sound is coming more from the right side than the left side which is weird. It is 1000 times more comfortable. Ill report back after I test it for a while.
