I saw those but they don't look like a good fit, I mean the headphones are oblong and the pads are circular.

hmm I guess you're right

Should I buy the BlasterX AE-5 and do comparison videos with the SBZ SBX? Could also throw in DHP. Just to clarify if that soundcard brings in a new gen of VST. It's 150€ however :|

Holy crap, I always thought the eyes in your avatar were eyebrows and the mouth openings were eyes.

Dude it looks incredible! I hope it sounds as good as you were aiming for. How does it sound?

Come over to Poland and hear for yourself.

I have AC on all the time, it's not that bad. I don't even listen that loud. You learn to tune it out. If you need closed headphones look for a EMU Walnut, Creative Aurvana Live (1st one, not the second gen that looks stupid), or maybe a used Mad Dog ( a very underated headphone).

What do you think about Ath-A500X and the newer version A550Z? These are all closed-back i.e. what I need. How do you think the ATH models fair against the CAL! ?

 

[cskippy]

I haven't heard those or read anything about them. I'm not a huge Audio Technica fan though. Looking at other closed ATH headphones on Innerfidelity the CAL seems like the better alternative but that's just my opinion.

So anyone else preorder an Xbox One X? So excited for this. I cannot wait to play in HDR with 4K abilities for everything, including apps.

 

[cskippy]

I'm not really even tempted. I mostly play PC games but there were always a few Xbox exclusive games that I HAD to have. I was a life long Halo player until it started going south with Halo 4. Halo 5 just went too far away from what Halo used to be, too CoD like for me. I hope Halo 6 goes back to their roots.

Forza 7 might be okay but there aren't any revelations in racing games that make me go okay that's cool, I need to play that. My favorite Forza was Forza 5. Forza 6 felt like a step backwards to me.

I have been saving games that will be updated to play. I'm running through the PS4 Pro HDR exclusives right now. I play everything else on Xbox. Grabbed a few titles really cheap that are getting the 4K treatment.

 

[cskippy]

I still need to pick up a PS4 Pro to play their exclusives, also need an HDR TV lol!

 

[illram]

I'm mostly interested in the Xbox X as s media streaming device. My PC handles 4k gaming duties mostly but content owners seem to want to force us to watch everything on locked down devices. I'd be content with my "smart TV" but it can't output Dolby Atmos....enter Xbox one X...

Oh I just found out about Superflux 668B. They are semi-open. Is it enough to block the air con and fan noise?, do you have any idea?
