100+ Head-Fier
Just had a quick question - have been running a X7 with BT-W2 for PS4 gaming which was needed due to the headphones I had been using.
Two things have changed, my gaming is mainly One X based now (with voice chat needed) and I now have far easier to drive headphones/headset (Audio Technica ATH-ADG1X). I'm quite happy with the quality of Windows Sonic/Dolby Atmos via the pad and now feel the £300 Creative setup I have is overkill.
Wondered if running a Mixamp Pro TR with Dolby off would add anything quality wise compared to the controller audio. Headphones clearly sound better via the X7 than via the pad but need a much more lounge friendly voice chat set up (which is awful on the X1/X7 combo). While I appreciate the DAC/Amp of the Mixamp probably isn't all that, is it even a slight step up from the pad?
