Well, I decided that I wont purchase the X2 anymore, at least not anytime soon or a good price drop happens next year. I miss my X1 but Im joining the AKG K7xx bandwagon :).
 
Im actually quite excited since these will be my first pair of AKG. I was going to get a pair of AKGk712 earlier last week but the best available price of 338 was gone :frowning2: and I was stuck between getting the X2 or.......well just the X2 lol.
 
I cant wait for the K7XX. I already have the page saved and checking it everytime i remember about it. (hmm stares at savings account....)

Bet it's gonna sound amazing.

If it wasn't for the X2, I'd have dove headfirst into the K7XX. Lately all I have looked for is just something affordable that I could use for all purposes. The K7XX would've fit that bill quite easily, especially if it sounds like the Annie.

Just cancel your order lol
 
But yeah, I will still buy the X2, regardless of what I have. K7xx may just be used for gaming and X2 more for like movies and some gaming. I just like that fact that I can use my Vmoda with the X2 easily, while the AKG i will need to purchase an adapter of sort to make it work with the Vmoda

Zombie_X makes some adapters for AKGs to use 3.5mm cables like the Boompro. However, AKGs will need some extra amping for the Mixamp. That means that with the Boompro, you'll need to use the accompanying splitter so you can separate vame and mic audio and attach an amp on the game audio side. I assume the X2 will be okay when using a mic and no amp. I'll know in a few days.

There is only one pair of headphones that support it and they're 300$ wireless gaming headphones (Turtle Beach Elite 800). Pretty sure nobody has that kind of cash to burn on a product that is probably going to be mediocre anyway.

Cheapest Turtle Beach Ear Force Z60 with DTS Headphone:X 7.1 for $120.

But these are "fake" 7.1 dts headphone x, since the true dts x must be encode with 11.1 dts hp x audio stream.
And another one for $130.
