Lust, do those Shure 1540 pads up the bass a bit? I just got some 560s, which are a lot better than my 400s in a lot of ways, but a little low in bass.

yes. These are amazing headphones. I still can't believe how cheap in price these are. I love these so much. I don't suggest using these double amped however. Seems to add too much power and makes them sound bad. Explosions were getting so distorted in black Ops 3 I thought I damaged them. Mix amp is plenty of power for 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
It's only free to play until the 30th, will be locked after it expires. Still cool for those who have time to binge play it.
And speaking of Microsoft, they announced that Dolby Atmos support will be added to the One.
Guys, i saw DT770 Pro 16 ohms version. Any thoughts on that? or just stick with the 80 ohms one?
I wanna try out a closed back after using SHP9500 for a while now
As it's only 16-Ohms, it a headphone that is really intended to be plugged into a portable audio player or smartphone
or headphone amplifier with a really low output impedance.
If your looking for closed headphones to plug into a computer, check out the Soundmagic HP150 headphones.
I'm looking to get a pair of headphones for playing Overwatch and PvP SWTOR. They are solely going to be used for gaming, with 85% of that time being group situations. I am also interested in streaming so I have a Q502USB and PDMIC58 (plus a mic boom and pop filter) sitting in a cart. That (new) equipment runs about $100. That being said, after looking over this guide I was looking at either the K612 Pro or K702. I'm not sure if it makes a difference on needing an amp or not but my current mobo is a ASUS Z170-A.
I'm trying to keep it all to <$500 (and I already have a camera). I'm OK with buying used gear, other than the headphones. My biggest question is about purchasing an amp, I'm really unsure of what to even look for. Does the use the Q502USB mixer change what headphone amp I should buy?
