Hey, I bought the ad700x 2 weeks ago but I had to send them back because the drivers touched my ears and the wing design got stuck in my hair lol.. I bought them for gaming and I really loved the sound in games like CSGO. So it sucks that I had to send them back, but I was wondering if there's any headphones close or "the same" as the ad700x?
I will only use it for competitive gaming. I've looked at the AKG K702 so far, would they be close to ad700x?

I don't think I can buy from massdrop, it will get very expensive because of shipment. I live in Denmark and I think I have to pay like 25% extra of what it says...

The other is the K712. See what the pricing is where you are and compare to the Massdrop K7XX. I think you'll be very happy with them. I love my K702 65th Anniversary, which is almost identical to those two above.

Can't you just build some nice headphones out of Legos?

My lego building level is not high enough to do that, it takes a master to build lego headphones.

i´m also in desperate search for the best csgo competitive gaming headphone/headset with roughly ~200€ budget. at the moment i bought the pc360se for 99€ but tbh i dont like them. Game zero and game one should be not much of a difference. cant find a setting where i´m able to hear the steps around me accurate all the time some steps also seem to dissapear although i should hear them. i use a x-fi titanium fatality soundcard
so far my list contains ad700 (ad500x should be close to the sound of the ad700 i read),ad700x
AKG K702,k240,k612pro
 
At the moment i tend to buy the ad500x and K702 and keep the better fitting one for my requirement. Most important for gaming is a wide soundstage with focus on mids and not much bass. thats why the ad700 is the ultimate gaming headphone, sad that u cant buy them anymore unused
 
maybe somebody can help us

I had the ad700x and I used them for CSGO and they were so much better than my sennheiser game one. Only reason I send them back was because they were uncomfortable for me. So if they fit on your melon better than mine then they're the best choice 100%.

After doing some research, I had almost decided on the Fostex FH-X00 Ebony... but I think I might just save up some more money and go with a Mr. Speakers Ether C flow.  Huge leap in price, but if it's as good as Mad Lust Envy makes it sound, I'm willing to wait.

 

[mbyrnes]

I went ahead and ordered the TH-X00 Ebony, lol. Guess it is more curiosity than anything, but I've wanted the a while. Worried they end production if I don't grab them now. Best part is they ship next week!

Has anyone tried the Audio technical M40X with a DSS2 for battlefield 1? my puppy chewed through my ATHWS77 and my AKG545 have gone in the left earcup.

 

[mbyrnes]

I have the ATH-M50X, and I'm not crazy about them. Too closed in, no soundstage. But I was used to the AKG K702 Annie's, which are awesome for gaming. Haven't heard your cans, so I can't compare anything. Wish I could help more

I have sent for the M40X from amazon I had to use my giftcard up..i hope they sound alright with the dss2 they are 35ohm headphones and shouldn't be difficult to drive!

I sometimes use the M40X for gaming. 
 
I really like them. As soon as you can get the HM5 pads for them. 
 
The pads open the sound stage a little and are more comfortable then the stock pads.
 
This is impo.
