Hello.
I have been using the Astro Gaming Headset/Mixamp combo for gaming for years now. I have been interested and been reading many forums and watching videos on Youtube on the Sennheiser and Beyerdynamic headphones having a great soundstage, especially for gaming.
NOW, I want a high quality sound for my video games and the occasional movies. I have a pair of Audio Technica ATH-50's for my music already so thats covered.
I'm using Astro Gaming Headset/Mixamp for gaming on my PS4 and it does its job but from what im reading I can get a better and higher quality sound from a higher quality headphone and im stuck between the Sennheiser 558 and the Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pros. I already ordered a ModMic to connect to what ever headphone I choose to use for chat when I go multiplayer.
Which would be the better choice? Like I said I have the pre-2013 Mixamp from Astro for surround and chat when im playing multiplayer but when playing single player games I have read the Turtle Beach DSS 2 is a better amp. I just want the best for surround sound gaming and movies. Astro has released a brand new version of the Mixamp with 7.1 surround that im considering as well.
What are your guys suggestions for this whole thing? I know this subject has been beaten down for years now but I started this thread to get a more personal feel on it.
Thank You for reading and any input is appreciated!
