I've played and finished God of War to like the third instalment, never really that impressed with the series to be honest.
Actually I find most of the Sony exclusives to be pretty meh or down right offensively boring, including much hyped games like Uncharted (I HATE Nathan Drake, I simply cannot sympathise with that character).
Yes thats one of the things i like about the game apart from the greek mythology backdrop and some decent CGI. You can actually pin Zeus down .. Nathan Drake.. no love there and i agree with you.

I used to swear off Sony stuff when I first got on here.
VAIO computer horror experience and the rootkit fiasco they were in with copyright protection stuff.....not gonna be a part of their ecosystem.

Now they own me.

Life's a trip
Would you call me a Sony fan boy, the EX collection with cables, also have the Zx2, and ZX300, still considering the WM1A or just skip it for the 2019 anniversary/special edition release. Have other stuff, non Sony brand.

I thought Horizon Zero Dawn was a rare PlayStation gem, main storyline is fantastic and graphics/gameplay well done, the DLC is pretty solid as well

I don't have a PlayStation 4.
The last PlayStation I bought was the 3, and I bought that for the Blu-ray player mostly.

Back on topic, the DC phase linearizer and the dsee strings gives the recording a nadie ce holographic feeling, but eats battery like crazy

300 ohm cans...definitely counts :)
I have the HD660S since 3 month now. I love it from the SONY WM1A. I comes with a 3m cable terminated in 4.4mm Pentacon.
  • This cable also fits all other HD580 to HD650 cans. So right now I have the HD650 running balanced out of the SONY WM1A. Volume is 65 to 80 of 120 depending on the music. The Bass gets more exact, the mids a little clearer and the treble a little more detailed. Overall a more engaging, but still laid back sound. The cable will soon be available as spare part from Sennheiser, it's worth a try. The HD660S needs less volume about 8 steps less and is more detailed across the board in comparison without getting out of the HD line's perfect balance in my honest opinion. But again both cans benefit by large from the balanced output of the WM1A/Z.

Soon I will be running my hd650 headphones out of a Bottlehead Crack tube amp with the 1.1 Speedball upgrade and a Dale attenuater. I plan to use Big Sur Audioquest 3.5 mm to RCA input.

Sounds like a plan, not very portable though.....

I have Shure SRH1540 and Audioquest Nighthawks to use with the Sony and both sound really good from balanced. I think the HD650 will become my home rig headset.

Yup, I'm there also.... Plus a pair of WH-1000XM2,a pair of the new WF-1000X and an Xperia-xz-premium phone crammed full of 24/192...... But I have to say I'm sticking with Apple for desk and laptops, primarily because I love OSX. Oh, and a PSHX500 turntable....
