K701 perhaps? I'm personally going to eventually upgrade to the Ad2000.
Mess with the positioning of them, they're more prone to being worn "wrong" than the Ad700.
After a day with them on right I still find the peak at 5khz too much, using an EQ and bringing it down 2dB makes them a lot better.
But I don't want to use an EQ all the time, anyone know of a mod that would tame the peak?
You want to take the headphone apart instead of changing 2dB on your eq?
i got these headphones and for gaming with an astro mixamp and music mainly on my laptop and android phone. for gaming they are the best thing i have ever experienced, i actually forget i am wearing headphones they are so comfortable and the sound stage is truely amazing the only gripe i have is explosions are kinda flat due to lows being so light.
i thought about picking up a zo2 for them to punch up the low end a bit, but on my android phone using voodoo control any tiny amount of bass boost gets me a clicking in the right driver, it was hard to tell that i was actually hearing it until i ran a frequency sweep, and its clear that its only the one driver between around 50-60hz that clicks like crazy in the right driver only.
i have only had these for a few weeks and the vendor on amazon has offered me a full refund, not just a replacement pair. being that i am new to audiophile headphone market, i have, as some stated "looked elsewhere" for something with more lows, but is there anything else out there with an amazing directional sound stage where i can pinpoint in game action, but has a little more low end.
