Yeah I gotta agree with this, I got a pair for music but I fell in love with them when gaming. Being able to hear everything in the environment is a pleasurable experience for me.HD800S just makes everything so immersive. Love the soundstage and imaging in games.
Many spacious and quick cans work great in games that prioritize positioning and sensation of space around us, and Sennheiser's entire 800 range is great in this regard.Yeah I gotta agree with this, I got a pair for music but I fell in love with them when gaming.

They make an 887 combo? I’ve only ever seen the amp, you have a link?HD 800 with THX AAA 887 amp/dac combo.
What pads do you use while gaming? I always reach for my HD800S, SHP9500’s or X2’s before my TH-X00’s. The stock pads get hot quick, and the TH-900 pads are too loose. Also, the accentuated bass and tighter soundstage really mess with my directional awareness.Fostex Massdrop THX00, because it can give you bass, EQs nicely, is non-fatiguing, you can swap the pads to the kind you like, they can take a beating, are not too expensive and the closed nature reduces outside noises (traffic, computer noise, etc). The only downside for me was the headband, but I solved it by putting a wool softener (kind a like a sock or a wrap-around) around the headband and now it doesn't press my head anymore.
I've owned tons of other headpones, have tried most of the closed good quality ones and the only one that I liked equal (but with different sound characteristics) was Beyerdynamic T70P with Beyer's replacement gel pads (excellent isolation, great if you wear glasses).
I've used Dekoni Sheepskin elite and ZMF Lambskin earpads. I think I ended up enjoying ZMF more in the end. It was not perfect, but for me seal, bass and comfort were better.What pads do you use while gaming? I always reach for my HD800S, SHP9500’s or X2’s before my TH-X00’s.

I’m actually on the hunt for a closed back gaming headphone. One with great comfort, good staging/imaging, non fatiguing and acceptable bass. Leaning towards the Sony Z1r as the TH-X00 isn’t working out.
