One side of this to consider is that audio is a large part of the VR experience and many on head-fi are serious (aka picky
) when it comes to their headphones.
I personally would prefer if the Oculus didn't integrate headphones into the headset. That would let me use the Oculus while continuing to listen with my newest headphones or headphone amp. With the Oculus display, changes are obviously improvements or not. With headphones and audio, there is no one-size-fits-all and everyone wants something different. Some want the soundstage of an open back headphone. Others need the isolation of in ear. Plenty of people judge headphones by how much bass they have while some value accuracy.
The only way I see of pleasing everyone is to let each person choice for him or her self.
