  1. @iRandomize Nice Review I´m currently in a similar situation and was hoping you could tell me the reasons that turned you away from the X1 in more detail, as that is my number 1 choice currently. Better to find out now than later, maybe even change the #1 spot... (the XPS is currently #2 because of the keyboard; The MBP... mixed feelings using it for mechanical engineering and it hasn´t been renewed in quite a while now)
  2. I had the same decision to make recently and went for the HD 518 - I was so impressed by them that I sold them to a coworker after he listened to them and was wowed too, and then proceeded to buy the 598s. They are great! The only downside for you will be, that you are used to more bass from the beats. Comfort wise: Velour ear pads, low clamping force, ... -> no sweating and you can wear them for hours without noticing them. Btw. they look way better in real life than on Amazon!
  3. You are welcome - I even had to read your Mac Book review afterwards . I always feel bad to put a $5 case on a design someone put so much thought and time into and I want the best possible screen to bezel ratio.
  4. Solid review and well written. Welcome to the no-case-club.
  5. Thanks. That should clear up the issues with wrong mounting and scaling for people.
  6. Here are all of my designs now finally printed out: #1: Mounted the wrong way around https://www.myminifactory.com/object/8487 #2: ok (just printed to small) https://www.myminifactory.com/object/8585 #3: waaaaay to small - someone must´ve printed it in inches (it was 180mm tall and the arm reached nearly that far out too!) https://www.myminifactory.com/object/8410 Somehow none of my rendered pictures are shown... Pictures:
  7. Can´t wait to see what they will do to my designs Btw. be sure to always tell them to print in millimeters... One of my [mm]-uploads turned into a dwarf [inches]: https://www.myminifactory.com/object/half-life-phone-stand-iphone-6-size-9756 What did you use to render? The Aluminum looks great!
  8. +1 on headphones and mic (hd598 (or cheaper HD 558)+mic is actually in budget!) Sennheiser HD 598: http://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-HD-598-Over-Ear-Headphones/dp/B0042A8CW2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1435245840&sr=8-1&keywords=hd598&pebp=1435245864252&perid=1BDSRXY41BS9H00J3435 $150.99 ModMic: http://www.amazon.com/AntLion-Audio-ModMic-Attachable-Microphone/dp/B00T6XUL8S/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1435245846&sr=8-1&keywords=modmic&pebp=1435245911786&perid=06RQZM61Y5DXD78Q66YV $49.95 The DT 770s would be great too, just a little bit more expensive. Edit: I have the HD 598s myself and love them. Open back is just great for soundstage

  10. Thanks for your review. I think I will get one while there´s the 100$ discount on it in June.
  11. Please tell me more why phones are a way better investment (and no, if you only exchange the gpu, you will never spend 2k every 1.5 years). I don´t know a single phone that can run the highest end applications smoothly after 5 years... So they are in the same category as the Gpus Go ahead and enlighten me, I just like the comedy show you are putting on here. And please take a minute to write a proper answer. You are not the only non-non native speaker here, and everybody else seems to invest the time to post proper sentences too.
