Yeah the problem with open back is my pc is actually currently in a public space and I don't see that changing in the immediate future, hence why I said in OP closed back was a requirement if someone was to suggest something. I'll talk to spwath about the fostex tho. We'll see.

Heyo, so you I've made some threads in the last couple months regarding headphones etc. I think I may have finally decided (with the help of this subforum, which, might I add, has been very good). The DT770 Pro being the pair I've chosen. Now, I want to know a little more about them, I've read quite a few reviews etc etc. But none of those tell me how they are for playing video games, which will be one of the main things I'll be doing with them. From the reviews I've gotten that the soundstage is quite good, and that the sound signature is fairly even. I however would like to know a bit more, mostly how they perform in games, etc. Most of these reviews just focused on music and fancy terms I (as a non-audiophile) don't actually fully understand the meaning of, especially considering the only headset/pair of headphones I'd had before were the HyperX Cloud's. I'll be going with (most likely) a Schiit Magni-2 amp. Just trying to get the best setup I can for my money, and so far these seem to be a good setup to achieve that. P.S: Before you suggest a different pair in response to the sentence above, please note I can ONLY use closed back headphones due to where my PC is. Thanks for any input/help you can have/can provide!

How can you freak out about warranty? Iirc my ram came with lifetime warranty and my psu 7 years.

If your dad is ANYTHING like mine, just tell him the advantages in regards to price/money.

Will give those a look!

The specific reason was that the M50x's were quite over rated and there were much better headsets. Of course last time I didn't specify closed back so all I got was open back suggestions :^(

Was warned to stay away from those.

Hello friends we are back with another thread because none of the other threads bore fruit. Basically looking for a pair of headphones that are closed back have a decently even sound balance, a good soundstage. Used to listen to music and play games. Has to have a 3.5mm jack as I run it through a passthrough on my blue yeti. Budget is 250 CAD (200 USD) or under. Thanks for the help.

PC not in a private space, hence openback is a no go. That is, if I'm understanding how that works. (Open back bleeds noise into the environment). Edit: I'm dumb. Only checked 559s. 558's are closed back, woops. Edit 2: I'm dumb, both are open. Too bad, they sounded (ha) like exactly what I was looking for.

Some people use headset and headphones interchangeably, hence both of them being in the title. Specified in the thread don't need a mic.

Even though I know the mic is removable, I'm still paying for it when I could be paying for a better headset overall. Although I've definitely kept those on the table as an option.

Hello again audio sub friends. It is I, the frenchiest fry, back with another thread. So last time I was suggested to look at this: Which was fairly helpful actually. However I don't know if any of the options in that thread were really what I'm looking for. So here we go. What I'm looking for in a headset is more or less as follows. Closed back, good soundstage, and good clarity with a balanced sound signature. No need for a "gaming headset" with a mic etc. I have a desktop mic (blue yeti blackout), which I run my headset through, so 3.5mm jack preferably :^) My budget is 250 CAD (200 USD), but preferably under 200 CAD (160 USD). Prefer PLeather ear pads as opposed to anything "fuzzy". Basically, smooth ear cups preferred. My old headset was an original pair of HyperX Clouds, just to give anyone trying to help a reference to what I'm used to/where I'm coming from. Thanks for any help you can provide. Here's a link to the old/previous thread if you're interested. -Previous thread from a week or two ago -Thread from a couple months ago when my headset first started to get spotty Thanks for any help/suggestions!

No. I mean seriously why would you install a mod if it's going to ruin the game. Sure adding laser guns to skyrim would ruin the atmosphere, but you had to have some reason for installing it that you thought would add to the gameplay experience right? RIGHT?

Looks awfully similar to my skyrim game.

Do you seriously only use random skyrim screenshots as PFPs. It's straight up been like 3 years and that's all I've ever seen you use.

Steam link is in profile.

I've played with people from like Switzerland before. It's funny.

go bed instead of break thing thats what im do

I mean I only thought it was worth mentioning bc I'd been comparing my stuff to yours. tbh before I read this thread I thought the 980's were just a ti with a couple disabled cores so I thought you were talking about trying to re-enable the cores or smth lmao

Might be worth mentioning I have a 980(ti).

sounds similiar to mine, except I've never tried actually pushing it bc I don't have the time. but I apparently have the time to funpost on a garbo tech forum at 4 am
