Ok, thanks for the help. I have installed equalizer PRO and used the settings for the HD599 like suggested, couldn't find "Flat" or "neutral" for those, just this Settings, are those correct? PS: It's normal that i can't hear any difference if i toggle the settings on and off? While if i change the audio curve using Xonar DGX software i can hear the difference? Edit: Now it works like expected. Just last question, is normal that now i have to use volume around 70-80% for hear normally when before i was using 40% ? Uploaded the final settings, tell me if they are good for gaming purpose. Thanks, Davide.

Thanks all for the answer. In the Reddit Post i've found out the settings for the HD558, while i'm using the HD559. Should that config be fine? PS: So i should put 8channel, dolby headphone, 48KHz on the sound card software, then insert the config inside equalizer apo, right? Thanks, Davide.

With "instead" you mean to uninstall the software and just use APO? Could you link the guide, please? Not sure about the one i found.

Hi all, My name is Davide. I've bought a pair of HD559 and i'm actually using a Xonar DGX audio card. I would like to configure it at the best, but i don't know a lot of audio stuff. I will use them 90% of the time for gaming purpose. I have uploaded a screenshot of the software of the card. I really don't know how i should set this headset for gaming purpose, neither i know what are "HF" and "GX" mode and if they should be enabled. thanks for help, Davide.

Yeah, i understood. Thank you. My lasts questions are: For like 15€ more i can get myself a Samson METEOR MIC, is that better than V Boom Microphone? Which one of those 2 is better for not taking too much key sound? I have a blue switch keyboard, and i don't want to make too much noise with the keys. Will they take game audio 'cause HD559 are open back?

So, after a bit, i choose this configuration:HD559 : https://www.amazon.it/Sennheiser-HD...&ie=UTF8&qid=1526539423&sr=1-1&keywords=hd5596.3 to 3.5 jack connector(not sure if this one is correct): https://www.amazon.it/Homelink-pres...523&sr=1-3&keywords=adattatore+jack+6.3+a+3.5V-Moda BoomPro : https://www.amazon.it/V-MODA-BoomPr...ie=UTF8&qid=1526537304&sr=1-4&keywords=modmicFor a total of: 140€That's inside the price range and i think i would get a good quality, right? Is that better than the "Already-Made" HyperX Cloud Revoler S/HyperX Cloud Alpha sound/audio positioning?For the sound card, would i really notice difference between DGX and the Sound Blaster Z sound? Not only for the quality of the audio itself, but i'm talking even for the audio positioning, that's an important factor for me.I used the DGX for a while now, and i can understand where the sound come from, but if you guys think that the Blaster Z/or other suggestion would give me better experience of audio positioning and better quality i could see if i can pay another 70€ for it.PS: I'm used to have 2 audio control on my actually headset, one for change the game audio and one for change the chat audio like discord, etc. Would it be possible to do that even on the hd559? I saw that the V-Moda has a volume changer, is that for all the audio or only that chat one?

Thank you for the answer. Well, I can't try them so I can only see reviews and comments of other people owning the product. I saw the headphone you suggested, but headphone+mic are out of my budget So, after some research, i found some headphone that i would like: -sennheiser hd 559 98€ + mic(dont know which one so i can't find the price) -hyperX cloud Alpha 100€ -HyperX Cloud Revoler S 160€ -Sennheiser hd 599 159€ + mic(don't know which one so i can't find the price) -Game One 180€ Which one of those are better? What's the microphone that i should buy for the Hd 559 and hd 599, and what's the price for it? Would i need a sound card / amp for those headphone/headset to work greet? I have this motherboard: https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/B75A-G43.html and that sound card: https://www.asus.com/it/Sound-Cards/Xonar_DGX/ Thanks for the help, i don't know a lot of audio things.

Thanks both for the answer. With 7.1 i wanted to say that works well with 7.1 simulate sounds for hearing the direction itself, so i don't mind if they are acctually 7.1 or simulate, as soon as they work good. I read a lot of reviews for the headphone you put there, but they all say that's those headphone are really great, but not for gaming, and since that would be my priority use, i think it's not a good choise. Are they wrong about the fact that those headphone doesn't work well compared with HyperX Cloud headset for gaming purpose?

Thanks for the suggestion, but i need an headset with a microphone included for the chat audio and 7.1 for hearing the direction of the sounds while gaming.

Hi, my name is Davide. I would like to buy a new pair of headset for around 150€ I was looking around and a lot of sites claim that HyperX Revoler S and Artics 7 are both a good choise. What you think about that, guys? Have any more suggestion? I would use those headset for playing games like fortnite, etc. Best Regards, Davide.
