i bought the sound blaster g6 2 days ago, and i was using it with the hyperx cloud flight. i have turned the setting to low, for low ohm headphones, but its just too loud for me i have to keep the volume at 4% at all times. i was considering a audio technica M50x, would that solve the problem? and will the sound quality improve from my cloud flight?

The m50x are really bad for gaming. Small soundstage, and just a bad sound signature. If you have an amp. Like the G6 just buy a pair of like DT 770 pro 80ohm or DT 990 pro 250ohm.

PM/DM me if you have any questions about audio.
