Is this Audio-Setup ok? :)

[BlackMirror]

Hey,

So after the last thread I wanted to pick up this Combo:

Dt 990s ,250 Ohm, Premium

Zalman ZM-MIC1

Fiio e10

Mainly Doing 60% Competetive Gaming 40% Listening to Music (Tho if i want to listen to music i want the sound to be really good) Genres:Mainly Rap,Hip Hop but also some electronic and a tiny bit of dubstep.

Also wanted to know from you guys if the 990s would be good for hearing footsteps  or for hearing details.

And if I would buy these 990s and the e10, would the e10 destroy any of these mentioned features or the surround sound in games (or the one from Razer)?

 

Thanks for your replys and sorry that im asking this im just a audio noob and want to be really sure to buy the right stuff because 300 Euros are much to me.

E10 works fine on the high gain setting.

I ordered my DT990's yesterday, looking forward to getting them =)

So would a fiio e12 or e17 be better and in which terms?

E10 should be fine.

+1 I'd go for the e10 over the other 2 unless you needed them for going about town.... IMO a dt990 would be a bit awkward for doing walkabouts

What about the surround sound is it good with the e10?Will Razer surround or The ingame from stereo to surround settings still work?

You don't need surround sound. Most games support surround sound instead of using a 3rd party program.

I would personally get the HD 598's. Because they sound really good, and because they're relatively low impedance (50Ω).

Hm yay their price is really good.Though i will go with the dt 990 for me they are 100Euros more worth as i will use them a lot.If i would have a limited budget  i would maybe go with the 598s

DT 990 Pro should be about the same price - no reason to get the non-pro version.

Heared that the premiums sound better are more comfortable,not that much base,wider soundstage.(Better for Competetive Gaming).

Even if these elements are only minimal for me its worth the money as i won't upgrade my heaphones every year and want to get the best out of one buy.But still thanks for the reply.

That's not true...  :rolleyes:

 

The only real difference is in the build, so if you prefer the premium's slightly more extravagant build and want to spend the cash that's fine. Just want you to know all about what you're paying good money for.
