Ok. That definitely sounds (ha!) like they weren't burned in at all. Sibiliance is typical for a fresh set. This thread here, just like the thread about the original Ultrasone HFI 780s, should have plenty of info (it's long though).

Bass-shy, 780s? Really? The original 780s were rather bass-heavy all-around. I don't see how they'd be comparable to open phones in any way?

I needed to get some Comply tips for them to fit right, even two different sizes before I liked the fit. The wired IEMs I used before weren't as comfortable, but the seel seemed to be tighter. These still stay in place nicely when working out or running, even with sunglasses and/or hat they work...

I’ve had my Ultrasone HFI780 for ten years now, but they’ve never sounded this good. My best „upgrade“ in years! :)

In FPS it always felt like clipping or distortion. The combination of ZXR and my headphones (Ultrasone HFI 780) already has very nice positional audio (both heading and height) and doesn't feel like everything was "in your head". They'll surely update their list with more headphones and...

I had the same issues with the amp. Instead of feeling spacious I only had extreme reverb and distortion. I tried it back and forth and never found a setting that I really liked. I’ll wait a while and check back where they might go with this tech.

Does the G6 use a different technology then ZXR or AE-5, for example?

Which amp isn’t...

I guess most people would love what’s the idea behind this. One device for all, hassle-free, no fiddling. In theory, that is. Let’s see if this will ever work with “everybody’s” ears and headphones.

Yes, that screen tells me to log in in order to change my settings. After I do log in (again), it shows the same thing again. I might try reinstalling it, but at least the Android app seems to work normally.

Yes, latest version. I only downloaded it yesterday.

Yes, and stored to the device. I might re-do it if you’re saying it shouldn’t happen, but quirky software is nothing unusual for Creative (at least from my personal experience).

It's extreme with SXFI on, yes, and a tad bright when it’s off (compared to my ZXR). What I don’t understand is the EQ part, especially „game“. I used it to play for a couple of hours last night and there were some great positional moments. But then, looking at the curve it uses, I thought...

My device finally arrived, but I can’t seem to get it setup the right way. I used the hint from the other thread here and chose the Aurvana Live2! profile for my Ultrasone HFI-780 cans (very similar to the Edition 9, not the same quality of course). Each EQ preset I found was tinny and rather...

@RPGWiZaRD Makes sense. The "headphone" setting seems fine with pair of headphones. I never use any SBX when playing music, and I normally pick the stereo direct mode for my speakers. I'd second that it would be great if they allowed all the options in all the modes though.
